This 6 week small-group class combines postpartum-specific exercises, thoughtfully selected mobility movements, pelvic floor education, and group discussion to help you strengthen your postpartum body with intentionality and thoughtfulness. Returning to exercise after giving birth requires and deserves more guidance than "take it slow" or "just wait 6 weeks, then ease back into it".
In our 90 minute in-person sessions we focus on restoring deep core strength, reestablishing neuromuscular connections that get altered during pregnancy and birth, and improving pelvic floor & core function through whole-body exercise.
In this class you will learn:
-The signs and symptoms of pelvic floor over-activity and under-activity (and what to do about it!)
-How to perform a diastasis recti self-check and how to monitor your own progress
-Diaphragmatic breathing techniques and how to manage intraabdominal pressure
-Techniques to ease the aches and pains of feeding, carrying, holding, co-sleeping, contact napping, babywearing, and more
-How to approach exercise if you actively have prolapse, diastasis recti, accidental leakage, and other pelvic floor/core symptoms
-Protocols to return to running and sport after giving birth
-How to improve the alignment changes that happen during pregnancy and birth
The program is designed for people who are returning to exercise after giving birth and want a small group setting to learn how to re-build core strength and manage pelvic floor symptoms. Most participants in The Core Recovery Course are between 6 weeks-12 months postpartum - people returning to exercise beyond a year postpartum are still welcome to attend! It's never too late to address the aches and pains of pregnancy, birth, and motherhood.
If you're experiencing pelvic floor symptoms such as prolapse, diastasis recti, accidental leakage, pelvic pain, general core weakness, and low back pain - this course was designed with you in mind. The size of this class is kept small to allow for personalized modifications and progressions to each movement and exercise we practice.
And of course, babies are always welcome.
Enrollment also includes:
-Weekly programmed workouts you can do from home
-Access to private group chat for accountability and support
-Access to Coach Tess before and after class to discuss individual needs
Participants must be at least 6 weeks postpartum and cleared for exercise by their healthcare provider by the start of our first class.
