🥊THURSDAY EVENING BOXFIT IS COMING 🥊
I have managed to secure the hall for a 6-week term during the school holidays, which means we can now offer a Thursday 6pm BoxFit session.
Please note, this session will be different to the Friday BoxFit class, so if you attend Thursday’s pm sessions, Friday am sessions WILL be different.
The sessions are now live on the booking system and ready to book.
A quick but important note: these sessions will only go ahead if 6 or more ladies are booked on. Unfortunately, with room hire and running costs, it simply isn’t viable to run them with fewer numbers.
If you’ve been asking for an evening session, now is the perfect opportunity to support it. If attendance is good over the 6 weeks, it gives us a much stronger case for keeping evening BoxFit on the timetable in the future.
Who’s joining me on a Thursday night? 💙🥊

MONDAY IS CORE & BURN DAY
This week’s Core & Burn session is shaping up to be a proper little circuits workout. 🔥
Every station has been planned to challenge a different part of your body, so by the time you leave you’ll have worked hard, cleared your mind and be ready to take on whatever the week throws at you.
One thing I always want the ladies to know is that no Empowr class is ever thrown together. Every session is planned with thought, purpose and with each of you in mind. I know your abilities, I know when to encourage you to push a little harder and I know just how much you’re capable of, even when you don’t believe it yourself.
At Empowr, you’re never competing against anyone else. The battle is with yourself. For 50 minutes, the stresses of work, family and everyday life can wait. It’s your time to switch off, focus on you and walk out stronger than when you walked in.
No mirrors.
No judgement.
Just a room full of women backing each other every step of the way. 💙
Who’s ready to start the week the Empowr way? 💪

Sometimes the things we never planned turn out to be the biggest blessings. 💙
When it became clear Empowr needed to leave its previous home, I won’t pretend it wasn’t stressful.
There were moments when I felt overwhelmed, exhausted and uncertain about what the future looked like. After all, Empowr isn’t just somewhere I coach classes. It’s something I have poured my heart into for the last two years.
The move to Micklewell wasn’t planned.
It wasn’t expected.
But looking back now, I truly believe it happened for a reason.
We have a beautiful space to call our own.
More room.
Better facilities.
A fantastic community hub that genuinely wants us to succeed.
And a home where we can continue to grow.
But the biggest blessing wasn’t the building.
It was being reminded just how incredible the women of Empowr are.
Through every challenge, every hurdle and every stressful moment, you ladies stood beside me.
You supported me.
Encouraged me.
Checked in on me.
Helped me move equipment.
Offered your time.
Showed patience when things weren’t quite organised.
And most importantly, you believed in Empowr when I needed it most.
People often ask me what makes Empowr different.
It’s not the equipment.
It’s not the workouts.
It’s not the venue.
It’s the women.
The women who welcome complete strangers with a smile.
The women who celebrate each other’s successes as if they were their own.
The women who notice when someone is struggling and quietly lift them up.
The women who understand that we are stronger together than we will ever be apart.
Whatever gets thrown our way in the future, I know we’ll face it together.
Because Empowr has never been about one person.
It’s about a group of women who support, encourage and believe in one another.
And for that, I will be forever grateful.
You ladies all hold a very special little piece of my 4ft 11 heart. 💙

Today I felt like Dora the Explorer with my backpack on and no idea where I was heading.
Empowr Fitness stepped outside the gym, and what a fantastic day it was.
One of our lovely ladies, , is a keen hiker, so she led us on a beautiful 8-mile circular walk from Braunston.
Over 24,000 steps, we walked, chatted, laughed and got to know each other that little bit more. Ladies who had never met before were soon deep in conversation, friendships were formed, and as always at Empowr, nobody was left behind or left out.
The route took us through stunning countryside, along the canal and across open fields, with plenty of sunshine and smiles along the way.
To finish the day, we enjoyed a well-earned meal at The Admiral Nelson. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and it was the perfect way to round off a wonderful day.
Days like today remind me that Empowr is about so much more than fitness. It’s about friendship, support, confidence, laughter and creating memories together.
A huge thank you to Annette for organising such a lovely walk.
We can’t wait to do it all again in July.💙
Who fancies joining us on our next hike through our beautiful countryside?

Sunday July 12th myself and several of the Empowr Fitness ladies are taking part in the Northampton RACE FOR LIFE.
We are doing various distances, with myself, Heather Whalley, Anne and Alice doing both the 10 & 5k.
Our other team members are ladies who have never ran before, but are getting stuck in to our training and giving it everything they have to ensure they complete their chosen distance. Cancer has affected many of our ladies at Empowr Fitness and that is why this matters to us.
Cancer doesn't care about your age, gender, religion or bank account, It can happen to anyone of us at any time and that is why fundraising for vital research is so important.
If you can spare even a £ please feel free to donate using the link below.
We appreciate every penny.
Thank you from Empowr Fitness # # #

💙 WHAT A DAY 💙
Today was more than just an Open Day & 2nd Birthday celebration for Empowr Fitness…
It was a reminder of why I started this journey in the first place.
A huge thank you to all the ladies from Micklewell Park, Middlemore & Lang Farm who came along today. It was genuinely lovely to meet you all and we hope you enjoyed getting a small taste of what Empowr is all about.
The sessions may only have been short snippets, but hopefully you felt the energy, encouragement, laughter and support that fills every class we run.
I also want to say a massive thank you to the handful of Empowr ladies who gave up their precious time to be there today helping, chatting, supporting and making everyone feel welcome.
You ladies step up every single time and it NEVER goes unnoticed. Thank you all for all you do for me and
One comment that kept being said over and over again today was…
“Your ladies are lovely.”
And honestly… I couldn’t agree more.
I have been lucky enough to build a fab bunch of women around Empowr. Women who not only care about the sessions and each other, but genuinely want to see Empowr succeed and grow.
Massive thank you’s to Toni Louise Barlone for the beautiful balloon arch, our t-shirts, my water bottle and bag 💙 You really have gone above and beyond for me, thank you so, so much.
Gina Adamou, the hub manager. Gina you are a credit to Orbit and I can’t thank you enough for your help and support. Everyone should have a Gina.
Tina Carvell for our gorgeous cupcakes. I can confirm ALL 54 have been eaten, they were gorgeous and I think you may have more orders coming your way 😂
Annette Cunningham Liz Prickett Molly Jay Judith Edwards Emma Bown and Alice you ladies are the best, thank you all as always. 💙
That support means more than you probably realise.
And finally…
🎉 Congratulations to CARLY 🎉
Please get in touch so we can start you on your Empowr journey. Xx

💙 BANK HOLIDAY CORE & BURN 💙
All set for Monday’s session and ready to put the ladies through their paces
It’s going to be hot outside… and even hotter inside.
The best bit?
I genuinely can’t give anything away because even I don’t fully know what’s coming yet 🤣
One thing I do know…
Calories will be burnt, laughs will be had and nobody will leave without feeling like they’ve worked.
PLEASE bring extra water, wear minimal clothing and don’t forget to pack that enthusiasm.
See you Monday ladies.
