An Easton mum is organising a boot camp to help people lose weight.

Soeli Devane, is launching the six-week boot camp of the Amazon Total Body Workout next month.

The extreme fitness class was devised by the 27-year-old after she put on five stone after giving birth to her son.

Ms Devane said her classes help people to continue burning fat even after the workout.

She said: "The Amazon workout is a short, fast and explosive training session. Explosive training is the secret to melting away stubborn body fat and will leave you feeling full of vitality.

"The class is structured for the hard work at the start and then deep stretching and a mild meditation to finish. Most people when training do not move out from their comfort zone and rarely push for new limits. This workout will take you there."

Ms Devane already teaches the Amazon workout at 11am on Tuesday and Sundays at Horfield Leisure Centre, as well as on Thursdays at Easton Leisure Centre.

This course will be composed of slower and more focussed teaching of the exercises in the workout.

"It's no walk in the park but if you want real results then you will have to put in the work and try hard," she said.

"Only you truly know what your limits are. All people need is determination to succeed. That's what the fearsome Amazon warriors had."

Places in the class are limited to 15. The boot camp takes place from November 18 to December 23 on Wednesdays from 6-7pm. The cost of the six weeks is £30 and the classes take place at South Bristol Sports Centre, West Town Lane, Bristol.
