Our Story
The Wellness Hub

We built
this for you

The Wellness Hub started with one question: why isn't there a place built specifically for women like us?

Founded by Kelley Connor in Donaghmede, Dublin, we’re a female‑only studio supporting women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond — with strength, Pilates, nutrition, and a calmer nervous system.

The beginning · 2018

A gap that
shouldn't exist

In 2018, Kelley Connor saw the same pattern everywhere: women doing their best, but being handed one-size-fits-all programmes that ignored menopause, sleep disruption, joint changes, and confidence. The training wasn't wrong — it just wasn't designed for this stage of life.
The problem wasn't the gym. It was that no one had thought about her.
Women in perimenopause and beyond have specific physiological needs. Bone density changes. Muscle responds differently to training. Hormonal shifts affect recovery, sleep, mood, and metabolism. A generic programme doesn't just underperform — it can actively set you back.
Kelley built The Wellness Hub in Donaghmede as a calm studio for women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond: small-group strength (including her signature LWL programme), Pilates with Sara Connor, and nutrition 1:1 consultations. The goal is simple: stronger body, steadier mind.

"This is a place to train your body and soothe your mind — both matter."

What drives us

Our commitments
to you

01

Evidence-based, always

Every class programme, nutrition plan, and recommendation is grounded in current research on women's health through menopause. We update our methods when the science updates. No trends, no guesswork.

02

Dignity and respect, non-negotiable

No before-and-after culture. No weight-loss obsession. No age-shaming dressed up as inspiration. You come here to feel well — not to be fixed. Our instructors are trained in trauma-informed and age-inclusive teaching.

03

The whole picture

Physical health doesn't exist in isolation. Sleep, stress, mood, and confidence matter — and we treat them as part of the programme. When you want deeper clinical support, we can point you toward trusted local practitioners.

04

Rooted in Dublin

We're a local centre with a local community. Free events for members, partnerships with local GPs, and a commitment to keeping fees accessible. Wellness shouldn't be a luxury.
