Classes

There are a variety of online, face to face classes and workshops with peri and post menopausal women in mind.  What’s even better is it doesn’t matter if you don’t live in Worcestershire you will find a growing library of On Demand workouts for you to try.  Simply head to my Members Area to find out what’s currently on offer.  

You might be looking to feel stronger, more toned or improve your balance.  Or maybe you’re looking to enjoy moving with a group of supportive and likeminded women or simply discover how to use a piece of equipment or learn a new skill. 

As women over 40, we feel more nervous and less confident about trying new things.  I’m here to inspire and empower you to feel more confident trying new things.  We often try something new together throughout the year in a supportive, fun and nurturing way.  What better way to do that than with a group of likeminded women. 

So far we have been paddle boarding, climbing, bungee fitness, wobble boarding and even tried our hand at map reading.   

Why not take a look at the classes and workshops on offer.

What people say?

I was really worried about signing up to the 'Stronger for longer membership' as I haven’t exercised in years. I am newly retired, over weight and didn’t want people to see me exercising. I love how the movements we learn can easily be integrated into your day. I now love getting out of bed every morning to try my balance challenge whilst brushing my teeth.

Course
I have been attending Rachel's Strength and Conditioning class now for almost a year and I absolutely love the classes. As a cyclist and runner I know the importance of strength training and what has been most noticeable is I used to have a shoulder injury and since doing these classes my injury has now completely gone. Thank you Rachel.

FAQ's

It depends on what type of class  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 Upton Hill Centre 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.
