Walking

I offer a range of small group women only walks in the Malvern Hills, Worcestershire, Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Forest of Dean and Wales.  

We also take on National Walking Trails together.  So far we have completed the Malvern Hills End to End, Worcestershire Way and Cotswold Way in 2024.  

In 2025 we are taking on Gloucestershire WayWychavon Way and from September 2025 we will be taking on the Seventeen Summits: Malvern Hills peaks.  Head to National Trails Walks together, below to find out more.  

I’m delighted to also offer 2-3 walking retreats for women every year.  So far in 2025 we’ve visited Dartmoor and Dorset.  

As well as a range of 6-10 week walking programmes for women.  These are designed to help you feel more confident on hills, uneven ground, improve your fitness and stamina and we’ll often work towards a shared goal. 

Sometimes it may be focused on a particular walking skill e.g. map reading and navigation, empowering you to plan and enjoy your own walks too.  

Women love to join my small group walks because they want someone else to do all of the route planning and logistics for our day together.  They love stopping and sharing views, stories and walking at a comfortable pace so that we can discover new places together.  

We love to share mindful moments on our walks, learn some fun facts along the way and best of all you’ll meet a great community of likeminded women who often become friends.

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. 

For most of the online classes we use dumb bells or you can improvise with items you would most likely have at home.  Otherwise you can also just use your own body weight.  

 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 don’t always need 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.
