FitForLife Pre/Post Natal Move, Groove Functional Training

After two pregnancies I’ve personally dealt with diastasis recti, lower crossed body syndrome, and bad posture, to name a few things. Helping expectant and new mothers to regain daily function & movement with confidence is a very fulfilling professional experience for me. It’s also one that requires specific knowledge & skills. As an American Council on Exercise (ACE) fitness specialist, we will also follow guidelines set forth by the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) to create a program for your unique needs.
Exercise for a pregnant woman can have profound effects on her health and her baby’s experience in utero. We will be using exercises that are appropiate for each trimester and how you are feeling that day, keeping in mind that intensive exercise is not the optimal goal during this stage of your life. Our primary goal will be getting you to a place where you feel more relaxed and less symptomatic so you can focus on enjoying this incredible experience in your life!
Exercise after pregnancy: The journey to motherhood starts with getting back on your feet! We will be reconnecting your feet with core exercises and variations, working gently on your postural deviations. It is essential to new moms to take care of ourselves so we can take care of our children. And chances are, children may be the best motivation we ever had.
