Training in Otley

River, forest park and studios.

Chippindale Swimming Pool and Club Energy are Otley's main indoor options, and the town is well served for Pilates, with Jan Bryce Wharfedale Pilates, Leiko and Pilates in Motion among them. Soma Wellness, Omnia and Lishi add yoga and tai chi, Otley AIM and the Karate Centre teach martial arts, and the town has its own rugby, squash, athletics and sailing clubs.

The Chevin rises on the south side of the valley and holds a parkrun, while Wharfemeadows Park follows about 2 miles of riverbank. Otley Cycle Club was founded in 1927, and the Tour de France came through in 2014. Hills like these are easier with a training partner.
