About Post Natal Pilates
Following pregnancy and child birth a great number of changes happen to the body and mind. The new mother can often feel like her body is no longer something she is familiar with and the way it moves is different too. The baby is always the focus and care for the mother can be neglected. To meet this need a specific class is being offered to new mothers at Body of Work. Tanya Houpt of Insite will begin a series of classes specifically tailored to mums from 6 weeks post delivery.
To begin you will have an individual session with Tanya. This session will be to discuss your goals and cover Core education; the fundamentals of Pilates and adapting exercises if necessary.
You can then access your personalised exercises online and attend a weekly small group session that is specific to post-natal needs, has a rehabilitative focus and uses evidenced based research.
The weekly group class will be on Tuesday mornings at 9:30am and baby is welcome also (up to 6 months of age)
Mats will be provided
