SOMA is a female-focused corrective exercise and movement coaching service, based in Berkhamsted, UK. We support women in addressing musculoskeletal pain, rebuilding strength, improving mobility, and reconnecting with their core and pelvic floor through thoughtful, progressive exercise.
Coaching is available both in-person and online, allowing women worldwide to access expert guidance and structured support.
SOMA is here for women at all stages of life who feel unsure how to move forward with their bodies — offering clarity, consistency, and coaching-led support to help you move with confidence again.

Hi, I’m Niamh — a corrective exercise and movement coach for women, with a foundation in biomechanics and functional movement training.
I discovered corrective exercise after struggling with persistent back pain in my early 30s, which later progressed to a prolapsed disc following the birth of my first son. I know firsthand how frustrating it is when your body doesn’t feel strong, stable, or trustworthy — and how confusing it can be to know where to turn next.
That experience shaped how I work today. I’m passionate about helping women invest in the long-term health and resilience of their bodies, so they can feel strong, mobile, functional, and confident at every stage of life.
SOMA supports women who are:
Navigating pain, stiffness, or recurring injuries
Rebuilding strength after pregnancy, injury, or time away from training
Experiencing pelvic floor concerns, such as prolapse or leaking
Feeling disconnected from their core, hips, or pelvis
Returning to activity, like running, after childbirth or a long break
Seeking to build strength, mobility, and stability
Wanting to move with more confidence, resilience, and trust in their body
SOMA's coaching options are designed to help women understand that their anatomy, life experiences (pregnancy, motherhood, menopause) or "getting older" —do not have to dictate pain, posture, or athletic performance.
SOMA combines:
Corrective exercise to address muscular imbalances and movement dysfunction
Functional movement training to improve strength, stability, and mobility
Pelvic floor and core rehabilitation for long-term health
Expert coaching that’s evidence-based, supportive, and tailored to women
We leave no stone unturned — SOMA supports women in understanding that pain, posture issues, and movement challenges are not inevitable outcomes of life stages, stress, or physical change.
Key Outcomes for Women Who Train with SOMA
Reduced pain and physical limitations
Improved coordination and strength through the core and pelvic floor
Greater mobility, stability, and confidence in movement
A supported return to athletic activity, including running
A long-term investment in physical resilience, capacity, and longevity
Women’s bodies change — movement support should adapt with them.
SOMA provides coaching-led support to help women build strength, confidence, and resilience at every stage of life.
What it’s like to work with SOMA
Niamh has really helped me with strengthening & pain relief. Following a programme on the Train Heroic app gives me the routine I need to make time for my training & the videos are really helpful. During 1-1 sessions, Niamh takes the time to figure out the root cause of areas of pain, tackling issues that have been ongoing for years. She is great to work with & always very encouraging, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
