women’s 40+ fitness & strength coaching

The transition into perimenopause and menopause is a major life stage, one worth celebrating even as it brings real challenges. Hormonal changes in your 40s and beyond can lead to hot flashes, sleep issues, loss of strength, and shifts in body composition that can leave you feeling frustrated or disconnected from your body. But this does not have to be a time of slowing down. It can be a time to thrive, build strength, and feel more powerful than ever.

Coach Bren specializes in helping women over 40 feel strong, capable, and confident through personalized strength and fitness training. She has been through menopause herself and understands the unique needs, frustrations, and goals of this stage of life. Her approach is science-based, compassionate, and adaptable, designed to meet you where you are, whether you are brand new to strength training, returning after time away, or looking to break through plateaus as your body changes.

★★★★★

“My plan was to return to the gym after a lengthy illness but at the age of 76, the motivation just wasn’t there. Coach Bren’s understanding, compassion, and caring personality opened the door for my desire and drive. Each day we met to workout helped me to focus on what I have, not on what I lost. She showed me I was able to improve my mobility, flexibility and agility, and gave me the confidence to try again. Thanks to Coach Bren, my strength and overall wellness are improving weekly.”
