Menopause is NOT taboo!

It doesn’t make any sense that the menopause and mid-life transition is taboo.

Women of all ages go through menopause, so we normalize and embrace ALL of it!

Menopause is a beautiful sign that you are transitioning into a different stage of your magnificent life and it’s also a time of vulnerability as you live through it.

It does make sense to gather and talk, learn, support and explore this transition together.

The Menopause Movement Mission (MMM) is a supportive CommUNITY of women who are living through perimenopause, menopause and post menopause and want to do it well.

  • We celebrate our changing bodies with joy, love, compassion and bad ass-ness!

  • We focus on safe and proper resistance training, at the correct intensity and time, so we see the benefits of our hard work.

  • We connect with each other for support, inspiration, education and love.

  • We explore how we can take action with daily habits to overcome and minimize things like, hot flashes, night sweats, belly fat, anxiety, depression, and mood swings. We even learn about how our hormones are shifting and how movement and lifestyle supports this shift.


Wow! This has made a real difference for me. My balance, endurance and all around mood have shown marked improvement.

I think I’ve stuck with it because Nicole has a ready smile, word of encouragement and maybe a giggle or two at herself to help you through.

Menopause Movement Mission is for You if:

  • You are a brilliant woman in peri-menopause, menopause, or post menopause

This program has helped me meet my health goals. With Nicole’s guidance, I am starting to get stronger- I never saw myself as someone who would lift weights, but it is helping me mentally and physically.
I appreciate all the adaptions to individual abilities. I love the flexibility of attending on live zoom link or watching on my own time.
I can’t say enough about this program and Nicole’s effort to make it safe and enjoyable. The gentle nudging to push ourselves is also useful!

What to Expect…

Each 60 minute class is virtually facilitated (on Zoom) by a Registered Nurse, who is also a Menopause Fitness Specialist, Functional Aging Specialist, certified Brain Health Trainer, yoga teacher, group fitness instructor and board certified Nurse Coach.

~ Learning and Connection Circle: We take time to check in with each other before we get moving.

You’ll explore lifestyle strategies. These may include: awareness/meditation practice, better sleep, eating for nourishment, reducing stress, environment impact on personal health, or building resiliency.

You’ll learn about your hormones and how they are affecting your health and wellbeing.

~ Movement Practice: All movement is adaptable to all bodies and experiences.

Learn the basics of resistance training, from body weight to dumbbells, and how movement affects your changing body and hormones. From feet and hand positions, to exercise names and how to safely do them.

We’ll tackle all the basic movement patterns you need to begin to feel stronger and more confident.

~ Closing Circle: Relish silence for a few moments, soaking up all your effort and learning.

This time is an invitation for respectful reflection of learning and goal setting for the next session, and returning our bodies to a state of peacefully energized equilibrium.
