Welcome

Pre & Post Natal Pilates Area

This section of Sculpt is designed for my new mums and mums-to-be who want to keep the body strong and healthy throughout pregnancy and beyond.

It is so important to me to create an area where you can feel safe in the knowledge that the workouts you do are appropriate for you and baby no matter the stage of pregnancy.

These workouts not only support the body physically but also focus on supporting the hormonal changes that occur during this time.

Navigating the workouts…

Some key information for your peace of mind

  1. During your first Trimester you are safe to take part in any exercise you were doing pre-pregnancy so feel free to continue to explore the main Class Library if you are feeling up to it. However, it is likely you are feeling more tired than normal and possibly nauseous therefore the First Trimester Section is designed to help support you during this time.

  2. Second & Third Trimester section can be explored throughout the whole of your pregnancy - they are safe for any trimester.

  3. Post Natal section - Please ensure you have been signed off by a healthcare professional that you are fit to resume exercise. If you are experiencing extreme abdominal separation (Diastasis Recti) please take you time and slowly build up your strength. It is really important to listen to your body and not push yourself too much during the early stages of your post natal journey.

    Session 11 - workout 5 Strong Core Programme

    This class is taken from the Strong Core Programme and is the half way point. This should give you lots of confidence that you are able to complete this class as its definitely not easy and requires that core control that we have built over the previous 10 sessions.

    Session 10 - The Burn

    As we move into our final week, this session focuses on building up a bit of intensity and stamina. Try and keep the core flat as we curl up and try not to let the abs dome in the middle. Loved this session .

    Session 9 - Core Control 3

    The final workout in Core Control week. Shorter than the rest as there is a lot of work on the wrists and upper body - all equally amazing for building that strong core you are after.

    Session 8

    Your second core control session for the week - lots of hips and a bit of planking today! planking is an amazing exercise to build deep core strength and find that core stability. I hope you enjoy this workout, I loved filming it.

    Session 7 - Core Control

    Welcome to session 7 - here we are adding in additional strength and slowly starting to introduce spinal flexion with curling the head and shoulders off the ground. take your time with this session and if you need extra rest, take it, as this session increases in intensity.
  • Session 6 - 20 Minute Core Balance
    • 11/08/2023

    Session 6 - 20 Minute Core Balance

    Side lying & planking makes a strong appearance in this workout as its amazing for strengthening those deep core muscles as well as helping to repair Diastasis Recti. Take as much rest as you need in between exercises and focus on keeping the torso engaged and away from the mat.

  • Session 4 - Balance

    Session 4 - Balance

    This session we play around with reducing our stability. By doing this, we get the deep core muscles to work that extra bit hard to stay in our alignment.
  • Session 3 - Core Control
    • 04/08/2023

    Session 3 - Core Control

    Session 3 of our programme to re-build core strength. This workout focuses on stability and control through the core. Keep in mind your hip position and try and focus on engaging the core through the exhale - this will really help build that deep core connection.

    Session 1 - Core Engagement

    Welcome to session 1 of your post-natal programme to rebuild your core. Its important to have a clear understanding of how to properly engage your core muscles before adding in too much movement and that's what we focus on here. This session will stand you in good stead for the rest of the programme
