Prenatal Pilates
We are passionate about helping women through their entire pregnancy and beyond.
Book class
All For One is proud to offer Physiotherapist-led prenatal exercise classes for women expecting. Pregnancy is a very individual experience, accompanied by a lot of changes in your body. What better way to keep moving during this special time, than with each session being specifically designed for you?
No matter what stage of pregnancy you’re at, if you’re suffering from nausea, pain, or feeling great, in our Prenatal Exercise classes you know that you can get your body moving safely under professional guidance.
We focus on strengthening the muscles around the hips and pelvis, spinal flexibility, particularly at the later stages of pregnancy, upper body work to prepare you for holding baby, and gentle core work as appropriate to prepare for birth.
Our classes are limited to 5 pregnant women per class, and are a great opportunity to discuss your experience of pregnancy with other women.
Regular movement during pregnancy is associated with many up-sides. It can help with reducing muscular pain and discomfort, improving mood, maintaining and gaining strength, addressing the postural changes that accompany your growing belly, and many more.
Our Prenatal Pilates classes are also appropriate if you have been diagnosed with a musculoskeletal condition including pelvic girdle pain or pelvic floor dysfunction, as your program is tailored to you. We work closely with pelvic floor physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors and other health professionals that are helping manage your pain, so that we can work as a team to get you feeling your best during your pregnancy and after birth.
