Course overview
This course is a little different from many of our courses at Learning with Experts. It’s brought to you following the global Covid outbreak, to help unite a community of ladies in the north of England, who needed to keep in touch with one another, and their amazing exercise instructor, Val Edge. Val came to us via her son John Edge (a Massachusetts’s Institute of Technology Fellow) and her daughter Karen (a physiotherapist), and in collaboration with Oxford University Innovation.
During these 10 lessons you’ll get to meet people, and do gentle stretches along to music, taught by Val, and get to know the community as it reaches beyond the boundaries of Blackburn.
Join Val and her ladies, in Val’s living room. You’ll feel just like you’re doing your exercise class in your village hall, and can join in wherever you are in the world.
If you’re looking for a like-minded community of people who are keen to try and keep their energy levels up, would like to take part in some gentle exercise, but don’t want to be doing it by yourself, join Val and her students to help keep your spirits up wherever you are in the world.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between PEER and EXPERT options?

- Video lesson tutorials led by your expert tutor
- Downloadable lesson notes
- Option to practise what you learn with lesson assignments
- Group learning within an online interactive classroom of up to 20 classmates

What is an online classroom?
Our online classroom has been developed to allow you to learn from our experts in a sociable environment alongside up to 20 other students. After each video tutorial led by your expert, you will be encouraged to practice what you have learned with optional assignments - these can be seen by the other students in your class, who are free to share their own thoughts and questions with you.
You will be encouraged to take part in an ongoing class discussion where you can discuss ideas, post images or work, and comment on each other’s assignments. It’s a great way to learn from other like-minded people who share your passion from all over the world.
This means not only do you benefit from people who are outstanding in their field, but also from a close-knit group of like-minded people whom you can learn alongside. Group learning has shown to greatly improve not just the experience of studying, but also how well you retain the knowledge, and we have built our classroom experience around this fact.
When can I start my course and how long will it take?
You can start your course any time within 12 months after receipt of your purchase confirmation email. Once you start, you’ll have lifetime access — meaning you can revisit the lesson videos and notes whenever you want.
Our courses are designed so that you can study at your own pace, some prefer to binge learn while others like to spread their studying over a longer period of time - it’s completely up to you. To give you a rough time frame, each lesson video is approximately 30-40 minutes long, and we recommend that you spend around an hour on each assignment.
