Welcome to Vicara Yoga & Personal Training
Midlife doesn’t mean slowing down, but it can feel like your body didn’t get the memo, and as a 53 year old woman, I can honestly say that I’ve been there.
Hot flushes, stubborn weight changes, low energy, achy joints, brain fog, restless nights… it’s a lot. Add the overwhelm of conflicting fitness advice, and it’s no wonder many women feel stuck, confused and give up before they’ve even started…
Menopause and perimenopause can feel like your body has changed the rules overnight. Early signs can begin in your late 30s or early 40s and can often include less familiar symptons like forgetfulness, mood swings, as well as changes in periods. While these shifts are a natural stage of life, they can feel unsettling and exhausting.
The good news? With the right combintation of movement, nutrition, and stress management, you can feel more in control of your body and mind again. And it doesn’t have to be complicated.
That’s where I come in…
I help hormonal women in their 40s, 50s and beyond rebuild strength, regain energy, and feel at home in their bodies again. My approach is different:
Strength training to support bone health, boost metabolism, and keep you strong for everyday life (and hey, no one ever complained about getting a bit leaner and more defined right?)
Yoga to calm a busy mind, ease stress, and keep your body flexible, feeling good, moving smoothly and injury free.
Nutrition support to cut through the noise and fuel you in a way that actually works at this stage of life.
It’s not about punishing workouts or restrictive diets, it’s about creating a genuine balance that feels good and fits your lifestyle. Something you can maintain and sustain long term for consistent results.
You don’t need to “get your old self back.” You deserve to step into your next self - stronger, more focused, and more confident than ever.
I will coach you privately in the comfort and convenience of your own home and bring everything we need for our sessions. Many clients love to combine weights sessions with yoga for incredible results that feel amazing.
Ready to feel stronger, calmer, and more confident in midlife? Let’s make it happen together. Drop me an email and let’s chat about how I can support you
The right support makes all the difference. Lets start today…
Yoga Classes
Yoga with me is about creating balance both in your body and mind. I offer weekly Yin Yoga (for calm, stillness and meditation) and Vinyasa Yoga for strength, flexibility and stamina).
Together or as stand alone classes, they help you find harmony: slowing down when life feels hectic, and building vitality when you need a lift.
Whether you’re brand new to yoga or have years of practice, my classes are designed to suit all abilities and give you the space to move, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.
I currently offer Tuesday and Thursday morning Yin and Vinyasa classes at Chatham Maritime Watersports Centre. See booking below for dates, courses and full details.
“I’ve been training with Vicky for over a year and she has revolutionised the way I work out and the way I view nutrition. Before I trained with Vicky I was in a bit of a training rut but thanks to her I feel healthier & stronger than I ever have. Sessions are fun, challenging, force me to push myself and keep me motivated. I cannot recommend Vicky highly enough.”
“Amazing PT, Vicky listens and adapts to suit your needs, she has rekindled my love for the gym. Recommended, even if it’s just to try something new, Vicky can help. I suffer arthritis and her help has been invaluable. Thank you Vicky.”
“Vicky has been working with me for just over two months. During that time I have lost weight, gained muscle and enjoyed getting back into healthy eating and fitness which took a back seat after having my son. She is very understanding, knowledgable in nutrition and training and also very encouraging and honest with it. There are no gimmicks, no empty promises just sound advice, brilliant classes and tough 1:1 PT sessions which will push you in all the right places. I can’t thank Vicky enough and highly recommend her.”
“Vicky has been amazing since I started PT with her. She’s always pushing me out of my comfort zone and my fitness has definitely increased since starting with her!”
“Vicky is a fantastic personal trainer - very encouraging and really pushes me which I need. I can feel myself getting stronger and feel so much better for it! For many years I have been too scared to go to a personal trainer but so glad I have! I would recommend Vicky to anyone looking to improve their fitness. Thank you so much!”
“Vicky trained me when I was preparing for my marathon. We worked hard and achieved great results. I would definitely recommend her to anyone preparing for a race whether its a 5k or 40k. Her strength training programmes help so much. Get in quick before she gets booked up as the Spring season is only round the corner...I have!”
