Belle Beginner Strength
You don't need to get fit before you start.
You just need somewhere to start.
6 coached weeks for complete beginners, in a small group of women learning right alongside you. You won't be THE new girl, you'll ALL be the new girls 😉
Saturdays 10:30am from 7 November · Places are first come, first served
What the first group said
“You will feel safe in every sense of the word.”
“Lifting safely, but also safe to learn and be yourself.” Carly
Save me a spotBefore you talk yourself out of it
You do not need…
- To get fit first
- To have ever lifted a weight
- To know your way around the equipment
- To keep up with anyone
- To feel confident yet
- To bring anything but yourself
Sound familiar?
You've been watching for a while.
Following our posts, seeing the women in our classes and thinking “I'd love to do that.” Maybe you've even nearly sent us a message, and then the doubts crept in. So you wait, and you tell yourself you'll start when you feel a bit fitter and a bit more ready.
You don't need to feel ready before you start.
That's exactly why we created Belle Beginner Strength, so you can start right at the beginning, learn properly and build your confidence alongside women at exactly the same stage.
So, what if I just started?The doubts that keep you waiting
- What if everyone else is fitter than me?
- What if I don't know what I'm doing?
- What if I can't keep up?
- What if I'm the only beginner?
Here's how it works
Your 6 weeks
One new move each week, always brought back to real life.
Foundations
Breathing, core and glutes, and handling weights safely.
Squat
Getting up off the sofa and the floor with ease.
Hinge
Picking things up without worrying about your back.
Push
Lifting your case into the overhead locker.
Pull
Every bag in from the car in one trip.
All together
Your first full strength training class.
No trying to keep up. No feeling silly for asking. You bring yourself, and we'll teach you the rest.
What you'll learn
So much more than how to lift a weight.
You'll learn how to walk into a gym and actually know what you're doing: how to choose the right weight for you, what sets and reps mean, when it's time to go heavier, and how to lift with good technique, shoulders back.
Real life

Hinge
Picking up the shopping, the washing basket or the grandchildren without worrying about your back.

Pull
Carrying every bag in from the car in one trip.
“I don't think I can do that” becomes “Actually… let me try.”
It's never too late to get strong 💪🏻
Why Belle Vitale Wellness
Where you start matters
You can learn to lift weights in lots of places, but we believe how you feel while you're learning matters just as much. Belle Vitale Wellness is a women-only space where nobody expects you to arrive looking, moving or training a certain way.
You'll find small groups, coaches who know your name, women who want to see you do well and absolutely no judgement if you need to ask the same question twice 💛 You'll be encouraged to challenge yourself, but never made to feel like you're competing with the woman beside you.
Something rather lovely happens when women train together. We stop comparing and start cheering, and somewhere between learning to lift a weight and realising you're stronger than you thought, you might just find a community you didn't know you needed.
The next course
What's included?
- 6 coached 60-minute sessions, one a week, at Belle Vitale Wellness in Llanover.
- Your own bench and equipment every session, in a group of just 6 women.
- The knowledge, not just the moves. How to choose the right weight for you, what sets and reps mean and when to go heavier.
- Coaching on every lift, so you always know you're doing it right.
- The confidence to keep going. We don't just want to get you started, we want you to feel like you belong in the weights room.
What to bring: comfortable clothes you can move in, trainers and a water bottle. Everything else is here.
7 women. 6 weeks.
Here's what they told us on the last night
“Absolutely fantastic! I had no idea before, and I now have some idea of what muscles I'm working with different moves. Much more confident. Had no clue 6 weeks ago!”
Sarah“Come and have a go. Everyone is really friendly and you learn lots, as well as gaining so much confidence.”
Megan“Amazing introduction into strength training at a nice easy pace.”
TeresaAnd the bit we love most? Sarah now hinges when she empties the washing machine, Teresa gets up from her chair without using her hands and Helen is climbing the stairs without holding on. Not gym strong. Life strong 💪🏻
