+ Women Exercise is an exercise physiology class focused on helping females during a variety of women’s health conditions and their fitness journey.

This class is for all women, including those experiencing conditions such as menopause, fertility issues, endometriosis, PCOS, and more. It is designed to support you through the Climacteric life stage- The 5 years leading up to and following menopause (typically around age 40 and beyond). Whether you’re managing hormonal shifts, fertility challenges, or chronic conditions, this class offers a holistic approach to improving your health, fitness, and strength during this transformative period.

Who is this class suited for?
