Meet Your Personal Trainer
Personal Training Designed Around You
Hi, I'm Paula Heyes, founder of The Female Personal Trainer. Helping women across Altrincham, Hale and Cheshire become stronger, healthier and more confident through private home personal training.
I've been a qualified Personal Trainer since 2011, helping hundreds of women achieve their fitness goals through personalised, one-to-one coaching. I believe exercise should be enjoyable, supportive and designed around your lifestyle, not the other way around.
Every session takes place in the comfort of your own home and is tailored to your individual goals, whether that's building strength, losing weight, improving fitness, increasing confidence or simply feeling healthier.
I also specialise in supporting women through pregnancy, postnatal recovery and menopause, combining strength training, mobility and practical lifestyle coaching to help you feel your very best.
My goal is simple: to help you become stronger, healthier and more confident with expert coaching that fits around your life.

Featured reviews from clients across Altrincham, Hale and the surrounding villages.
"I'd avoided exercise for years because the gym felt overwhelming. Training privately at home has changed everything. I feel stronger, calmer and genuinely more confident in my body. It's the most personal experience I've ever had with a trainer."
Charlotte
Hale
"Through menopause my body felt unfamiliar. The programme was tailored, gentle and beautifully thought through. I've regained strength, my sleep has improved and I look forward to every session."
Elizabeth
Bowdon
"Postpartum, I needed someone who truly understood. The care, the expertise and the encouragement have been remarkable. I feel like myself again, only stronger."
Annabelle
Hale Barns
"As a busy mother and professional, I thought I'd never find time for myself. The sessions fit around my life perfectly. I've lost weight, gained energy and finally feel comfortable in my own skin again."
Sunita
Altrincham
"I was sceptical about home training, but the results speak for themselves. I've dropped two dress sizes and my posture has completely transformed. The convenience is unbeatable and the accountability keeps me on track."
Jenny
Timperley
"After years of yo-yo dieting, this is the first approach that has actually stuck. The focus on strength rather than scales has shifted my mindset entirely. I walk taller, sleep better and actually enjoy exercise now."
