Hey, I'm Gemma - a running, yoga and Pilates, movement loving, chick pea obsessed Mum - and founder of She Moves Club. You'll often find me adventuring (and running) in nature with my miniature dachshund Frank - who my friends have described as "the quickest thing on 3-inch legs!"

​

She Moves Club began with a simple belief: that movement can change how we feel - in our bodies, our minds and our lives. I'm passionate about growing a community of women supporting each other to move more and feel good together.

​

Movement has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Darwen, Lancashire - a place full of hills, long paths and big skies. My parents never learnt to drive, so we walked everywhere - to school, to the shops, across the fields,,,walking wasn't a hobby, it was just something we did. Walking was our way of exploring, We found new routes, noticed the seasons changing, and stumbled across places you only ever stumble across when you're not in a car.

​

Those early years gave me freedom, curiosity, and a deep connection to being outdoors - long before I ever called it "exercise",

​

As an adult, movement has continued to be my grounding force. From running with my local club and exploring new places on foot, to learning how much better I feel when I prioritise my physical and mental wellbeing - movement has stayed with me. Through periods of stress, exhaustion, self-doubt, pregnancy and health challenges. What keeps me going isn't perfection, it's small steps, consistency, and choosing movement that feels good.

​

It's also about belonging, feeling safe and feeling seen. It's about connecting with other women who just get it. I wanted to create a space where more women could feel that too.​
