This isn't just another fitness class.
It's a complete body and mindset transformation programme.
Every workout is carefully planned to build on the last, helping you become stronger, fitter and more confident week after week.
With expert coaching, nutrition support, accountability and a community that genuinely cares, you'll always know what you're working towards.
Ever walked into a gym class and wished the floor would swallow you up?
The music you can't hear the instructor over. Everyone seeming to know the routine except you. The mirrors. The feeling that you should have got fit first, before you were allowed to turn up.
I've heard it hundreds of times. And I want to be really clear with you… you're not lazy, you're not unfit, and you're not doing it wrong. You were just put in a room that was never built for you.
That's exactly why I built Mindset. Classes where somebody knows your name. Where a coach shows you the movement, watches you do it, and changes it if your knee or your back or your energy says otherwise. Where nobody's looking at you, because they're all getting on with their own session.
Seven years of helping women over 30 has taught me one thing. The hardest part isn't the training. It's making that first decision.
We don't run twenty different classes with clever names. We run two things, and we run them properly. Between them you get strength, conditioning and boxing, which is everything a woman over 30 actually needs.
This is where most women start.
Coached every step of the way in a small, supportive group, you'll build strength,
improve fitness and learn how to train properly.
Strength training isn't just about looking toned. It helps protect your bones, boosts your metabolism, supports hormone health and keeps you strong for life.
This isn't another fitness class. It's coaching, accountability and a community that helps you become the strongest version of yourself.
Boxing fitness to drum & bass.
Lights down. Music up. Gloves on.
Fight Klub is where stress disappears, confidence grows and fitness improves without feeling like exercise.
You'll leave stronger, fitter and with a smile on your face every single time.
If you've never enjoyed the gym, this might just be the workout you fall in love with.
Strength keeps your muscles and bones strong as you get older.
Cardio strengthens your heart, improves longevity and helps you live a longer, healthier life.
Boxing sharpens your mind, relieves stress and builds confidence like nothing else.
Train all three, and you won't just change how you look…
You'll change how you feel.
Lift weights to protect your muscles and bones. Do cardio to strengthen your heart and increase your lifespan. Box to reduce stress, build confidence and enjoy every workout.
That's why we don't just do one thing: we train for life.
You arrive. Someone says hello and knows who you are. There's a warm-up, then a coached block of strength work, then some conditioning to finish. Some days it's dumbbells and squats. Some days it's gloves and pads. It's over in 45 to 60 minutes.
Everything gets adjusted to you. Every single exercise can go up or down, so a woman on her first ever session and a woman who's been with us for years can train side by side in the same room. Nobody's watching you. Nobody's timing you against anyone else.
So who's it for? Women over 30. All levels. Total beginners, absolutely. Women who haven't trained in years, or ever. Women in midlife whose bodies have started doing things nobody warned them about, which is why we also run menopause and midlife training here in Southampton.
You're capable of far more than you think. I say that to every woman who walks in nervous, and I've been right every time.
You'll find us at Pound 4 Pound Palace, Drivers Wharf, Northam Rd, Southampton SO14 0PF. If you've been searching for fitness classes for women near me and you're anywhere in or around Southampton, that's us.
Early before work, in the middle of the day, or after the school run… there's a slot that fits. That's rather the point.

I'd rather show you the receipts than tell you we're brilliant. So here they are.

Women transformed at Mindset
Helping women over 30 in Southampton
This is a complete coaching system, not a collection of classes.
Train with purpose. Fuel your body. Stay accountable.
Progressive strength and fitness coaching designed to build muscle, burn body fat and improve your health for life.
Simple, realistic nutrition coaching that works in the real world: no fads, no restrictions, just sustainable habits.
Regular check-ins, expert coaching and an incredible community to keep you motivated and consistent until your new habits become your lifestyle.
No. You don't need to be fit before you come. That's what we're here for. Every class is coached, and every exercise can be made easier or harder to suit you, so a total beginner and a woman who's trained for years can work side by side in the same session. There's no minimum fitness level and no judgement. You turn up as you are and we take it from there.
Yes. Every class at Mindset is women-only, and most of the women training with us are over 30, over 40 and over 50. No men, no twenty-somethings, no mirrors to dread. That's the whole point of the studio, and it's the reason women tell me they finally feel comfortable enough to actually train.
Classes run for 45 to 60 minutes, including the warm-up and the cool-down. That's long enough to do proper work and short enough to fit around a job, the school run and real life. We run sessions from early morning to evening Monday to Friday, plus Saturday mornings.
No contracts. No pressure. No awkward sales pitch. Just 7 days of classes, meeting the coaches, getting to know the ladies, and finding out what your body can still do. Come and see for yourself.
