This is Rhian’s story with us

I love Strong Mamas. It’s not just another baby class — it’s a community of women supporting and looking out for one another.

After my second child, I was desperate to get back into exercise, but it felt hard to know where to start. This class was recommended to me by others, and I haven’t looked back since.

It has also changed how I exercise outside of class, making me more aware of my body and encouraging me to give myself some grace.

Kayleigh is amazing, always giving great advice and making every session feel like you’re working out with a friend.

Coming to Strong Mamas makes me feel seen.

This is Leanne’s story with us

I was massively into weight training before I fell pregnant but couldn’t train at all during, so I was really worried how training would look after giving birth. I’m so glad I found Kayleigh’s classes, she has given me such a safe space to build my strength back up in a controlled way.

I’ve been going to Strong Mamas since my daughter was 8 weeks old, she’s just about to turn one and even though I’m back at work I still try get to classes!

Kayleigh’s created such a supportive environment and whether you’re new to working out or experienced she will make sure to talk you through everything and tailor the exercises to your ability, she’s super knowledgeable.

The small classes make it really personable and don’t feel daunting when you first start. My daughter also got to know Kayleigh really well which was so helpful, if she was having an off day she felt comfortable enough to be settled by Kayleigh so I could continue my workout!

The Strong Mamas classes were such an important part of my maternity leave and I’m beyond grateful for them. I will always rave about these classes and can’t recommend them enough!

STRONG MAMAS exists because I saw a gap, a space where mums didn’t have somewhere to connect and move their bodies, when there should have been.

I wanted to create a space that mums could truly belong, to be able to combine being a mum and themselves. A space to work on themselves, so they can be both a mum and the person they were before motherhood. A reminder that both can co-exist.

Because I believe this is when you THRIVE as a mum when you give yourself the time to FEEL your best. So I built a space where mums can feel seen and heard and because I craved community and I knew other mums did too.

I created what I couldn’t find and you have made this what it is.

This is Sammi’s story with us

I first joined Strong Mamas when my baby was about 2 months old and haven’t stopped coming back since (she is now 14 months).I have even planned Strong Mamas regularly into my day off now I’m back at work.

Prioritising my fitness is something I felt dropped a bit when becoming a Mum, because you can’t just ‘drop everything’ and go out the door for a run like before having a baby. It is so refreshing to have a space to focus on your fitness without having to worry about finding childcare.

Even in a group, Kayleigh motivates you as an individual—adapting exercises, correcting your form, and pushing you to go heavier when you’re ready.

This is Megan’s story with us

Joining Strong Mamas has been such an incredible, empowering experience. The positive energy from Kayleigh radiates from the moment you walk in, and no matter where you’re at in your journey, you’re met with understanding, encouragement, and zero pressure.

What makes it so special is how motherhood sits right at the heart of everything. It’s not just about lifting weights; it’s about lifting each other up. There’s a real sense of community, where every win - big or small - is celebrated, and everyone supports one another with genuine compassion. It feels like we’re all in it together, navigating motherhood while carving out time for ourselves, baby or toddler in tow.

Since joining a year ago, I am much stronger - not just physically, but mentally too. It’s given me space to do something for myself, to reconnect with my body postpartum, and to feel proud of what it can do. I honestly can’t recommend Strong Mamas enough!

This is Mollie’s story with us

I’ve been attending the Strong Mamas postpartum group since my son was just two months old, and it’s been such a positive experience for me! As someone who has always been active and enjoys fitness, I was worried about finding a way to balance being a mum while still exercising but this group has made that possible.

I especially love that I can still bond with my baby while working out, which makes it feel even more special. Kayleigh is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive throughout every class, and I really appreciate how each session focuses on postnatal recovery alongside strengthening the body in different ways.

I genuinely look forward to going every week, not just for the workout but also to connect with the other mums (and the fantastic coffee at the end of the session). It’s such a welcoming, encouraging community that keeps me feeling motivated and supported every step of the way 💜

Mondays just got better.

We have some very exciting news, due to the huge demand, we’ve decided to open up an additional train with your baby class on Mondays.

This class will fit alongside the other Monday classes at 1.30pm, combined with the classes on Wednesdays & Thursdays. We are now able to offer 112 spaces per month. Which means there are lots more opportunities to lift weights, move your body and sweat!

February class booking will be released tomorrow at 3pm and booking is made via the link in our bio.
