Pre Natal Pilates is suitable for all pregnant women who would like to improve their pre natal fitness, core & pelvic strength in preparation for birth and motherhood. These classes are mat based, with the use of props such as Pilates balls, weights and resistance bands. They are challenging, but also low impact and will incorporate lots of pelvic floor, abdominal and gluteal strengthening. There is also a focus on pelvic floor relaxation and flexibility throughout the body. Breath work is core to Pilates and will be practiced throughout to help you to connect with your movement patterns.
Expect a friendly, fun and nourishing environment to exercise in, whilst meeting like minded mamas to be. Stay behind afterwards for a herbal tea and chats.
Kate is also a Physiotherapist and can provide modifications during the class to suit any needs that you may have.
No prior experience of Pilates is required.
Class run at the Salt Cellar, Totterdown Baptist Church, Well road, Bristol, BS4 2AX
