What Students Say About It

I loved Michelle Wright's presenting and am going to seek out more of her courses now. I didn't know much about perimenopause and menopause before but feel so much more confident taking on this stage now. I run bootcamp style classes for pre and postnatal women so wanted to upskill on our next stage of life, but also open my market up to some older women.
Briana H. · Legacy Testimonials S117
It really helped close a very large gap in what I thought I knew. I found it both beneficial for my own personal journey and now feel a lot more confident in having conversations with clients around this topic. Lots of practical tips and tools to take away and use immediately. Recommend this to all fitness professionals.
Lindy K. · Legacy Testimonials S117
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, experience, and insight into so many important health factors we should consider when training women over 50. I got a lot of good reminders, some new information that I have already implemented into my pre-exercise questionnaire and lots of food for thought. Your holistic approach to the client is exactly what I loved.
