What is SYP Unlock?

If you spend most of the day on a laptop at the kitchen table, your hips get tight, your lower back gets stiff and your shoulders roll forward. SYP Unlock is a small-group class in Archway built to reverse that, one session at a time. You test how stiff you are at the start, work through mobility and strength, then retest at the end so you can feel the difference.

Who it's for

  • You work from home or sit at a desk for 6+ hours a day
  • Your hips feel tight when you stand up or walk upstairs
  • Your lower back aches by the afternoon
  • You can't touch your toes or squat down comfortably anymore
  • You want to move better without spending hours stretching

Inside a 45-minute SYP Unlock class

0-5 min

Desk Check

Three quick self-tests: deep squat hold, hip flexor test and toe touch. You note your score.

5-15 min

Open the Hips

90/90 switches, couch stretch, frog rocks and Cossack squat holds to free the hip joint.

15-25 min

Spine & Shoulders

Cat-cow, thread the needle, band pull-aparts and wall slides to undo the laptop slump.

25-38 min

Strength in New Range

Paused goblet squats, single-leg Romanian deadlifts, glute bridge marches and dead bugs, so the new range sticks.

38-43 min

Walk It Out

Bear crawls, lateral band walks and overhead carries to put it all together.

43-45 min

Retest

Repeat the Desk Check and compare your score.

Why it's different

The before-and-after retest. You don't have to take our word for it - you see your own score change in the same session.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be flexible to join?

No. The class is built for stiff people. Every stretch has an easier version and you work at your own level.

Is it just stretching?

No. Around half the class is stretching and mobility, the other half is light strength work in your new range, which is what makes the change last.

I have back pain. Can I come?

If you have ongoing or severe back pain, check with your GP or physio first. Tell us about any injury on the booking form and we'll adapt the exercises for you.

How often should I come?

Once a week makes a noticeable difference. Twice a week, plus the desk reset at home, is even better.

How much does it cost?

£15 per class. Each class is 45 minutes and capped at 10 people.

Where is the class?

Indoors in a church hall in Archway, London N19, so it runs whatever the weather. We send the exact address and entrance details when you book.
