Looking for Ladies Strength Classes in Hillsborough?

At All Active Pilates & Physio, we offer physio-led strength training for women in our Hillsborough studio, designed to help you build muscle, protect your bones, improve confidence and feel stronger in everyday life.

Our small group women’s strength classes are welcoming, supportive, and suitable for beginners through to those with previous gym experience.

If you want to feel stronger, more energised and more resilient — this is the class for you.

​

Why Strength Training is Essential for Women

 

Strength training is one of the most important forms of exercise for women, particularly from mid-30s onwards.

Our women’s strength training classes in Hillsborough help to:

• Improve muscle tone and lean muscle mass

• Support bone density and reduce osteoporosis risk

• Strengthen joints and reduce injury risk

• Improve posture and core stability

• Boost metabolism and energy

• Reduce back, hip and knee pain

• Support women during perimenopause and menopause

Strength training is no longer optional — it’s essential for long-term health.

​

Physio-Led Strength Training in Hillsborough

 

Unlike a traditional gym class, our Ladies Strength sessions are delivered within a Chartered Physiotherapist-led environment.

​

With over 20 years of clinical experience, Andrea and the All Active team ensure that exercises are:

• Technically correct

• Progressive and structured

• Safe for women with injuries

• Suitable for osteopenia or osteoporosis

• Adaptable for back, shoulder, hip or knee pain

• Appropriate for postnatal recovery

If you’ve been nervous about joining a gym or unsure how to lift weights safely, this is the perfect place to start.

​

What Happens in a Ladies Strength Class?

 

Our small group strength classes in Hillsborough focus on:

• Functional strength training

• Resistance-based exercises

• Lower body and upper body strength

• Core stability

• Balance and control

• Progressive overload (so you keep improving)

​

We use:

• Dumbbells

• Barbells (when appropriate)

• Resistance bands

• Bodyweight training

• Functional movement patterns

You’ll be coached through technique, breathing, posture and progression so you build confidence alongside strength.

​

Strength Training for Menopause & Bone Health

 

Many of our members join specifically for menopause strength training in Hillsborough.

Strength training can help:

• Combat muscle loss

• Improve bone density

• Support hormonal changes

• Reduce joint aches

• Improve sleep and mood

• Increase confidence during midlife

If you are navigating perimenopause or menopause, strength training is one of the most effective tools available — and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
