Brooklyn · Women 40+
Strength training for women 40+ in Brooklyn.
For women 40+ navigating perimenopause, menopause, pain, injury, or a body that no longer responds the way it used to.
I am Alejandra Belmar — Chilean-born, Brooklyn-based, a Functional Medicine Health Coach and strength trainer with more than twenty years of experience working with women. My studio is in Brooklyn. Private sessions are available here, in Manhattan, and virtually.
Ways to work with me
What is available for women in Brooklyn.
You do not need to know which option is right before contacting me. We can decide together based on what you want, what you need, your schedule, your location, and the resources you have available.
Workshops
In studio or online
Focused sessions that explore one useful topic — such as feet and balance, breath and recovery, strength after menopause, or pain and adaptation. Topics, duration, location, and price are listed with each workshop.

How private work begins
We start by understanding your body.
The assessment is approximately 90 minutes and includes questions completed in advance. We look at your history, goals, symptoms, movement, balance, strength, breathing, coordination, and the patterns relevant to what you are experiencing.
I take time to organize what I learned rather than forcing a recommendation before the session ends. Then I suggest the most useful way forward based on your goals, what the assessment suggests you need, your schedule and location, and your resources.
This is coaching, movement assessment, teaching, and progressive strength training. It is not medical diagnosis, physical therapy, or psychotherapy — and when care goes beyond my scope, I collaborate with licensed clinicians.

Navigating perimenopause or menopause? Strength through the transition, in Brooklyn.
Where do Brooklyn sessions take place?
Private sessions and studio workshops take place in my Brooklyn studio. Training for Longevity meets in person on Saturdays. The exact location is confirmed when we schedule.
What does private work in Brooklyn cost?
Rates vary by location and format. The initial assessment has one consistent fee; current rates and availability are confirmed before scheduling.
Can I combine in-person and online training?
Yes. Training for Longevity pairs in-person Saturdays with Reconnect to Strength classes online. After a private assessment, some women continue with a monthly private meeting and one Reconnect to Strength class each week.
Do I need strength-training experience?
No. Group training suits women who can participate safely with modifications. If you have never exercised, are returning after surgery, a significant injury, a fall, or a long period of inactivity, or have a complex medical history, I may recommend an assessment or private work first.
