About
Hey I’m Libby,
I work with women at every stage of life and every level of fitness.
Whether you’re completely new to the gym, getting back into exercise, navigating pregnancy or menopause, or simply want to feel stronger and more confident as you get older, I’m here to make exercise feel comfortable, achievable and enjoyable.
I’m passionate about helping women understand the importance of strength training at every age — from building muscle and confidence to supporting bone health, mobility, independence and overall wellbeing.
And it doesn’t stop when your session ends. I provide nutritional guidance, practical advice and ongoing support to help you make positive changes outside the gym too.
No intimidation. No judgement.
Whatever your starting point, you’re welcome here.

I have been working with Libby for the last 8 months and can highly recommend her. Libby is kind, encouraging and great fun to work with. She made sure my basics and technique were solid before pushing me to achieve more than I thought I could.

After only a few sessions with Libby, I am already feeling stronger and noticing improvement in my fitness. Libby makes sure there is a variety of exercises, listens to my goals and is able to push me while keeping it enjoyable. I always look forward to the next session!
Laura
Very knowledgeable, engaging friendly. Always keen to assist

I am now on my 5th block of 10 sessions with Libby and the progression in my fitness and strength is brilliant. Libby also listens and my last block we concentrated on fat/weight loss rather than strength which I definitely prefer. With her guidance and clever programming with sneaky cardio in I dropped 10lbs in weight. Back to lovely strength now but I know she will incorporate excercises to maintain my weight

Had a PT session with Libby today and, as always, she was brilliant. I feel that I'm getting exactly what I'd hoped for. Libby is super supportive but also pushes me and I always come away feeling really good!

I am halfway through a block of 10 PT sessions with Libby. I always look forward to them knowing she will have put together a "clever" programme that constantly makes me improve. My health is allready feeling the benefit with reduced pain in my elbow, stability and strength increasing.
I will be continuing after my initial 10 sessions are complete.

Had a PT session with Libby today and she was excellent- really attentive to what I was looking to get from the gym and had a variety of exercises I could do to hit my goals. She is really good at tailoring the exercises to you and very friendly and pushes you without putting too much pressure on you. Would really reccomend!
