Pilates is the most effective prenatal exercise regime as it prepares the body for the birthing process. Prenatal Pilates is adaptable and can be modified as your body changes, making it safe for all trimesters and fitness levels. Some of the benefits of Prenatal Pilates can include:

Prenatal Pilates
This mat-based class series is designed to prepare you for labor feeling fit and strong! Focus is on toned abs, back and pelvic floor muscles, resulting in a more comfortable pregnancy. During this class, you will strengthen your Transversus Abdominis, the main muscle that supports the back and abdominals. During pregnancy, this can relieve pressure on your back and thighs and can help support your growing uterus and the baby's weight. Class emphasis is also on breathing to improve oxygen supply to both mom and baby, decrease shortness of breath, and aid in breathing during labor. This class is safe for all trimesters and fitness levels with modifications to adapt to your changing body.

Postnatal Pilates
This postpartum class series is designed to help reverse the effects of pregnancy on your body. Pilates mat-based exercises work to strengthen and tighten your pelvic floor and core muscles. Through mindful movement, you will regain your strength, posture, and stamina while connecting with other moms. Modifications are provided especially for Diastasi Recti and Cesarean recovery. Babies are welcomed and incorporated into your workout!
