Share of people who go to exercise classes in Northern Ireland 2021

This statistic presents the share of respondents that identified as having attended a keepfit, aerobics, yoga or dance exercise class from 2015 to 2021, in a survey undertaken to assess the experience of sport in Northern Ireland. There has been a gradual increase in the share of respondents that have attended one of these classes from 2015 to 2021. In 2021, 29 percent of respondents identified as having attended a keepfit, aerobics, yoga or dance exercise class. Although it is possible that the substantial increase observed in 2021 may be attributed to the change in methodology discussed within the supplementary notes.

*The source adds the following information: 'Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, data collection for the 2020/21 survey moved from face-to-face interviewing to telephone mode with a reduction in the number of questions. The results from the CHS 2020/21 are not directly comparable to previous years due to the significant changes to the survey in terms of methodology and content. The output from the survey, in terms of the range and depth of topics covered, has been reduced from that of previous years, with the subsequent capacity for detailed analysis constrained.'
