Pilates targets all the areas that become weak during pregnanacy, it focuses on core abdominal strength and on maintaining that all important pelvic floor connection.
The exercises are specifically designed to maintain a good posture and to ensure that your body stays fit and healthy during this changing time.
In each session we will also look at how breath control and relaxation techniques can help during birth.
I recently attended a course on Pilates during the ante/postnatal period, it was taught by Judy Difiore, one of the foremost experts on ante/postnatal exercise and has been accredited by The Royal College of Midwives.
Other benefits from pilates include:-
- Maintaining fitness
- Weight managment
- Improving fatigue levels
- Achieve a sense of wellbeing
