Girls Get Strong – Women’s Strength Training Classes in Perth

A supportive, technique-focused strength training program designed to help women build confidence and lift safely.

How the Exercise Classes Run - Programs, Training and more

Girls Get Strong is a structured 6-week weight lifting program designed to teach and refine major conventional lifts while developing strength and confidence in training. The program follows a clear weekly rhythm, combining coached small-group training with independent strength work to ensure consistent progression across each training block.

The Saturday session is where participants train together, refine technique on key lifts, and work through the primary strength focus for the week in a supervised environment. Outside of this session, participants complete a second programmed workout independently during the week, reinforcing what was taught and allowing strength gains to build steadily over time. Each 6-week block includes two programmed training days, with workouts evolving across the block to support progression in strength, skill, and conditioning.

Classes are run by James, Tom, and Tracey, who guide participants through technique development, strength progression, and structured conditioning work in a supportive small-group setting.

A Supportive Strength Training Community for Women

Girls Get Strong is a local small-group women’s strength training program run by Accredited Exercise Physiologists at Revolv Health. The program is designed for women who want to learn how to lift weights properly, build strength safely, and train in an environment that feels supportive rather than intimidating. It focuses on real strength training rather than high-intensity circuit workouts, with coaching that prioritises technique, progression, and long-term physical benefits. This program was created in response to a growing demand from women who wanted to strength train but didn’t feel comfortable jumping straight into a gym environment or generic group fitness classes. Girls Get Strong provides a structured introduction to lifting, with clear coaching, shared learning, and an emphasis on building confidence through understanding what you’re doing and why.

What Girls Get Strong Is Designed For - Getting Stronger!

Girls Get Strong is built around strength training through weight-lifting as the primary focus. Unlike many group fitness classes that prioritise fast-paced cardio or metabolic conditioning, this program centres on learning and progressing key compound lifts such as squats, deadlifts, presses, and pulls. These movements form the foundation of strength training and are taught in a way that is accessible to beginners while still allowing room for progression over time. Training in a small group allows participants to learn alongside others at a similar stage, which often makes the experience feel less daunting. Everyone is coached through the same core lifts, progressions are explained clearly, and there is plenty of opportunity to ask questions, get feedback, and refine technique. The aim is to help participants feel capable and informed, rather than rushed or overwhelmed.

What You’ll Learn and Train

In the early weeks of the program, the focus is on learning the foundations of strength training. This includes understanding how to set up for lifts, how to move through each exercise safely, and how to apply appropriate loads. Most programs centre around approximately four major compound lifts, such as squats, deadlifts, presses, and pulling movements, with progressions introduced gradually. As the weeks go on, the program alternates its focus so that each of the primary weight-lifting exercises is revisited and progressed. This allows participants to build familiarity and confidence with each movement while steadily increasing strength. Sessions usually finish with a short group conditioning component, adding a social and energetic element without shifting the overall focus away from strength training.

Group Size and Coaching Environment

Girls Get Strong is intentionally run as a small-group fitness program to ensure quality coaching and a supportive atmosphere. Training in a group setting helps participants feel less self-conscious while still receiving meaningful guidance from qualified exercise professionals. The environment is practical, focused, and welcoming, without the pressure or intensity often associated with traditional gym classes. Because the program is delivered by Exercise Physiologists, our fitness classes have a strong emphasis on movement quality, safety, and appropriate progression through weight-lifting (not just cardio). Participants are encouraged to ask questions, take their time learning new skills, and build strength at a pace that suits their individual capacity.

Who Girls Get Strong Is Suited For

This program is suitable for women with a wide range of training backgrounds. Some participants are completely new to strength training, while others have some experience but want clearer guidance, better structure, or more confidence with heavier lifts. It is particularly well suited to those who want to move beyond cardio-based exercise classes and develop real strength in a controlled, coached setting. Because the program focuses on teaching rather than rushing, it works well for people who want to understand what they’re doing, not just follow instructions. It also suits those who value consistency, skill development, and training that carries over into everyday life and long-term health.
