​
What should I expect from a class?
Expect the class to be around 40 minutes long choreographed to upbeat feel good music. Laughter, smiles and singing along is encouraged in this class.
Classes will start with a track of music to initially warm up to with simple moves. We will then spend a track of music really connecting with our pelvic floor and lower abdominal muscles before we enter the main section of the class.
​
During the rest of the class you will be encouraged to listen to your body and join in as much or as little of the movement as you feel comfortable with. I will offer you different levels thought the workout that you can choose from.
So whether you feel up to some gentle movement post sleepless night or you are good for an advanced workout dependant this class will cater for you.
​
After class there is often the opportunity to stay and chat to other mums whilst I make you a cuppa. I am then on hand to offer baby wearing or Postnatal Rehabilitation support. There will be more info about these arrangements in the email I send you after you sign up to a class.
​
If you have any more questions, if you are unsure whether this is good for you or if you just feel worried and want a chat first, you can drop me a message on my socials or on watts app on 07769357334. I am honestly so happy to chat with you.
