Is this right for you?
Honestly? Probably.

- You'd like to meet other mums going through the same thing
- You need to bring your baby with you, no childcare required
What to expect
- Small classes, up to seven mums
- A gentle, progressive approach, nothing rushed
- Exercises adapted to your individual recovery
- A safe space to talk, move and feel like yourself again
- Join on Zoom, or catch the recording
- A fully qualified postnatal specialist instructor
When to start
There's no prize for rushing back.
C-section
Wait 12 weeks
Twelve weeks gives your scar and abdominal wall the healing time they genuinely need.
If there were any complications with your birth, please get clearance from your GP or midwife before you start.
What we work on
Four things, done properly.
Pelvic floor restoration
Proper, well-cued pelvic floor work, the foundation everything else is built on. No guessing whether you're doing it right.
Core rehabilitation
Safe reconnection of your deep abdominals, with Diastasis Recti in mind. Absolutely no crunches or sit-ups.
Posture & upper body
Undoing the rounded shoulders and stiff neck that come with feeding, carrying and the endless car seat.
Energy & stamina
Gentle conditioning that gives you back a bit of the stamina those broken nights have taken.

From our members
What people at the studio say.
"Perfect way to start exercise after giving birth, especially to help being aware of what has happened to my stomach muscles and how to regain strength and balance. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who has given birth!"
"I felt so welcomed from the very first session. Emma made sure every exercise was right for where I was in my recovery. By week four I was sleeping better and felt so much stronger."
"Having my baby with me made all the difference. No stressing about childcare - I could just focus on looking after myself for an hour. It was exactly what I needed."
Postnatal questions, answered gently.
No. Most mums on the course have never done Pilates before. Everything is taught from scratch, slowly, with plenty of explanation.
