A SERIES of free wellness and “chill-out” events are due to be held on the Waterfront this summer.
At noon every Tuesday and Thursday from tomorrow to 19 September, the Jersey Development Company will be offering 45-minute yoga and tai chi classes led by Joe Houzé and Ray Malloy at Marina Gardens – the grassed area above the Waterfront car park.
The JDC is also planning to host “Hola Fridays!” – DJ sessions described as offering “laid-back Ibiza vibes” – in Trenton Square at the International Finance Centre.
The events will be held between 5pm and 7pm every Friday for nine weeks from 5 July, subject to receiving the Bailiff’s approval.
DJs include Paul Mack, Craig Alder, Malee, Griff, and Sam Sax. Light bites and refreshments will be available from Cooper & Co and The Loft at Big Maggy’s bike shop.
Lee Henry, chief executive of the JDC, said: “We are very keen to bring vibrancy to the Waterfront and to make St Helier the place of choice for living, working and leisure.
“These free events will benefit all those living, working or visiting St Helier’s Waterfront. The lunchtime sessions will epitomise our dedication to promoting health and wellness within St Helier. The sessions aim to engage Islanders in light physical activity. The Friday evening DJ events will hopefully bring people down to the Waterfront for an early evening get-together to enjoy some great music and catch up with family, friends and colleagues.”
No bookings are required for any of the events.
