Ante-natal

Excercise and fitness during preganancy is important and can help you get through one of the biggest days of your life! Excercising in water allows you to feel light and free, helps with swelling in the hands and feet, eases aches and pains and gives you a great opportunity for relaxation too.

Start any time from 20 weeks of pregnancy and continue until your due date.

Post-natal

Post-natal classes focus on getting you back in shape. It's never easy but by exercising in water you maximise your time by working on every muscle in your body!

Enjoy...

• Speedier healing and recovery
• Faster return to your pre-pregnancy shape and level of fitness
• Increased energy to cope with the demands of new motherhood
• Reduced stress and combat depression

With these sessions you will be working harder than when you were with bump, doing a cardiovascular workout as well as arm, leg/trunk toning exercises and of course tummy tuckers!  We will still cover bases of posture and back mobility exercises, pelvic floor review/progression, stress busters & sleep enhancement!The class is more intense than the aquanatal, and will build up during the 8 weeks. 

Since you still have relaxing hormone floating around for up to 5 months after birth the cushioned environment of the water is still the best place to exercise.You can start anytime after your 6 week check up and before expecting number 2/3 or 4!Some people find wearing an old, but clean (!) pair of trainers improves grip on the bottom of the pool, but you can manage fine with feet, its up to you!!If you are breast feeding some people have found that wearing a bra underneath the swim suit is the most comfortable, but many find it just fine without.
