Classes

There are a variety of online and face to face classes (both indoors and outdoors) plus workshops with peri and post menopausal women in mind.   

Whether you’re looking to become more active, feel stronger and better about yourself, I’m sure you will find the right class just right for you.  

You might be a woman who loathes exercise, has never classed yourself as sporty and simply looking to keep doing the things you love as you age.  

The Stronger for Longer Club and my 10 Days of Nutritious Movement Challenge is a great place.  We have also just welcomed our first International customer, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t live in Worcestershire.  

As women over 40, we feel more nervous and less confident about trying new things.  The fitness industry can certainly make us feel inadequate or overwhelmed. 

I’m here to inspire and empower you to feel more confident so that exercise is playful, fun and motivating.  I also want to help you realise that no matter what shape or size you are exercise is for everyone and is always welcoming and inclusive.  

We also love to try new activities together.  So far we have been paddle boarding, climbing, bungee fitness, boogie bounce, wobble board and cold water swimming.  

Why not take a look at the classes and workshops currently on offer below.  Head to my main Home page for the latest events.

Crafternoon Tea

I'm delighted to be collaborating with Stitching Peggy for a mini summer retreat which we've called 'Crafternoon tea'.  The retreat is going to be in the beautiful grounds of the Cobhouse, near Martley.  

If you're looking for some time to relax, experience crafting in a fun way and share a gentle summer themed stroll then this is the perfect retreat for you.  


We will start the day with a short stroll outdoors and grounding meditation.  After being inspired with some outdoor creativity, we will then head back begin our crafting activity which is making our own earrings.  


We will also get to enjoy a delicious afternoon together, with plenty of tea, coffee and cake.

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.

I have been attending Rachel's Outdoor classes now for almost a year and I absolutely love them. As a cyclist and runner I know the importance of strength training but don't like typical gym based strength classes. What has been most noticeable is I used to have a shoulder injury and since doing these classes my injury has now completely gone and my running and cycling is improving. 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 Easy to Moderate and Challenging or Strenuous. 

Our community is about supporting women together to enjoy walking together, so therefore we never leave anyone behind and will always walk at the pace of the slowest walker.  

If you’re not sure if the walk is the right level for you, then please get in touch, I’m always happy to chat on the phone.  

You don’t need any specialist equipment.  I never want equipment to be a barrier for you enjoying moving.  

In fact I would always encourage you to use things that you would most likely have at home.  

For any specialist workshops introducing you to a new piece of equipment then these will be included in the cost of the class.  

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 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.

As with equipment, I never want kit or clothing to be a barrier for you.  In fact you can come join any of my online classes in your PJs if that suits.  

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.  If there is anything you need and you’re not sure of, then charity shops, Facebook Marketplace or Vinted are a great place to search for these things.  

For my cycling programmes you just need to be in something your comfortable in.  I always want to help you find ways to normalise cycling, so that it’s not about the kit.
