Postnatal Exercise & Lifestyle Class

This 6 week course is suitable for women from 6 weeks after a vaginal birth or 12 weeks after a C section delivery. There is no upper limit, so if you have had a baby even many years ago you are very welcome to join us.

Babies are very welcome too and a special area is set up for them to lay or play on, within easy reach of mums.

Our course runs for 6 weeks on Thursdays 10-11am at Little Therapy Space.

The Class is available to join through Zoom if you prefer to access it this way.

This course is for you if you want to get 100% clear on:

how to re engage your core and strengthen an abdominal separation (Diastasis Recti)
how to exercise safely and correctly with everyday mum movements
working with your pelvic floor to regain strength and mobility
effective nutrition which is healing, healthy, tasty and quick to make
how to work with your c section scar and what is normal
feel confident about when you are able to start running or retuning to heavier exercise
you want to bring your baby along

The hour session is made up of a HIIT circuit which starts at 10 minutes on week 1 and progresses each week by 5 minutes building up to 30 minutes. Specific work is then done with the pelvic floor and core to strengthen this area and work towards closing any Diastasis or separation which may be causing issues. We always end with stretching of areas we have worked and as a massage therapist specialising in pregnancy and postnatal ladies I also include tips on relieving typical aches and pains which we can get at this stage.

Once you have started the course you will be added to a Whats App group where you can chat to the other ladies within the group and previous groups. You will have access to my experience and knowledge to be able to ask for advice on your postnatal recovery, either through this group or privately. You are welcome to stay within this group as long as it runs or take yourself out of it.

After completing this course you can move onto the Tuesday 11am HIIT class either in person or through zoom. This also entitles you to join the Thursday 9am Zoom HIIT for free.

What you will need to bring:

Water for you
Come in comfortable clothing so you can move easily. Layer up as you will get warm
A blanket for baby to lay on over the mat

Numbers are capped at 6 for this course, so please book your place to avoid disappointment.

Testimonials

"I joined Tanya’s prenatal and postnatal exercise classes. I thoroughly enjoyed both of them and they are now one of the first things I would recommend to any pregnant friends! Tanya is amazingly knowledgable and creates such a positive and friendly atmosphere. The postnatal course has eased me back into exercise and I’ve meet some lovely friends through doing the classes. It’s also great that you can take your baby with you. I can’t recommend the course highly enough! P.S Tanya also makes the most amazing energy balls, that make a lovely treat at the end of each class"

"Tanya is amazing! She goes above and beyond to give individualised support and her knowledge about pregnancy, birth and wellbeing is incredible. She's super flexible, and the exercise classes on Zoom work fantastically. Without a doubt, the classes and support made my pregnancy and birth so much easier and a much more enjoyable experience. Thank you, Tanya!"

"I am so happy I met Tanya & found Little Therapy Space. First off, she is a pregnancy and post natal massage wizard! Secondly, she is so full of knowledge, warmth, love and kindness - she is linked with so many experts for post natal care and shares all of this with you. Thirdly, being a new mum is hard - Tanya has amazing classes where new mums and their babies can get together each week for really informative and fun classes. Tanya I cannot thank you enough for the support you gave me from the start!"

"Loved doing my post pregnancy fitness class with Tanya & the other lovely mums. Its been a strange old year being a new mum again but Tanya has bought abit of normality & joy to it. Tanya has help build up my confidence,strength & well being with her fab course. Thankyou Tanya!! "

"I went to see Tanya initially for massage, but decided to take part in her Post-natal exercise class as I have a diastasis and a couple of back problems. The class has been amazingly helpful for me in many ways. We went right back to basics with pelvic floor and core stability and looked at various strengthening exercises. I have done Body Control Pilates for several years, but Tanya's class was better than anything I have learnt at Pilates and has given me the foundation knowledge to always do my Pilates correctly and to get the most out of it. After just five weeks, my Diastasis has reduced from three fingers to just over two, I feel stronger in my core and Glutes, stand better and I can even see the difference it has made. I enjoyed the class so much that I am aiming to join future classes for a refresher!"

"After a c-section I was worried about how I would get my core stability back and I had never heard of abdominal separation. After Tanya's first session where she explained how everything worked and checked how much separation I had it was interesting to know why I had no core strength. Week by week she worked on various areas and I always left with the knowledge required to continue the exercises at home. By the end of the first 6 weeks I was nearly back to pre pregnancy and by the end of the second 6 weeks I was back to where I should be. I went to a few more classes after this until I felt comfortable that I had recovered enough and could carry on with the exercises on my own. I will be returning to these classes after my next pregnancy and know that I wouldn't have recovered properly without Tanya's knowledge and expertise. The classes are very relaxed and Tanya is very patient and easygoing. I took my baby along and it was no problem at all, if he got bored or upset, Tanya scooped him up allowing me to continue focusing on myself. Cannot recommend enough"
