Prenatal Pilates
Due to the physical and hormonal changes which occur in a woman’s body when pregnant, the body’s balance and alignment are often weakened. Pilates helps to strengthen the core, particularly the muscles needed for a healthy pregnancy such as the back, abdominal and pelvic floor muscles.
Pilates is a targeted exercise method, meaning each exercise is modified to benefit your body’s current state. Pilates is a low-impact method of exercise, making it very safe for pregnant women.
Prenatal Pilates are private, one-on-one sessions to ensure safe, effective workouts.
Postnatal Pilates
One of a pregnant woman’s main concerns is, “Can I get back the body I had before?” The answer is yes. Not only you can get back the body you had before, but you can improve it!
After pregnancy Pilates workout can get you back into shape, tighten your abdominals and help with any back problems.
After giving birth, the abdominal muscles are stretched and have often lost much of their tone. This lack of muscle tone can make women susceptible to back injuries, mainly because of the new physical demands on the mother. If you have been practicing Pilates during pregnancy your abdominal muscles will bounce back at a much quicker rate than would normally happen. If you have not done Pilates, now is the right time to start!
