Experience the power of Yoga-informed body weight training.
You’ve probably heard that once you hit 40,
This leads to an increased risk of age related diseases, frailty & loss of independence.
Does this sound familiar?
You’re already active - you love yoga, Pilates, walking and running, but you can feel something's missing...
your strength is moving backwards
you feel all the aches & niggles since peri-menopause hit
your body is tired & you're scared of having to slow down or cut back on those things you love & you need to keep you calm
you're beginning to doubt yourself & your ability to challenge your fitness - it suddenly feels so much harder
you've done the research. You know you need to build strength, but don't want to join a gym!
Don’t stop doing the things you love. Yoga/Pilates are essential for flexibility, balance and mental wellbeing.
You simply need to integrate the layer your body now requires.
After 40, strength training becomes essential.
Not for aesthetics.
For muscle retention.
For bone density.
For joint stability.
For metabolism.
For future independence.
Let's face it, these will only support & enhance your Yoga or running.
Strong & Centred is a 6-week programme designed to compliment your well-loved fitness regime.
You know you need to add in strength training but don’t want to punish your body by doing too much (we know this can be counterproductive as we hit midlife) & you definitely don't want to live in the gym!
This is yoga-informed body weight strength training: mindful, progressive and grounded in the latest research on what women’s bodies actually need.
It bridges the gap between traditional yoga and lifting weights through effective body weight & resistance band strength work, helping you build a body that feels strong, healthy and resilient now and for the years ahead.
This is for you if:
You're regularly active, but you know you need to include focused strength training for long term health & fitness
You feel motivated to exercise & don't want your body to hold you back - you love exercising and you don't want the inevitable muscle loss or fragile bones that will occur without strength training.
You want to build strength in a way that feels supportive and sustainable to compliment yoga/Pilates/running/walking
You’re thinking about the next 10–20 years of your health, not just the next few months
You want to feel strong and mobile without joining a gym or lifting heavy weights
Feel strong, capable and confident in your body
Build lean muscle, improve mobility and move with power, without aches or fear of injury.
Future-proof your body, so you never have to slow down with the things you love
Create sustainable habits & functional strength that support balance, bone density and independence- yes, including getting on and off the floor when you're 80. Adding strength training will only compliment the exercise you're already doing.
Feel energised rather than exhausted by exercise
Sessions are short & designed for women’s bodies and hormones, so you finish feeling stronger & more energised.
Lay a strong foundation for the future
Whether you want to lift weights next or simply use body weight to support your training as you age, you’ll build a body that supports you for decades to come.
Feel supported and held accountable
You’ll know exactly what to do & when to do it, with guidance and encouragement every step of the way.
