You heard that right! We're excited to share that we've teamed up with Women's Health Physiotherapist, Sarah Anderson (@femalephysioco) to bring you a carefully curated list of pregnancy-friendly exercises and alternative options. Whether you're pregnant or have recently given birth, we've got you covered in our Get Started Program. Each exercise will have a clear pregnancy-friendly icon so you know exactly what you can do. And if there's an exercise that isn't pregnancy-friendly, you’ll have the option of being able to swap that exercise with a pregnancy-friendly option for you.

Your health and safety are our top priority! That's why we do ask that if you are currently pregnant or early postpartum, that you speak with your local health physician, before joining our Programs or starting any sort of exercise routine, to make sure it's safe for you to do so.

With our tailored exercise options and Sarah's expertise, you can feel confident and comfortable in your pregnancy journey!
