Menopause Exercise Programmes in Kilkenny
Your body isn’t the same — and it’s not supposed to be.
If you’re in your 40s or 50s and noticing lower energy, feeling less strong, more stiffness or back pain — or that what used to work no longer works — you’re not alone.
Many women tell me:
“I feel like I don’t recognise my body anymore.”
You’re not doing anything wrong.
Your body simply needs a different, more supportive approach to training.
A different way to train
At IRIE – The Joyful Movement Studio, I offer a specialised approach to exercise for women navigating perimenopause and menopause.
This is not about pushing harder.
It’s about learning how to move and train in a way that supports your body now — so you can feel stronger, more capable and more at ease in your body again.
Why strength matters in menopause
During menopause, your body changes — and so should your training.
- supports metabolism and insulin sensitivity
- helps maintain bone health
- improves joint stability
- reduces aches and pains
- supports pelvic floor and core function
Training well during menopause is about more than lifting weights — it also includes mobility, balance, core coordination and gradual progression.

Menopause Strength Programme
A small-group, coached programme from 20 April designed to support you step by step.
This is not a drop-in class.
It’s a structured programme where we build strength gradually together.
You don’t have to figure it out on your own.
