Liverpool’s Only Women’s-Only Gym, Belly/37+ Expands with New Wavertree Site Opening This Month

Liverpool’s only women’s-only gym, Belly/37+, is expanding with a brand-new site opening in Wavertree this November, following huge demand for its empowering, community-led approach to women’s fitness.

The new location, based in Wavertree Technology Park, will open on Sunday 10 November, marking the next chapter for the fast-growing business that has transformed the city’s fitness landscape since launching its first site, Belly The Studio, in Garston in April 2024.

Founded on the belief that fitness should be inclusive, evidence-based, and supportive, Belly/37+ specialises in perinatal training and fitness for women aged 37 and over, offering expert coaching tailored to women’s hormonal and physical changes throughout life.

Co-owner Holly Geraghty said: “We’re proud to be the only gym in Liverpool dedicated exclusively to women’s changing needs – from perinatal fitness to hormonal health after 37. Our expansion means we can reach more women than ever before and continue building a truly empowering community. Belly/37+ continues to redefine what women’s fitness looks like in Liverpool — inclusive, informed, and rooted in connection.”

The Garston studio will continue to host mat-based classes including barre, pilates, yoga and step, while the new Wavertree site will focus on cardio, lifting skills, and weight-based training — broadening the timetable of small-group sessions designed to help women train with confidence.

In keeping with Belly/37+’s ethos — “It’s more than fitness, it’s community” — the Wavertree facility will also feature a dedicated play space for babies and young children, along with a welcoming coffee area where members can relax and connect after classes.

By combining expert-led training with a holistic, community-focused environment, Belly/37+ continues to set a new standard for women’s fitness in Liverpool — one that celebrates every woman’s journey, at every stage of life.
