Who it's for
This is for you if…
- You are in your 60s, 70s or 80s and have never really trained before
- You have been meaning to start for a while and keep putting it off
- You want to feel steadier on your feet and more confident moving about
- The idea of a gym puts you off entirely
- You would rather start in a small group of women in the same boat
This probably isn't for you if…
- You are already training regularly and want to be pushed hard — HER or Small Group PT will suit you better.
What it is
Strength, confidence and movement for women in their 60s, 70s and 80s. Three weeks, in a small group, starting from wherever you are now.
THRIVE is a brand new three-week course built for women who have never trained, or who have not trained in a very long time. No experience needed, and genuinely no expectation that you can already do anything.
It is 45 minutes, once a week, in a small group in the HER women-only studio. Everything is taught with options, you can sit down whenever you want to, and nobody is watching you.
The aim is simple: to leave feeling steadier, stronger and more confident than when you arrived — and to show you that strength training is for you too, whatever anyone has told you.
A small group
Everyone starts in the same place, so there is nobody to keep up with.
Built for beginners
No experience, no kit and no fitness required. Every movement has an easier option.
45 minutes, once a week
Three Tuesday mornings. Enough to feel a difference, small enough to actually commit to.
A women-only studio
Light, calm, full of plants, and not a gym. In Chickerell, Weymouth.
What you'll get out of it
- Feel steadier and more confident on your feet
- Build strength that makes everyday things easier — stairs, shopping, grandchildren
- Improve balance and mobility
- Understand how to move safely, so you can keep going
- Meet other women doing exactly the same thing

What the women here say
Had the most amazing time at Sam's yoga retreat in Capileira. A perfect start to each day with morning yoga followed by stunning hikes in the mountains with delicious food and lovely company, all made extra special by Sam and Marco's extra touches. It was my first time traveling abroad and was such an incredible experience from start to finish, arrived home feeling ready to take on the world. Can't thank them enough, would highly recommend 😁
Had a wonderful time with Sam and Marco, my girlfriends loved it too. They added a special touch and went that extra mile . Can't wait for next years
Sam is friendly and approachable . I had the pleasure to meet Sam and Saira on Saturday 31st May at a Soul Medicine retreat that they both organised. Little did I know what to expect ( first time experience for me) this was far better than anticipate, the setting, lighting, yoga, food was divine. Highly recommend as best way to meet like minded people. 🙏 Namaste. 🤗

Questions
Questions people ask
I have honestly never exercised. Is that a problem?
No — that is exactly who this is for. Everyone in the room will be starting from the same place, and every single movement has an easier version.
What if I cannot get down on the floor?
Then we do not go on the floor. Everything can be done standing or seated, and Sam will show you how before you have to ask.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothes you can move in, trainers, and a bottle of water. That is it — all the equipment is here.
Can I come with a friend?
Please do. Most people find the first session much easier with someone they know, and you can book two places together.
What happens after the three weeks?
CONFIRM: what THRIVE graduates move on to — an ongoing group, a discount, or a second block.
I have a health condition or an injury. Can I still come?
Very likely yes, but please get in touch first so Sam knows about it and can plan around it.
