The Postnatal Recovery Membership curriculum is
broken down in 8 steps to guide your recovery.

Here's what they look like:

Step 1

Pelvic Floor Connection.

This is more than just squeezing and hoping for the best.

Has anyone actually shown you how to do a pelvic floor squeeze properly?

I’ll teach you exactly how to activate your pelvic floor muscles step by step through clear video guidance—so you actually switch all of your pelvic floor muscles on.

Step 2

Activate Your Deep Abdominal Muscles

Everyone’s abdominal muscles separate during pregnancy—it’s completely normal. But reconnecting and reactivating your deep abdominal muscles is a key step in postnatal recovery.

This stage helps you gently switch those muscles back on so they can support your pelvic floor and start healing your Diastasis Recti. You’ll be guided through short, clear videos to help you build a strong, safe foundation before moving into exercise.

Step 3

Confident Core Connection

Use videos and audio guides to practise activating your core and pelvic floor together—so your body knows how to switch on when you need it. This helps support your pelvic health, protect your back, and carry you through day-to-day movements safely after birth.

Step 4

Adding small movement

Try short 15-minute workouts that introduce small, intentional movements while keeping your core connection switched on. These videos help you progress your postnatal fitness in a way that’s safe and sustainable—even if you’re just starting with five minutes a day.

Step 5

Safe Exercise After Having a Baby

Learn how to keep exercise safe for your postnatal body. This step gives you the tools to walk into any fitness class or follow any workout video with confidence, knowing how to protect your pelvic floor, stomach muscles and body after birth.

Step 6

Progress to Full-Body Movement

When you’re ready, start using your core in bigger movements with live and on-demand postnatal exercise classes.

These are safe from six weeks after a vaginal birth or ten weeks after a caesarean. Babywearing is optional in all sessions.

Step 7

Turn Daily Life into Strength Training

You’ll learn movement patterns that support your body while lifting, bending, and chasing toddlers.

Everything from pushing the pram to hanging the washing becomes a chance to build strength safely.

Step 8

Feel Strong, Confident, and Free in Your Body

You’ll also find body positive notes and a bonus Body Confidence After Baby course.

Learn how to let go of unrealistic expectations, feel good in your clothes, and move through life with confidence—whether you’re at soft play, the pool, or the park.

Join me live every Monday at 10am for an online postnatal workout you can do from home - with or without your baby in a sling.

Take a look at an example class here

You can baby wear - but this is optional!

Can’t make it live? No problem.
You’ll get unlimited access to on-demand
postnatal exercise classes, available any time,
so you can move when it suits you best.

Each class is around 35 minutes long - the perfect length for a full-body workout without interrupting your day. You can also break it up into smaller chunks (10 minutes here, 5 minutes there), and come back to it when life allows.

Because it’s all online, you can do it in your own space - no packing bags, no rushing out the door, and no worries if a poonami hits mid-squat.

During every class, I’ll guide you through core connection and pelvic floor activation. You’ll practise switching on the muscles that support your recovery, helping you feel stronger and safer - not just now, but in any future class you take.

Every class is choreographed to feel-good music, and I always give different levels so you can go at your own pace.

Whether you’ve never exercised before or you’re ready for a more hardcore workout, you’ll be supported every step of the way.

After your time with me in the membership...

When your toddler complains of tired legs, you’ll scoop them up with ease - baby on your chest, shopping in one hand, body strong enough to handle it all.

You’ll walk into any fitness class knowing exactly how to adapt exercises for your pelvic floor, Diastasis Recti or prolapse - so you can move with confidence, not worry.

You’ll stop second-guessing your body. Because you’ll trust it again - to support you when you laugh, cough, sneeze, or bounce on a trampoline.

When the sun appears on an unexpected spring day, you’ll strip to your pants and run into the sea with your kids- soaking up the joy, not worrying about how your body looks.

You’ll feel strong, free, and proud. And most of all, you’ll be living a fuller, more active life with your children in a body that can keep up.

Melissa and Bee

It has been amazing and a pleasure to be part of your group. You have helped me greatly with my self confidence and love for myself 🥰. Your workouts are fun and effective. I have corrected my Diastasis Recti, amazing as suffered with it since my first over 10 years ago, going from a 6cm plus gap after my last baby to almost nothing now . My core is strong, I'm energised and happy, and that's what you have given me. Thank you so much for all your time and hard work. You offer far more than just a workout. You have the biggest heart, you are amazing!!!

Claire and Zane

I love these sessions, they are so fun and much more than the sling/exercise class I thought I was signing us up for! Karen is incredibly supportive, explaining how to engage, love and look after your pp body. Baby Zane is a big fan too and always falls asleep towards the end - perfect as I have some time to collapse and recover in a sweaty mess.

Victoria

I love the ethos of the group - very supportive and all about appreciating what our bodies have been through and building it back strongly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Zoom is super easy to use on any device that can access the internet. You will have a link that you can use that will take you to the first class. You will be asked to download Zoom the first time you attend a live class, but don't worry it's a click of a button and the rest sorts itself out. It is super easy! However, If this is something that worries you, I am more than happy to walk you through the process. Just drop me a message so I can help you out.

I understand that joining in classes with a weight on you is a concern. Especially as you introduce exercise to your postnatal body.

The short answer is 'Yes!', there are many women that do the classes with their large toddler so it is totally doable. The longer answer is...

Your body, nurtured correctly, can become super strong and reliable and can manage to carry your baby whilst working out. But it does need to be nurtured.

If you joined the membership, I would suggest you go straight into the Postnatal Rehabilitation Course first so that you learn to connect with your core and you recognise when exercise is safe and isn’t safe for you. Then you would start classes from a low level. You might need to do just part of the class with your baby in a carrier to begin with and then build upon that. But once you have been doing classes for a while you will definitely be strong enough to do full classes carrying your little, or not so little.

We carry our babies a lot anyway right? They are only going to get bigger and heavier and we are still going to expect our bodies to carry our babies. So let's make them strong enough to manage it and practice that carrying in a safe controlled environment (my classes) so when you move about carrying your baby in day to day life you feel strong and capable to do so.

Just like walking into a class for the first time, it can seem a little scary to enter an online class too. That's OK, I feel it too when I attend somewhere new. I want to reassure you that we are all super kind and we are on your side. No judgement!

Also, if you would prefer not to be seen on a Zoom class you can opt to have your video turned off once the class gets started. I can help you do this if you need help.

The short answer to this is when your baby is 6 weeks old post vaginal birth and 12 weeks post C section and you have had the OK from a health care professional.

However, for optimum safety it is a good idea to ensure you can connect with your pelvic floor and abdominal muscles effectively before you start any intense exercise. You can join in with the classes at a lower level whilst you get the hang of how to use your breathe, pelvic floor and abdominal muscles throughout the class. Once you have joined the membership you get access to a step by step online course that talks you through how to do this safely and effectively.

There isn't a simple answer to this question, it depends on a few things. Firstly, there is no 'rule' as to what weight your baby should be when you need to stop carrying them in a sling in a class. It is all dependant on how you feel and what you can manage.

If you sling your baby regularly from birth then your body will be used to it and your muscles will strengthen to accommodate the increase in weight. There is no reason why you couldn't be slinging a baby up to 2 years old or even beyond if you are used to it and dependant on the weight of your baby. When your baby starts to feel heavy or restricts your view it's helpful to start slinging them on your back.

If, however, you are not used to slinging you may need to ease yourself into it. You can do this by slinging your baby for short walks and building the distance of your walks. Make sure you take correct posture into consideration. You could also join in part of a class, taking regular breaks and/or staying at the lower levels of the exercises. Perhaps the only way of finding out if it is going to work for you is to give it a try. I am more than happy to discuss this with you if you are unsure whether it would be suitable for you.

I have included a section that has abdominal workouts that you can do without your baby in a sling so you can really concentrate on all the super important abdominal muscles that you need to learn to connect with and strengthen.

However, it is really important to consider that the muscles in your butt, legs and even your arms are all connected and support each other. So you really should be strengthening your whole body alongside your abdominal muscles.
