What is Strong Her?

Strong Her is a guided group strength class that typically includes:

• lower body strengthening (glutes, quads, hamstrings, calves)

• upper body strengthening (shoulders, back, arms)

• core and stability work

• functional movement patterns (squats, hinges, step patterns, carries—modified as needed)

• mobility and flexibility components to support recovery and movement quality

Exercises can be scaled up or down based on your current capacity, confidence, symptoms, and goals.

Who Strong Her is for

Strong Her can be a great fit if you:

• want to build strength and feel more capable in everyday life

• are returning to strength training after injury, pregnancy, or a long break

• want a structured class without the pressure of a gym environment

• want to improve posture, stability, and movement confidence

• enjoy group accountability and a supportive atmosphere

If you have significant pain, a complex medical history, or recent surgery, contact us first so we can guide you to the safest starting option.

Why strength training matters (especially for women)

Strength training can support:

• improved bone health and long-term mobility

• better joint support and stability

• improved confidence with daily tasks (lifting, carrying, stairs, getting up/down)

• reduced falls risk through stronger legs and better balance

• improved energy and resilience over time

Our focus is functional strength—building capacity that translates into real life.

Mum’s & Bub’s friendly option (baby in pram welcome)

We don’t currently run a dedicated Mum’s & Bub’s reformer time slot, but you are welcome to bring your baby along in their pram to eligible classes as long as bub remains in the pram next to you throughout the session (space and safety permitting).

What to expect in a class

A typical Strong Her session includes:

• warm-up and movement prep

• strength blocks (lower body + upper body + core)

• options for different levels (progressions/regressions)

• technique coaching to support safe loading and good form

• short cool-down / mobility work

You’ll be supported to work within your own limits while still progressing over time.

Want more individual guidance?

Some people do best starting with an individual consult first (Physiotherapy or Exercise Physiology), then transitioning into group classes once they have the right baseline plan and modifications.

If you’re unsure, we can help you choose the best pathway.

Strong Her FAQ

Is Strong Her suitable for beginners?
Yes. We can modify exercises and help you build confidence with strength training step-by-step.

Is it high intensity?
It’s strength-focused, but it doesn’t need to be high intensity. You’ll work at a level that suits your body and goals.

What if I have back, hip, or knee pain?
Many exercises can be modified. If pain is significant or worsening, we recommend a physiotherapy assessment first so we can guide the safest approach.

Can I bring my baby?
Yes—babies are welcome in their pram next to you, provided safety and space allow and bub stays in the pram for class.

Do I need an assessment before joining?
Not always, but if you’re unsure what’s safe (especially postnatal or post-injury), an initial consult can be helpful.

Are rebates available?
Possibly. Private health rebates depend on your insurer and cover.

 Our Classes

At Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health, we offer a range of exercise classes and rehabilitation services in Perth designed to support movement, strength, mobility, function and confidence across a wide range of ages and abilities.

Our classes and rehabilitation services are designed for people who may want:

• guided exercise in a supportive environment

• rehabilitation after injury, illness or surgery

• support with strength, mobility and balance

• exercise that feels more appropriate for their body, health condition or functional goals

• a class environment with allied health input and clinical understanding

Depending on the class or program, support may be suitable for children, adults and older adults, including people living with disability, chronic conditions, pain-related movement limitations or reduced confidence with exercise.

A Supportive Allied Health Environment

One of the key differences at Palms is that our exercise classes sit within a broader allied health environment. That means clients may also have access to support across:

This can be particularly helpful for people whose exercise needs are connected to broader concerns around mobility, function, disability, rehabilitation or participation in everyday life.

Exercise Classes for Different Goals

Strength and Conditioning

Some classes may focus on improving strength, endurance and general physical capacity in a structured and supportive way.

Mobility and Balance

Some classes may be more appropriate for people wanting to improve movement confidence, walking, flexibility, balance and falls-related function.

Seniors Exercise

Older adults may benefit from classes focused on maintaining movement, strength, independence and confidence in everyday life.

Inclusive and Disability-Friendly Movement

Some classes may be suitable for people living with disability who would benefit from supported movement, rehabilitation or physical activity in a more inclusive setting.

Rehabilitation and Return to Function

For people recovering from illness, surgery, injury or physical deconditioning, exercise may form part of a broader rehabilitation pathway.
