1:1 Coaching for Women Over 40 | Strength, Health & Confidence1

My 1:1 coaching is designed for women over 40 who want personalised support with movement, strength, and lifestyle habits during peri-menopause, menopause, and beyond.

I specialise in women’s health and love getting to know you as a person.  Everything we do together is tailored, because no two women are the same.

Who I Work With

Most women I support are looking for:

  • A friendly, supportive, non-judgemental space
  • A break from diet culture and unrealistic expectations
  • A more positive relationship with movement and exercise
  • Accountability and structure to build long-term habits
  • Simple, realistic ways to feel stronger and healthier in daily life
  • Exercise that feels enjoyable, rather than punishing


Many come to me disliking gyms or having never enjoyed exercise at school. Together, we change your approach to exercise and movement completely.

My Approach

We focus on:

  • Strength training and everyday functional movement
  • Confidence-building through achievable progress
  • Habits that fit into your real, busy life
  • Long-term sustainable change (not quick fixes)

Weight loss may happen naturally as a result of feeling stronger, healthier, and more consistent, but it is never our sole focus.

Simply pop me a message to share your story and I’m always happy to have a phone/in person conversation and cuppa.

Sally’s story.

I have been working with Rachel for almost 5 years now.  Having recently retired, I wasn’t active, I felt over weight and was looking for ways to meet new people and enjoy exercising.  

I didn’t want to join the gym or go to a local class.  I started to look for local small groups that involved outdoor activities and I stumbled across Rachel’s Couch to 5km running programme. 

I love Rachel’s welcoming, warm and supportive nature and no matter what level you are at she will find a way to help you progress at your own pace.  

She always motivates me to try new things.  This has made me feel fitter, happier and more resilient.  I’ve also developed new friendships and I’ve lost weight. Last year I amazed myself by completing a half marathon, 5 years ago I couldn’t even run for 8 minutes. 

If you’re not sure what activities you’d like to try then why not reach out to Rachel, I am sure she will be able to help you find something and you will never look back. 

FAQ's

It depends on what type of programme or session you are looking at.  I offer a broad range of activities which caters for the complete beginner up to more experienced and fitter individuals.  All classes and activities will be given a level type it’s suitable for, but if you’re not sure then please get in touch. 

I have a range of cycling programmes on offer from the complete beginner to those who would like to take on a 100km bike ride.  For my zero to cycling hero programme it doesn’t matter what type of bike you have, in fact we would love it if you’ve just dusted off your bike and haven’t ridden it for years.  For the Sportdivas course you will need a hybrid with road tyres or a road bike. 

All of my guided walks are graded, as well as information about the distance.  My guided walks will vary from Easygoing to Moderate and Challenging or Strenuous.  Whilst the walks are graded, we never leave anyone behind and will walk at the pace of the slowest walker. 

Most of the Healthy Habits hub we use equipment that you would most likely have at home or we just use body weight exercises.  Otherwise if it is a special themed week you may need something specific which you will need to get hold of beforehand.  Sometimes I do pop up masterclasses/workshops where the equipment is provided and included in the cost. 

The face to face activities will vary in venue, especially the guided walks and the cycling programmes, as these tend to move around each week/month.  I often use Norton Parish Hall and my studio too which is based in Malvern.  All activities will give you details about the venue location first.

Yes absolutely.  Most of my clients come to my studio but the beauty of personal coaching is it’s tailored for you and that includes the venue, so if you’d like 1:1 coaching at your home then please get in touch.  

That’s fine, let’s chat first.  All of my clients are screened before you take part in an activity, this is so I can get some more information about any injuries or previous medical history so that I can advise you accordingly and offer you the right support.

My guided walks take place all year round, so I will always advise you on a kit list on what to bring for each walk.  The cycling programmes will also need some specialist equipment/clothing but if you’re not sure we will also teach you what is best to use.  For online classes I always recommend loose fitting clothing and something you can easily move around in.
