Pregnancy

Pilates can have a significant effect on your pregnancy and birth. Private Sessions with our specially trained Pilates instructors provide you with the feedback and facilitiation you require for a safe, effective workout.

What to Expect

In your private Pilates sessions during your pregnancy, you can expect to learn how to activate your deep core and pelvic floor muscles within your first appointment. Your physiotherapist will also teach you ways of optimising your movement and posture during your pregnancy, as your baby grows and the stress on your spine and pelvis increases.

Deep core muscle strengthening combined with pelvic floor, gluteal and upper body strengthening helps to increase the support system to your joints and reduce the risk of experiencing pain.

Private Sessions can be booked on a 1:1 basis with your Pilates instructor or in small groups, such as 2:1, if you and a friend want to come together.
