Things looked a lot different when Ms Green started getting into fitness nearly 40 years ago.
“Back then the fitness was in the Jane Fonda days with the more jumping and jiving the better it was – but it’s not like that now,” said Sue.
“It’s a lot more low impact and you can get just as much out of a low impact class as you can doing jumping jacks.”
Ms Green said back in those days wearing headbands, leg warmers and leotards to the gym made her feel “like the bees knees”.
The 80s attire was out in force on Monday as 100 people packed into the sports hall for the final session lead by Ms Green in a rainbow tutu and matching sweat bands.
“It’s been emotional, we’ve been with her for such a long time,” said participant Karen Davidson.
“She was an inspiration because she kept us going, there were times where you would come in not wanting to do any exercise and she’d get going then you wanted it to go on forever.”
“I’m really going to miss her, I’ve been going to her classes since before she came to the leisure centre” said Marlene Hill.
“She’s just so nice and will do anything for anybody.”
