About
Hi, I'm Rachel Pope
I help women feel great in themselves, improving their strength and body confidence through Pilates, Strength Training and Positive Nutrition Coaching.

As we enter the second half of life, particularly with the changes that come with it, it can sometimes feel like your body is working against you, leading you in a direction you never intended to go.
Many of us grew up in an era dominated by diets, calorie counting, and an obsession with being thinner. We became fixated on shedding pounds, exercising to lose weight, and doing cardio to shrink our bodies. In that toxic cycle, we lost sight of the incredible strength and potential our bodies possess.
I quit dieting over 10 years ago. At the time, I was working with a weight loss organization and had an epiphany when I saw, on a large scale, the damaging behaviors diets were fostering in us. The fixation on finding the "perfect" diet felt eerily similar to gambling—pursuing a win that was almost impossible to achieve.
Over the past decade, I’ve developed the approach that has become Rachel Pope Coaching. It’s about breaking free from the myths surrounding weight loss, cardio, and strength training and developing our own body confidence.
I believe there's a better, more enjoyable, and empowering way to live through finding joy in movement, working with your body to build strength, and fueling your life with nutritious foods that make you feel great.
The programmes I create for you take a preventative health approach—a blend of Pilates and strength training, with an emphasis on Positive Nutrition. It’s about reversing muscle decline, building strength, and reducing body fat, if that’s your goal.
High-level support is central to how we work together—taking things one step at a time, with one-on-one accountability.
I’m on WhatsApp and Instagram, and I'm always happy to have a chat and find out more about your and your goals and see if working together will realise them for you.
