Postnatal Exercise Program (P.E.P)

Birthing your baby is a physically challenging and life-changing event. Whether vaginal or cesarean you can take awe at the resilience and capability of your body. Proper Post-Natal activity is highly beneficial for pelvic floor, core, posture, circulation, mood. sleep, strength and stamina.

We are now offering our program virtually for those who have been cleared for physical activity. Participants will be guided step by step from the initial consultation, obtaining the “exercise kit” as well as virtual classes 2x per week. This program can be utilized as a foundation for a safe return to exercise/sport or employment.
