Jogging is an exercise favourite. Running coach Simona Pancíř Švarcová sets out every week with a group of locals around Britská čtvrť.

The event’s popularity led to its becoming a regular event rather than a one-season phenomena. Local joggers even diligently trained through the gloomy winter months. Each week, the weekly running group usually numbers ten participants who cover between two- and seven-kilometres – as the trainer adapts the class for needs and abilities. "It's about empathizing with how the runners are feeling to make the training a positive experience. It’s not about clocking personal bests…even beginners can join. We support each other," observes Simona.

Come along for a jog every Wednesday at 18:00 at the Bistro Britská, Medunova 2947/1 meet-point. No prior registration is necessary, and the latest info is on Facebooku.

Professional trainer Matěj Bělička leads free circuit training sessions (sponsored by FINEP) at Britská čtvrť’s  outdoor gym  every Tuesday.

Fresh air exercise boosts blood oxygenation, and in the summer will also add a bronze tone to your regular training programme. "Exercise begins with a brief all-body warm-up, followed by stretching, and circuit training. That includes exercise stations which focus on specific muscle groups. Each training session concludes with cool-down muscle stretching and relaxing," adds Matěj.

Just bring warm clothes in case it’s chilly, trainers, ample drinking water, towel, yoga mat, and maybe exercise gloves. Training sessions are free, but are limited to 10 participants per lesson. Get the latest info from the Facebook group. 

Every Tuesday 18:00 - 19:30 at the outdoor gym.

Our range of multifunctional sport areas has increased over the past two years -  starting in Prosek, and then since 2020 also in Malý háj, Britská čtvrť and U Šárky.

At Britská you can either just come and play football, tennis, basketball, etc. when the court is free, or better still use the online reservation system which also includes all key information. 

A small fee is payable, but it’s free with children and during happy hours.

Outdoor gym

All our large developments prioritise sport and exercise. Each new project makes new discoveries about residents' preferences, and recently outdoor gyms have become the most popular option.

Britská čtvrť features our first open-air sports area and all-round fitness machines. It’s proven so popular with exercise enthusiasts that we’ve also rolled out the same concept at Malé háj and Residence u Šárka. All such facilities are free.
