Leanne Wallwork - Movement & Massage

We know that when you're going through menopause, sometimes the last thing you need is another place where you feel like you're not fit enough, flexible enough or doing enough. That's not us, and not what Peri Pilates is about.

We want you to walk through the door, take a breath and feel like you're somewhere you can simply be yourself.

Each week, you'll get:

Pilates movement specifically designed around that week's menopause symptom.
Breathwork to help you slow down and reconnect with yourself
Menopause education to help you understand what's happening in your body
Time to talk about the symptom we're focusing on and the challenges it can bring
Practical resources to take away and use during the week
A 10-minute hypnotherapy session at the end of every class, created around that week's menopause focus, giving you time to relax, reset and take care of yourself

It's not about pushing yourself harder.

It's about understanding your body, supporting yourself and knowing you're not alone.

And you don't need to arrive feeling confident, fit or full of energy.

💗Come exactly as you are. We'll meet you there.

Starts Tuesday 8th September
6.15pm
The Mills Studio, Bolton
£50 for the full 6-week programme

If this sounds like the kind of support you've been looking for, message us. We'd love to have you join us.

Oh yeeeaaaahhhh 🤩

Why movement matters during menopause 💗

We know that menopause can leave you feeling like your body has suddenly changed the rules.

You might feel stiffer than you used to, more tired, less confident in your body or simply not feel like you. And when you're already exhausted, the last thing you need is someone telling you to “just exercise more.”

That's not what we're about.

We want to help you find movement that feels good and supports you through the changes you're experiencing.

Pilates can help you build strength, improve mobility and reconnect with your body. But it's also a chance to stop for an hour, take a breath and do something for yourself.

That's why we created Peri Pilates, to combine movement with menopause support, education and practical tools, so you don't feel like you're trying to figure it all out on your own.

Your body is changing. Let's learn how to support it, rather than fight against it. 💗

If you're struggling with menopause and think this might help, send us a message. We would genuinely love to hear from you.

💗 Week 1: Mood Swings & Anxiety

Does menopause sometimes leave you feeling like you're not quite yourself?

One minute you're okay, and the next you're overwhelmed, emotional, anxious or wondering why everything suddenly feels so much harder.

We get it. You're not failing, and you're not imagining it. Menopause can bring changes that affect how we feel emotionally as well as physically.

That's why we're starting our week one Peri Pilates focusing on mood swings and anxiety.

Our first session combines gentle, calming Pilates movement and breathwork with menopause education and practical tools to help you slow things down, reconnect with your body and feel a little more in control.

And you'll have resources to take away and use between sessions, because the support shouldn't stop when the class ends.

💗Come as you are. Take a breath. Give yourself an hour.

You don't have to do menopause alone.

Menopause can feel isolating, especially when your body and emotions seem to be changing at the same time. Peri Pilates is designed to be a safe, welcoming space where you can move, learn, ask questions and meet other women who understand. No judgement. No pressure. Just support.

💗Meet me, Catherine

I know how easy it can be to become really critical of ourselves during menopause.

Our bodies change. Our sleep changes. Our energy changes. Anxiety can increase, and suddenly we can find ourselves thinking:

“Why can't I cope?”
“Why don't I look like I used to?”
“What's the bloody hell is wrong with me?”

I'm Catherine, a Menopause Coach, NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist, and this is why I wanted to create Peri Pilates with Leanne.

Leanne helps you move, strengthen and reconnect with your body, while I bring the menopause education, mindset and practical tools to support the emotional side too.

💗Together, we’re creating a space where you can put the pressure aside, come as you are and feel supported, understood and welcomed.

Come exactly as you are.

💗Meet Me, Leanne

I know how frustrating it can feel when your body starts to change during menopause. Things that once felt easy can suddenly feel different, and sometimes exercise can feel like another thing you should be doing rather than something you actually really want to do.

That’s one of the reasons I love being part of Peri Pilates alongside Catherine.

I’m a Pilates Instructor, Personal Trainer and Sports Injury Specialist, and I’m passionate about helping women feel stronger, more comfortable and more confident in their bodies, whatever stage of life they're at.

Catherine brings a different but really important part of the programme. As a Menopause Coach, NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist, she helps you understand what’s happening during menopause and gives you practical tools to support the emotional and mental side of things too.

Together, we wanted to create something that supports the whole you, not just your physical body.

Each week, I'll design the Pilates session around the menopause symptom we're focusing on, while Catherine brings the education, support and practical resources to help you take what we've covered into your everyday life.

You don't need to be fit, flexible or experienced with Pilates. You just need to come as you are.

We'll work together from there. 💗

If you've been thinking about joining us, we'd love to have you there. Come and give yourself some time, support and space to feel stronger and more confident through menopause.

There’s something really special about working with someone who just gets it.

We feel so lucky to be working together.

We might bring different skills, experiences and ideas to the table, but we share exactly the same goal, helping people feel better, move better and feel more confident in themselves.

And that’s what makes working together so special.

There’s no competition. No trying to outdo each other. Just two people who genuinely care about what we do, sharing ideas, supporting each other and cheering each other on.

We bounce ideas around, learn from each other and bring our own experience into everything we’re creating.

Because when you find someone who shares your passion for helping others, you don’t just work together, you grow together.

We’re so excited about what we’re building and most importantly, the people we’re going to help along the way.

🩷Here’s to doing something we love, together and making it even better because we’re doing it side by side.

We’ve got this.

We know how you feel.

Menopause can leave you wondering what the hell is going on with your body, everything suddenly feels so different.

Your sleep is disrupted, your mood is up the wall, your energy is literally non-existent, and sometimes you just don't feel like you anymore.

We started Peri Pilates because women deserve more support through menopause. Not just another exercise class, but somewhere you can come, feel understood, even have a laugh, and learn what's happening to your body and, most importantly, take some time for yourself.

Every week, we combine a Pilates session specifically designed around a different menopause symptom, with menopause education and practical resources you can use between classes.

So you get movement, understanding and support, not just an hour of exercise.

💗Because you shouldn't have to figure menopause out on your own.

6 weeks. 6 menopause focuses. £50.
Starting Tuesday 8 September. 6.15pm

Come as you are. We'll start from there.

Spine Shine 🌟

We are into the final 2 weeks of our current Spine Shine block at Move To Mend, and today we are exploring different variations of our exercises using the chair.

Chair-based exercises can be a fantastic way to improve mobility, build strength, support posture, and increase confidence with movement, while allowing exercises to be adapted to suit different abilities and needs.

It’s always encouraging to see everyone finding the variation that works best for them and continuing to move well. 💙
