Liverpool has the most splendid setting of any English city.
Nikolaus Pevsner, Richard Pollard
Those authors toured the United Kingdom, writing books about their findings. Unfortunately, their work primarily describes various regions' architecture. Still, it escapes no one that a setting refers to landscapes and surroundings, not buildings. Which begs the question: with all that outdoor beauty to enjoy, why look for an all women's gym, to exercise indoors?
The women of Liverpool must have reasons to, as we found more than one all female gym there. In fact, we found more studios, classes, and facilities for women in Liverpool than we found in our search for ladies-only gyms in London. Here, we list the best of our collection, starting with this quick take:

Hearts Health Club
This ladies only gym in Liverpool is as advertised: it is a ladies' only enterprise. Women run the administrative side, as well as the classes and amenities. Speaking of which, this facility has amenities to put the poshest spas to shame. Hearts' spa area includes a steam room, jacuzzi and sauna, with a beauty and hair salon nearby.
As though all that weren't enough reason for a membership, Hearts' fitness programmes steal the show. You can sign up for a lively Zumba or Step class, or go for High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT).
The latter involves short bursts of moves with small breaks between reps. Hearts offers low-intensity sessions too, like yoga and Restore Pilates, among other classes:

- Body Pump™
- Bodycombat™
- Legs, Bums n Tums
- Stretch n Tone

Gymophobics Liverpool
This all women's gym brand has 15 outlets, hosting fitness classes for women across England. The franchise has been a staple of women's fitness since 2003. Brand owners Donna and Richard Hubbard insist their secret to success lies in their Resisted Tension (RT) programme. This patented system blends isometrics with resistance exercises.
At Gymophobics, you won't find any aerobic equipment like treadmills or rowers. Unlike other women's gym classes, you won't eye yourself critically, because these studio walls have no mirrors.

Strictly Boxing Fitness Studio
Disclaimer: as we investigate women's fitness facilities in Manchester and across the UK, we verify references to be sure all their information lines up. In this case, we got a little confused, as Yelp lists this ladies gym Liverpool as Liverpool Personal Trainer. It took a bit of digging to make sure we present the right facility - and its correct contact information.

Kerry's Fitness
Kerry Russell, the fitness professional driving this initiative, started her career in fitness at Liverpool's Lifestyle gyms. Now, with more than 30 years' experience, she has created a fitness plan women of all fitness levels can follow. Her women's only gym Liverpool tops the best Leeds women's fitness centres we toured.
Some fitness studios might make male and female fitness trainers available, but not Kerry's. Here, you'll find small groups (3-6 people) training under Level-3 certified coaches.

Powher
This is a relatively new women's only gym Liverpool. It opened its doors in 2022, dedicating itself to women's strength training. Of course, the initiative has grown, since then. Today, we find many fitness programmes and classes at Powher.
Powher organises its membership packages based on the class(es) you wish to attend. For instance, if you're only interested in spinning, your membership will cost less than if you aimed for a 6-week training programme.
Fortunately, Powher offers a generous class selection to choose from.

GymReb3l
As we discovered when reviewing women's gyms in Birmingham, ladies-only gyms are unique in their approach to fitness. In GymReb3l's case, their fitness philosophy is their special ingredient. For these fitness professionals, doing the same moves - only, with more reps, gets you nowhere. You need strength training to change your body shape.
Boxing is where it's at, at Reb3l, but each class breaks into three parts. First, comes the bag work, after which you'll work with weights, for conditioning.
The session ends with abs work. Thus, bags, weights and mats are the only equipment this gym has.
Personal training, home-based workouts, a progress-tracking app, nutritional guidance.
⏰Operating hours: revolve around personal trainer sessions
💰Price: discussed at intake.
📍Location: 49 Woolton Road, Liverpool L19 5ND

Unlike many of the all female gym brands we've described, Icon doesn't insist on hard work and dedication to fitness.
These fitness professionals would rather you dedicate yourself to wellness, of which fitness is a part. To that end, Icon hosts these classes:

Fitness With a Personal Trainer
Most of the facilities we reviewed in this article offer personal training as an extra service. For shy fitness enthusiasts, and those with special needs, a personal trainer delivers an extra motivational boost. It helps them achieve the results they want.
However, for gyms that don't offer personal fitness training, you can turn to Superprof. Across the UK, you'll find more than 6 000 Superprof private fitness coaches; 312 of them are in Liverpool.
On the Superprof platform, you can filter your results to suit your schedule and budget. You can also look for a fitness trainer who will come to your home, or coach you online. Or, as we saw when reviewing women's fitness centres in Glasgow, you and your Superprof trainer can meet at the gym of your choice. That's how you can enjoy personal fitness workouts at the Lifestyle Fitness Centre, mentioned above.
