Perimenopausal or menopausal? This new exercise class is just for you
New strength training class for women in perimenopause and menopause.
Are you navigating the changes of perimenopause or menopause and looking for an exercise class designed to support your body and minda fitness solution that truly supports your body and mind?
My new six-week strength training course is designed exclusively for women like you — because your body deserves a program that meets it where it is, not where it used to be.
Why strength training is important for menopause
During menopause, oestrogen levels naturally decline and your body goes through significant changes — including increased risk of bone density loss, muscle loss (sarcopenia), weight gain, fatigue and joint pain. But strength training is one of the most effective, evidence-based ways to combat these changes and feel stronger, more energised and back in control.
Benefits of the class
Boost mood and reduce stress levels
Strength training has been and scientifically proven to ease menopause symptoms, from reducing anxiety and stress, and increasing mood and mental clarity.
Build lean muscle and boost metabolism
Targeted resistance training helps build and maintain lean muscle, which naturally decliines during midlife. It also boosts metabolism, meaning you burn more calories even after your workout so it can aid with fat loss and improve body composition.
Stronger bones
Weight-bearing exercises are key to preventing bone loss and reducing the risk of osteoporosis, a condition that women in menopause are more at risk of.
Improve sleep quality and energy levels
Regular exercise can improve sleep quality - something that is often disrupted during this transitional time.
Physical activity has been shown to improve energy levels because it increases blood flow, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to your cells. This in turn releases those feel-good hormones endorphins that boost mood and help to fight fatigue. When you exercise regularly it also strengthens the heart and lungs, and this makes daily chores feel less tiring.
Feel supported in a friendly, like-minded community
Train alongside women who understand what you’re going through. No judgment — just support, empowerment, and progress at your own pace.
Expertly designed for hormonal shifts
Led by me, a certified Level 3 personal trainer, every session is safe, effective and tailored for women going through this transitional stage of life.
Who the class is for
This class is specifically designed for women in perimenopause, menopause and post-menopause who want to feel stronger, more energised and confident in their bodies.
