We receive so much advice telling us how to exercise to stay healthy during our menopausal and post-menopausal years.  If we were to follow it all then we could

• avoid cognitive decline
• manage our body composition
• increase our strength
• support our bone health
• strengthen our hearts
• boost our mental health
• reduce inflammation
• raise our metabolism
• dampen our stress levels

A long list of benefits, and one that leaves you wondering how much time is needed to remain healthy, active and independent into your older years. It’s no wonder so many of us are at a loss as to where to start, what to prioritise and how much to include in our lives.

We’re told we should be doing cardio, strength and flexibility training, work on our balance, our mobility, our speed and agility. There should be heavy loads, high impact, intensity, active recovery and mindful practice.

Linking actions with benefits and identifying were the many overlaps lie, this workshop will show you how in just 3 or 4 hours a week you will put yourself on a path towards optimal health and long-lasting physical independence. Read on to find out more about this workout workshop…

Doors will open at 08:30 and we start at 09:00.

For whom: women

Specifically, women seeking to optimise their health and well-being as they move towards and transition through their menopause, and age with grace.

What you will do: move with purpose

The Home Workout Workshop outlines the three pillars that make up an exercise programme designed to support you and your body as you journey through menopause and beyond.

And by “outlines” what do we mean?  There will be a little bit of theory, but it’s absolutely going to involve movement, energy, physical experience and a whole lot of fun, and at the same time provide you with your home workout plan, a plan that meets your needs, fits into your life and sets you up for success.

There will be practical advice about the equipment you might want to have to hand, guidance around nutrition and fuelling for your workout, and the importance of adequate recovery in order that you reap the benefits of all that you do.

Leave with: the best feeling

• energy, a sense of achievement and an eagerness to put all you’ve learnt and experienced into practice
• the power to support your health, to manage your menopausal symptoms, to remain vital as you age
• two opportunities to follow-up with us after the workshop, enabling you to progress your training based on how you feel and the positive changes you’ve experienced so far
• the awareness that while as a woman you are unique in your hormonal journey, you are not alone in making it

The investment: time and energy

• 3 hours
• energy, curiosity and drive
• R950

Come with curiosity, questions and a willingness to try new things in a space that is safe and supportive.
