Move & Connect is a monthly women’s community walk designed to bring us together through movement, fresh air and good company. It’s a chance to step away from the everyday, explore some lovely local routes and meet other women along the way.
There’s no pressure around pace or fitness level — just book, turn up, enjoy the walk, have a chat and spend some time outdoors with a friendly and supportive group. Come on your own, bring a friend (or your dog!) and let’s move and connect together.

Hola! I’m Jess — a Personal Trainer based in Kendal 👋🏼
I just thought I’d do a little introduction because… why not? This is me!
When I’m not in the gym, there’s a very good chance you’ll find me somewhere on the fells.
Over the last year and a half, hiking has become a huge part of my life. After completing the National Three Peaks Challenge, I decided my next challenge would be to complete all 214 Wainwrights — mostly getting to them by bus and train, which has turned the planning into just as much of an adventure as the walking!
Being on the fells has also changed the way I look at strength and fitness. My training in the gym has changed too. The goal now is to build the strength and endurance that allow me to go further into the fells, explore new places, take on long days out and keep doing what I enjoy the most.
And that’s a big part of what I want to help other people find too — their own reason to get stronger and a way of moving that adds something to their life.
So around here, expect plenty of strength training, walks, Wainwrights and probably quite a lot of coffee along the way ☕️⛰️
If you’re new here, say hi! And if you’re working your way through the Wainwrights too, tell me which one has been your favourite so far
