Training in Corstorphine

Karate, Pilates and a wooded hill.

Corstorphine was a separate village west of Edinburgh until 1920, and its venues are small and specialist. Real Kyokushin Edinburgh teaches Kyokushin karate, Pilates Plus With Tricia and Louise Burchell's studio cover Pilates and yoga, and the Edinburgh Zumba Boys run dance fitness. Corstorphine Tennis Club, the public courts at St Margaret's Park and swimming lessons from Swimming Nature fill out the list.

Corstorphine Hill rises north of the old village: a 161 m wooded ridge whose upper slopes are a local nature reserve, popular with walkers and joggers, with Edinburgh Zoo on its southern side. Its paths make good hill reps, and they go faster with someone setting the pace beside you.
