About us

A free online community for women over 40 who want to get stronger, move better and age well, whether you’ve never exercised a day in your life or you’re coming back after years away. All events are online, so join from anywhere in Canada or the US.

What happens here?
🏋️ A free live 30-minute strength workout every month. Resistance bands and bodyweight only. No gym, no experience, no equipment needed to start.

🎙️ A monthly live webinar on the things nobody explains properly: strength after menopause, bone density, balance, joint pain, and how to start when you’ve never liked exercise.

🎧 New episodes of The Aging Grace podcast, with practical answers for women 40+.

Who is this for?
You’re over 40 most of you are 50 to 75. You’ve been told to “do strength training” and nobody showed you how. You might be walking, swimming or doing yoga already and feel like something’s missing. You’re nervous about being the least fit person in the room. That’s fine. Nobody here will treat you like you’re fragile, and nobody will yell at you through a headset.

Who's Running It?
Andrew Blakey is a Toronto strength coach with a degree in Kinesiology and close to 10,000 hours of one-on-one coaching over the past decade. He’s led hundreds of women through the start of their fitness journey, with over 1,000 sign-ups to his online strength program, and hosts The Aging Grace podcast (a podcast built for women over 40 where he brings on some of the nations most credible experts). In his members’ words: “He doesn’t talk to us like we’re old ladies.”
