EmpowerHER Health & Fitness

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym last September after my youngest started school and I decided to start putting myself and my health first. I was embarrassed about my level of fitness and worried I wouldn’t be able to keep up. I kept putting off joining anywhere because I was so unfit and clueless but that meant I was stuck in a vicious cycle! Honestly though, the welcome I received was just incredible. From day 1 I felt encouraged and I became hooked on classes. I love seeing the difference it has made, not only in my fitness and my weight but also in my confidence. The members are so supportive and the coaches are the best, they help with absolutely everything -from nutrition to adapting exercises for injuries. I really cannot recommend it highly enough, it’s definitely my happy place (unless there are loads of burpees on the board ). Joining is the best decision I’ve ever made in regards to looking out for myself.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love everything about this place! The only question I have asked myself is why I didn’t join sooner. This is not just a gym it’s like an extended family. Not just the people who work there but all the members we all support each other mentally & physically. In just 5 months I am stronger, fitter and happier. I’ve not had one session that has been the same as another so you never get bored ❤️

Fantastic experience: After lacking motivation for the best part of 4 years and in that time becoming a mum to 2 kids (now 2years old) I was sat scrolling through FB as I did every night. I came across an ad for Empowerher fitness and something just clicked. I'd not done anything for myself for 4years, now heavier and fatigued. So I had a look and joined, it was time to do something for me. From the moment I set foot through the door I was greeted with so many smiles, that first session wasn't easy but I wanted to come back because it felt great. Growing up I didn't have the same body type as the girls in my boarding school, I've always been bigger which made me feel out of place. I can honestly say that I feel like I've found my place here, everyone is different, different abilities, different fitness levels and it just fits. The trainers couldn't do any more for you, your supported every step of the way. This isn't just a fitness place for women it's exactly like it's name, it empowers women to be their best self mentally and physically.

Fantastic experience: Just the best women you will ever come across. Supportive, friendly, funny, caring! The list really does go on. I’ve been coming for just over half a year and I feel like I’ve found my gym family

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing gym! Everyone is welcome and you leave feeling so good. You are encouraged to do your best and your body definitely thanks you for it

Fantastic experience: I started at the gym postpartum taking advantage of the strong Mumma classes which have been fantastic! My partner worked away and I don’t have family nearby so without these classes I would have struggled to exercise postpartum. The classes are fun, social and most importantly for me, they enable you to push yourself! I feel stronger. The coaches are super friendly and you become part of a community when you join the gym. Most of my classes have been taught by PT Katie who is an unreal coach! She has a young family so understands the postpartum journey. She also offers good nutritional advice! I would recommend this gym to friends and family!

Fantastic experience: I signed up to a 6 week program with the intention to only do just that but very quickly became hooked to EmpowerHER & have continued, becoming a full member..The small group PT sessions are absolutely brilliant. All staff are so encouraging & help you push yourself to new limits, one’s I never thought was possible for me. It’s not just a gym it’s a safe environment for ladies only. I absolutely love it.

Fantastic experience: Been going for about 9 months now and honestly feel that all women should do this! I wish GPs could prescribe it to patients for free. Would 11/10 recommend:) Thank you to all who make it such a great family to be part of.

Fantastic experience: Dress code-NEVER Pressured to conform- NEVER Singled out-NEVER Told what to do- NEVER Expected to be a ‘type’ NEVER Judged- NEVER Weighed & measured- NEVER Made to feel inadequate-NEVER Age & fitness highlighted-NEVER Compared with others- NEVER I can ALWAYS ‘just’ do my best, with support from skilled and compassionate instructors! An environment that is really challenging & carefully designed for physical success & positive well-being.

Fantastic experience: I remember going to meet Victoria for the first time, I was absolutely terrified, I hardly said anything to her & was shaking. My first class I was like what have I done. I could barley lift a dumbbell never mind a bar! Now..my mental wellbeing has drastically improved ( It was really bad & low) I can lift that bar - with extra weight and I absolutely love going to the gym. It has changed my life, mindset & confidence You won’t be disappointed if you join. EmpowerHer is definitely a safe place where ‘You do you’ is ok! Safe, no judgement just full of encouragement, help & support!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, amazing trainers and lovely supportive women.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym following lots of research and reading reviews . Best decision I made . I’m 52 , menopausal with a knee replacement and severe arthritis in the other knee . I was so worried I would not be able to do anything . How wrong I was ! The coaches and ladies who attend are the best . Your individual needs are met and exercises adapted . You get so much encouragement and 1-1 PT sessions are just incredible ! Thank goodness I found you xxx

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Vic for a few years now and absolutely can’t put a price on the difference it makes to my physical and mental health. Would 100% recommend xx

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing gym for women. The team there is so supportive and positive that you just want to go back again and again and again. I have never felt so confident like I do now and its all thanks to team and other women there.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with great coaches. Everyone makes you feel welcome and encourages you to do the best you can.

Fantastic experience: Absolute amazing place. Everyone makes you feel so welcome. Nothings too much trouble for the trainers, they will adjust classes to your needs. Everyone encourages each other to keep pushing and not give up when you’re having a rubbish day. We’re like a little family If you’re worried about joining a gym, this is the place to be !!!!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym and community to be part of. The coaches work so hard to make sure everyone is looked after and the members are super supportive. Everyone has had a day one so don’t be nervous. The workouts will be tailored to your ability and needs. If you’ve been thinking about joining do it. It will change your life.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous gym! Everyone is so supportive and a great bunch of ladies, that have fun whilst getting fit. I haven’t done anything for so long and kept thinking about it all the time, so glad I joined as I can’t get enough now xxxx

Fantastic experience: Best gym I have joined, and over many years I've been to quite a few, very friendly, no matter what age or fitness level, I started improving within a few weeks......so happy with the results......

Fantastic experience: Love love love S75, and working out now. So much fun, challenging and motivating. Everyone is so friendly and supportive

Fantastic experience: After recently moving to the area, S75 Fitness was recommended to me. I've dipped in and out of gyms over the years but haven't found the right thing for me...until now! Vic, the trainers and all the members are the nicest, strongest, empowering group of women I've met. I highly recommend S75

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed coming to S75 to start my fitness journey and learn all about getting strong! Great group of women who are all encouraging and just want the best for each other.

Fantastic experience: I joined S75 fitness at the beginning of January 2023 as part of the 8 week flash challenge. I’ve joined multiple gyms in the past and only ever stuck at it for no more than 2 weeks. I was super nervous and had very very little confidence. Victoria and all the other coaches completely put me at ease, and have been so supportive. It’s not just a gym. All the ladies empower each other so much. The advice, knowledge and support I’ve received over the last 8 weeks has been beyond anything I could have envisaged. At the beginning of my journey I gave myself 2 weeks before I packed it in and did my usual, try something different. Couldn’t have been more wrong, it’s one I want to continue for the long run. I’d recommend S75 to anyone. Xx

Fantastic experience: S75 fitness is the best gym on the planet! It’s not just a gym, it’s a community full of amazing, strong, powerful and empowering women. I’ve gone from being a gym hater to finding a happy place in S75. Vic and the team have helped me to set and achieve many fitness goals and improve my mental health all whilst keeping me safe and supporting me through the ivf process, pregnancy and now new mum life! I’ll always be grateful for s75 fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to S75 for over a year and a half and and i can't sing its praises enough. Fantastic supportive coaches, a brilliant bunch of ladies of all ages and capabilities who always make you feel welcome and unjudged. My fitness levels have improved and I am also getting much stronger. Every day is different and it truly is an empowering gym x

Fantastic experience: There has been so much support right from the start when I initially reached out when I was considering joining. Its only been a month, but I love seeing and surprising myself at each PT session (group and 1:1) with what I can achieve. S75 is not just about fitness, it’s about empowering and building confidence in all clients ❤️

Fantastic experience: Absolutely lovely bunch of women who honestly make you feel extremely welcome. Oh and the sessions are tough but really good too!

Fantastic experience: Great place, really friendly people. Feel stronger and healthier than I've ever felt

Fantastic experience: I feel so lucky to be part of S75 Fitness! It is the best decision I have ever made. Initially my goals were to improve my fitness and to be healthier. I have smashed these goals and so much more. I am more confident and happier than ever. I have smashed so many fitness goals e.g squatting 95KG and being able to do pull ups! All because of the support I have received from Vick and all the amazing girls I have met! I am so grateful and look forward to making more memories with amazing friends whilst smashing our fitness goals together! Thankyou!

Fantastic experience: This place is the best. I've been coming since Sept 2017 and have never looked back. Previously I've never stuck to any kind of exercise, but I can't imagine life without S75 now. Victoria has managed to create a safe and friendly space where people can come and exercise without judgement. Everyone is so friendly and supportive, no one compares or competes with you. It's OK if you're not the fastest or the strongest, you're just encouraged to do your best and push yourself. I'm the fittest I've ever been and I've learnt new skills and become more confident in myself at the same time. Give S75 a try, I promise you won't regret it

Fantastic experience: I've just joined S75 Fitness. I've been made to feel so welcome. The classes are brilliant. The atmosphere is great and I've felt so supported after feeling nerves about rejoining a gym. I would highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: I joined S75 Fitness in May 2021 and as soon as I walked through the door I was made to feel comfortable and at ease by Victoria and the other members. I’ve always struggled at mainstream gyms, often feeling anxious and not lasting but S75 Fitness is a completely different environment. My fitness has increased dramatically, I’m achieving goals I never imagined I’d be able to, made friends for life and have found a love for training!

Fantastic experience: Spending time with a fun group of people, the exercise is just an added bonus. A complete no judgement zone, it isn't about being the best or lifting the heaviest. Everyone has different goals, but it is a team atmosphere. I would definitely recommend to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Such a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere - Vicky and everyone make you feel like an old friend from the start and my individual needs and well-being have always been at the core of what matters to Vicky. It’s more like being part of a mad family than anything - you just feel appreciated.

Fantastic experience: I started training with Vic in January 2018, after following her social media for months. My motivation in mainstream gyms had always been lacking, often ending with me stopping going 2 months in to a 12 month membership. So, its safe to say I was looking for something different. From my first session I was made to feel so welcome, not only by Vic, but the whole group. This has (of course) continued over the past 3 years, and I now see these ladies as my friends. I have not only seen an increase in my fitness levels, but also my confidence and that's all thanks to Vic (and the girls). I now enjoy training!!

Fantastic experience: I first started training with Vicki in 2015, I wasn't over weight but I wasn't happy with how I looked and felt and I wanted to build my strength and 'tone up'. Within the first 4 weeks I saw a massive change in myself, I was enjoying training and eating alot more than I did before! In that period I started to see physical changes which just made me want to do more. I stayed with Vicki for 3 years and I was even inspired to complete a personal training diploma myself. I have learnt so much from her, and I have continued with my fitness journey since I started with her. She's very knowledgeable and is able to adjust sessions and nutrition tips for you based on your goals and the group of ladies she trains are so supportive its like a family. I have recently started back with S75 Fitness as I was in need of motivation. I am currently 23 weeks pregnant and she adjusts the sessions for me so I can join in whilst still getting a fabulous work out in. Vicki is a huge support and training with other likeminded women makes it so easy to enjoy working out! Every session is fun, we all have a laugh whilst putting the work in. She gets the results you want if you are willing to put the work in!

Fantastic experience: I joined in July 2019 after really never sticking to any kind of gym/exercise routine in the past and I'm so glad I did. From the first session there was no judgement and I was made to feel welcome straight away by Vic and everyone who trains here. I can honestly say I never thought I would find myself exercising all the way through my recent pregnancy (most of which during lockdown at home with a toddler) but I did and felt the benefits during and after pregnancy. Victoria provided advice and appropriate adaptations for exercises at every stage and gave me that nudge when I wasn't feeling like exercising and I'm glad she did as every session boosted my mood. I can't wait to get back to S75 fitness soon!

Fantastic experience: What a great gym, I've been training here for 4 years. I started with low confidence & self esteem and what a transformation I made with the help of Vicky and everyone! Its a fun and supportive gym, no judgements and its about being the best version of YOU. I would highly recommend to everyone!

Fantastic experience: I used to absolutely hate any sort of exercise, I would start up memberships and never go! Then I stumbled across Victoria Hudson! I have been training with her for 3 1/2 years now and it’s not just a place to exercise and get fit, it’s also a social life! I call all the members my friend, we have such fun ( even whilst doing burpees) S75 fitness is worth every penny! You get so much more than any gym! AAMAZING!!!

Fantastic experience: I joined Barbelles and Ponytails in 2017 with the intention of losing weight, I managed to lose just under 3 stone but more importantly I learned how to sustain a healthy lifestyle and keep the weight off! Training with Victoria is such a positive experience, she is super friendly and knowledgeable whilst also knowing how far to push you so that you get the most out of each session and achieve your goals. I can honestly say I look forward to every session and I always come away buzzing. Thankyou Vic!

Fantastic experience: I signed up for barbelles and ponytails in September 2018 and since joining I have become so much stronger both physically and in myself. The environment Vic creates is absolutely fantastic and means that the people there become like a little family. I would more than recommend barbelles and ponytails to anyone as it has really been a life changer for me

Fantastic experience: Victoria is an awesome coach. She made me feel welcome right from the beginning. I'm so glad I was recommended to her and her bootcamps. Would highly recommend ❤
