Get Out Glasgow News!

27th January 2025

The Get Out Glasgow group provides free introductions to sport and physical activity for LGBTIQ+ people in Greater Glasgow.

Over the past month we’ve run two yoga taster sessions with Yoga Ema at the Wee Retreat. 13 participants are continuing onto our 4 week yoga course which starts this week. 

We also ran a self defence taster session with Sekumai Shoto Budo in Firhill and a bouldering taster session with Glasgow Queer Adventures at the Prop Store. Participants in the bouldering taster session have been invited to attend a top-roping taster session at Glasgow Climbing Centre which will be followed by an introduction to climbing course where they can get certified to climb independently.

Next week is our annual LGBT History Month ten-pin bowling tournament at Hollywood Bowl where Get Out Glasgow, Trans Active and Just Active will join teams from our LGBTIQ+ sports club network to compete for the West Cup.

If you’d be interested in writing a blog to share your experience of accessing LGBTIQ+ inclusive sport and physical activity check out our top tips and contact robin@leapsports.org with your ideas.
