Public Sessions

We first started public sessions after the enormous success of our workshops at various summer festivals in 2009. We had many people get in touch with us after the events wanting to know more about bocking and could they have another go.

Who are we to say no?

We have 4 pairs of adult stilts and 3 pairs of junior stilts which are all new with very little use. You hire these stilts for the duration of the session and have your own personal tutor to make sure you learn the basics as quickly and as safely as possible.

Choosing the correct size stilt

When we say size we mean the strength of the spring. If the spring is too powerful you will find it very difficult to jump.
Please choose the size closest to your total body weight, with shoes on. If you need help with this please ask us before booking.

Adult 60kg – we have 2 pairs of these
Adult 70kg – we have 1 pair of these
Adult 80kg – we have 1 pair of there

Junior 40kg – we have 2 pairs of these
Junior 50kg – we have 1 pair of these

These stilts are booked on a first come, first served basis.

How do I book?
At present our public sessions happen most Saturday afternoons at Fairwater Leisure Centre and last for 90 mins however sometimes they do not take place as we have bookings at various festivals and events. Exact dates are posted on our facebook page and our members forum.

If you have booked previously you can reserve your space by emailing info@welshbockers.co.uk

When you make a booking we will need to know your name, age, weight and height. This is to ensure you are teamed up with the most appropriate tutor.
Note for your first time you will not spend the entire two hours bocking. The first 30 mins will be spent making sure your stilts and pads are on correctly and health and safety talk is also given.
