Capabilities for Life

No, but we do touch on rolling and fall resilience.

You’ll have follow-along videos, clear written guidance, and ongoing support (weekly live Q&As and the online forum) so you always know what to do next.

Yes - as this is our first cohort we ask that you:

• Can confidently get up and down from the ground unaided.

• Have some recent exercise history 

• This first round is not suitable for anyone with osteoporosis or pre-existing conditions unless we’ve worked with you already or we’ve talked to your physio or GP.

For this first round, no — unless we’ve worked with you directly.

We’ll expand this in future versions.

We get it, it’s easy to start strong and then lose momentum. That’s why this course is built around connection and accountability.

You’ll join a live call every week (including guest sessions), get access to a private student forum, and have ongoing support between sessions.

This isn’t a “buy it and disappear” programme, we’ll be learning, training, and checking in together every week.

That’s not a problem.

All sessions will be recorded, so you can catch up in your own time.

The live calls are there if you want the interaction and support, but the course is designed so you can still get a lot from it even if you’re working through it more flexibly.

When we talk about capabilities, we’re not just talking about strength in isolation.

We’re talking about what you can actually do with your body - practical strength and skills.

Things like getting up and down from the floor, carrying something awkward, moving across uneven ground, balancing, reaching, twisting, or reacting when something doesn’t go to plan.

It’s the kind of movement that shows up in everyday life.

This course is about building more options. So instead of relying on one way of moving, you have a range of ways to solve whatever situation you find yourself in.

Strong for Life focuses on building strength and confidence through a structured, progressive programme. It's the most prescriptive course we offer and has a relatively narrow focus - to build bone density and confidence. 

Capabilities for Life builds on that.

It’s where we start to take that strength and use it in more varied, less predictable situations - the kind you find in everyday life.

There’s less focus on sets and reps, and more focus on movement, problem-solving, and adapting to different environments.

You don’t need to have done Strong for Life first, but if you have, this is the natural next step.

Yes - absolutely.

This course isn’t about being fit or strong before you start. It’s about building those things in a way that feels manageable and relevant to your life.

Everything we do can be adapted. You’ll be encouraged to work at a level that feels appropriate for you, and to build up gradually.

In many ways, this course works best for people who don’t feel like they fit into traditional fitness spaces. That said, we do have some prerequistes:

• Can confidently get up and down from the ground unaided.

• Have some recent exercise history 

• This first round is not suitable for anyone with osteoporosis or pre-existing conditions unless we’ve worked with you already or we’ve talked to your physio or GP.

Sometimes, but not always.

Some sessions will feel more like strength work, but others will feel slower, more exploratory and playful, and a bit different from what you might expect from a “workout.”

We aim to help you move better, feel more confident, and build skills that carry over into everyday life.
