About Our Classes
Strength training, bone loading and cardiovascular fitness are essential for maintaining strength and bone health and healthy aging, but it can be daunting to know what to do and how to structure it.
Our weekly group classes support women navigating perimenopause and beyond with functional strength training, bone-loading exercises and short high-intensity efforts. These three components of training are essential to help you build capacity, stay strong and prevent age-related declines.

What Does The Evidence Say?
Why strength training, jumping and high intensity intervals are included in the Moving Through Menopause Program.
Why Strength Training?
In the program, you’ll use free weights, resistance bands and bodyweight exercises to progressively build strength. Research shows that high-volume, progressive strength training is key for maintaining muscle, supporting physical activity and improving hormonal and metabolic health — including heart rate, blood pressure and menopausal symptoms.
Why Jumping?
Bone-loading exercises, such as jumping and dynamic impact movements, are crucial for maintaining bone strength and reducing age-related bone loss. Research shows that activities that apply stress to bones stimulate bone remodeling, improving bone density and long-term skeletal health. These exercises are included in the program to support bone resilience and reduce fracture risk as you age.
Why High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)?
Hormonal changes during perimenopause can affect energy, metabolism and overall wellbeing — which is why sprint efforts at 80–90% intensity are included. Short bursts of high-intensity work, repeated 4–6 times with recovery, can improve cardiovascular health, support metabolism, manage weight and reduce fatigue and hot flashes.
