Power Vibe, a new independently-owned Power Plate studio, has been unveiled in Tonyrefail, South Wales, by Helen and Paul Hoare following the conversion of a former office in the town.

The pair have invested £40,000 into the new fitness studio, which has been equipped with five Power Plate pro5 machines and will offer 25-minute classes that start every half an hour.

Different classes will be held on each day to allow members to select a programme that meets their needs, with the timetable including legs; bums and tums; and upper body workouts.

Classes cost £4.95 per session with multiple packages available. There are also plans to offer new classes during 2012, such as Power Plate Boxing.

Helen Hoare said: "I quickly learned that Power Plate benefited many people, from those looking to improve their fitness to those with health issues such as arthritis and cystic fibrosis. I decided I wanted to offer local people the chance to experience this revolutionary product themselves."
