Women’s 6 Week Small Group Strength Training

  • You love to move you're body, but you're not sure where to start when it comes to strength training.

  • You want to build or maintain muscles, but you don't feel confident lifting weights.

  • You find big gym classes intimidating.

  • You struggle with pelvic floor symptoms - leaking, prolapse, cranky low back or SI joint/ hip irritation and need support from a knowledgable coach.

I want you to know, strength training isn’t just about building bigger and stronger muscles, it’s also about building denser bones, supporting our pelvic health, improving physical & mental wellbeing and simply ENJOYING movement.

Strength training shouldn't be an intimidating experience. I’m here to offer a more restorative approach.

Women’s Small Group Strength Cycles help you: 

✔️ Build strength and mobility to make everyday movement feel easier
✔️ Reconnect with your pelvic floor and core to prevent leaks, prolapse and pain
✔️ Understand how your body moves, and what it needs to feel strong, confident and more athletic

This is strength training where women feel seen, supported, and capable. The small wins are celebrated and the "I'm feeling run down and need a slower pace" days are honoured.

Small group classes are held in the beautiful and intimate Movement Lab in the heart of Cowes

While the option is available for 1 x weekly, I highly recommend 2+ x weekly to see and feel the best results.

What’s a class like?

WARMUP 

First 10-15 minutes is the warm up where we practice breathwork and movements to prepare the body for the main workout. This may vary slightly from week to week. 

MAIN WORKOUT

The main workout will stay the same with progressions over the 6 weeks (with some variation depending on what works best for each woman). This means you can expect to get really proficient at each exercise and be able to take what you learn into any other movement practice you choose going forward. 

Expect to learn how to squat, hinge, push and pull weights, rotate, move fast, move slow and dig into how positioning the body can really change how an exercise feels. It’s sometimes the tiny adjustnments that make the biggest difference.

CONDITIONING CIRCUIT 

Depending on how everyone goes with the main workout, we sometimes include a conditioning circuit which involves 3-5 stations in a circuit where we’ll be working on cardiovascular fitness and nasal breathing. This circuit will change each week. 

COOLDOWN 

We’ll always have a few minutes of down regulation at the end of the workout. This is where your recovery begins. 

  • Rachel

    “Zoe's classes are a game-changer. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to ensure you fully understand the exercises, not just the proper technique. After taking her classes, I feel stronger, more flexible, and have regained mobility that I haven't had in years. The best part is that I don't have to plan or think about my workouts - I can just show up and trust that I'm getting the targeted strength training my body needs. Highly recommend Zoe's classes to anyone looking to improve their fitness in a supportive and educational environment with someone who really really knows bodies and movement.”

  • Sarah

    It isn’t just an hour of exercise; it’s an hour of deep body awareness, realignment, and strength training that extends far beyond the class. Zoe’s amazing understanding of the body, particularly women’s health, muscle function, and long-term wellbeing is truly invaluable. With my 40 years of gym classes and sports training experience, I thought I knew it all and had accepted back, shoulder, and pelvic pain as a part of life. Zoe has completely changed that perspective and transformed what the next 40 years can look like for me. Her method of slow, intentional strength training is a gift to the next generation. I’m so grateful I found her when I did!

  • Ellie

    Zoe is extremely knowledgeable and talented. She has the ability to provide the right cue to get you working your body properly and she helps you connect to your body. The workout environment is warm, welcoming and fun.

  • Jemma

    Zoes attention to detail is incredible. Each session is tailored for your specific needs and goals. Highly recommend

  • Hen

    I’ve enjoyed every minute of training with Zoe - her depth of knowledge is second to none. I come away from each training session feeling in-balance and more in tune with my body.
