Find Your Starting Point
Home personal training for women across Altrincham, Hale, Bowdon, Hale Barns, Sale, Timperley, Dunham Massey, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Lymm, helping you feel stronger, healthier and more confident with a female personal trainer in your own home.
No gym. No judgement. No commitment beyond your first assessment.
Perhaps everyday tasks feel harder, your energy has dipped, or you've started exercising before but struggled to keep going. You don't need to have it all worked out.
Paula brings personal guidance, an agreed appointment and a manageable plan to your own home. Complete beginners are welcome: the starting point is you, not a gym programme you have to keep up with.
Discover How Personal Training Could Help
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.

Ask Paula a QuestionIt's not about doing more once. It's about showing up regularly.
Some movement is always better than none. A regular, appropriately structured routine gives you more opportunities to develop strength, fitness and confidence.
01
A Good Start
A welcoming introduction to movement. Build confidence, learn technique and make time for yourself.
02
Build Momentum
Paula's suggested starting point for many women: regular opportunities to practise, build strength and establish healthy habits.
03
Accelerate Your Progress
More opportunities to progress when your programme, recovery and circumstances make it a good fit.
The best programme isn't the hardest one. It's the one you can stick to.
Not every exercise session needs to be a paid appointment. Your routine may combine time with Paula, walking and independent exercise, with sensible recovery between sessions.
Begin with a £75 Fitness Assessment. Ongoing individual training is a separate service, available by the session or in a package.
Your first step, not an ongoing session
Paula gets to know your activity levels, goals, exercise experience and any concerns about starting. Together, you'll discuss how often you can realistically exercise and whether individual or two-person training might suit you.
Leave with a clear, personalised plan for what to do next, even if you decide not to continue training.
There is no obligation to purchase an ongoing personal training package afterwards.
