During my 1st pregnancy, I quickly realized there was a lack of accessible information and education around how to train throughout pregnancy and into postpartum. Google leads you down a path of confusing and conflicting information with many of it incredibly outdated. The general guidelines & do's and don't of pregnancy do not factor the individual and training variables at hand and simply label movements as 'safe' or 'unsafe'. Or provide general advice like; ’just listen to your body’ and ‘you can return to whatever you were doing pre-pregnancy.’
Women deserve so much more than just bullet points and modifications. My effort is to provide ALL mamas with quality coaching during this chapter of their lives, so that it translates into life, fitness, and motherhood.
Learning to breathe correctly is the foundation of every program. It's a powerful tool to stabilize and support your body during movement, manage intra-abdominal pressure and keep your body strong.
My approach is so much more than just creating a fitness program for you. I also educate you on your changing bodies and how to preserve your core and pelvic health. Long term function is your goal. This season is only temporary.
We cannot control every variable associated with pregnancy but we do have control of what you are doing in the gym and your intention around exercise. Understand how to actually listen to what your body is telling you and when/how to make adjustments to your workouts. This can then set you up for a strong, safe and faster return to exercise postpartum.
Each program includes approaches to prevent and reduce common prenatal discomforts such as pelvic pain, SI Joint or low back pain! I focus on movements that build and maintain pelvic, core and hip stability.
From 35+ weeks, programs include birth prep exercises that relax and lengthen your pelvic floor, open your hips, get you familiar with common pushing positions and leave you going into labor/delivery with trust and confidence in your body.
Walk into the gym with the confidence that what you are doing is benefitting you long term. I'm there reviewing your form, giving you the steps to reduce or manage symptoms, answering any questions/concerns and providing you with the tools to bring awareness to your body.
Evidence based programming factoring in your core and pelvic health, long term function and performance, your specific goals and your unique body and pregnancy.
Each program has a resource e-book with more guidance on how to breath, how to adjust your workouts, how to correctly and safely set up for lifts, how to manage symptoms and so much more. Education is SO critical for this chapter of womanhood.

As long as you have clearance from your dr, then absolutely YES! You will need to adjust your breathing techniques, reduce intensity and make exercise modifications along the way, but a strong pregnancy is so beneficial for both mom and baby!
Any! The great news is it is totally safe to a start strength training program when pregnant. All workouts are customized to your body, and your pregnancy!
Your pre/post natal training goes far beyond modifications. The general guidelines & do's and don't of pregnancy do not factor the individual and training variables at hand and simply label movements as 'safe' or 'unsafe'. Personal training is tailored to the individual, why should pregnancy be any different? We work together to find what works for you.
YES! Breath work is so important in both pregnancy and postpartum. I provide a step by step video tutorial on how to breath correctly as well as how this applied to exercise.
