Post Natal Pilates
Taking time for yourself as a mum is something we don’t do enough. Invest in yourself and prioritise your recovery and physical and mental health.
Listening to our bodies is sometimes something we have to relearn. Pilates is gentle enough to be right for you through your postpartum journey.
Remember our bodies show up for us differently each day
Collective Motion believes the postnatal period is a crucial time for new mums to recover and recondition their bodies following the stresses of pregnancy and childbirth. We work with you to rediscover your love for movement and exercise by regaining strength and restoring tone in a controlled yet challenging environment, leaving you feeling stretched and relaxed.
If you are struggling to find the right exercise for you in your fourth trimester or are finding the concept of returning to exercise daunting, our Post Natal Pilates classes will be perfect for you. Your body changes a lot through pregnancy and childbirth. Our classes help you to get moving again while also learning to manage the demands on your body of being a new mum.
Having no more than four clients at once allows our qualified instructors to be there to help guide you through the class. Our Post Natal Pilates classes are designed for you and every exercise can be modified to meet you where your body is that day.

Improves postnatal recovery
