The Baby Body is a pre/postnatal exercise program that focuses on helping Mamas maintain physical and mental strength during pregnancy and postpartum.
The Baby Body method uses a combination of breathwork, strength training, low impact cardio, yoga and recovery.
Every exercise is an opportunity to strengthen the core, which is our powerhouse and our babies’ home for months. The Baby Body method emphasizes core training in a safe, effective way during every phase of motherhood.
Pregnancy and postpartum can be unpredictable, which is why I created workouts that vary in duration and intensity so you can choose what works for your energy level and schedule on any given day.

BEGINNER
Perfect for those days when you wake up nauseous from morning sickness and need some light movement or when you were up half the night with the babe (we’ve all been there, Mama) and your body craves a light stretch but you don’t have the capacity for much more. We will focus on belly breathing, stretching and gentle, flowy movements.
INTERMEDIATE
Entering that second trimester and starting to feel a little more like yourself? Or maybe the babe only woke up twice last night and you’re ready to move your body. We will tap into our core engagement and work through strength moves while highlighting form.
ADVANCED
Mama is ready to work!
In these classes we work through strength training moves, get your heart rate up and work up a major sweat.
You’ll leave feeling accomplished and energized.

The Baby Body program has classes that require zero equipment and classes that you will need dumbbells, sliders, resistance bands, or a chair/bench.

If you're prenatal, it's usually safe to continue doing a similar type/intensity of exercise as you were doing prior to becoming pregnant. But please consult with your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
If you're postnatal, The Baby Body introduction classes consist of breath work, stretching and creating a mind-body connection with the core and pelvic floor. These classes are safe to begin when you feel ready. It will take 6-8 weeks to get through them to start with any exercise. That being said, please consult with your doctor before starting the program.

Yes! The Baby Body is “The Workout for Moms”.
If you’re pregnant, start with the Prenatal Intro Video and download the sample calendar.
If you’re postpartum (12 months or less OR you had a baby a while ago and feel like your core and pelvic floor could still use some rehabilitation) start with the Postnatal Intro Video and download the pdf that goes along with it (located under the “resources” tab). This pdf will explain exactly how to navigate the 6 week postnatal rehab program and where to go from there.
If you’re a Mom who feels like your core and pelvic floor are already healed, you can start the workouts! Navigate via the filters at the top and the categories that show class types as well as “Workouts for Moms”.

There is a suggested weekly calendar for the prenatal classes. You can find this with the Prenatal Intro Video under the “Resources” tab.
There isn’t a weekly calendar for postnatal, but there is a 6 week rehab program for your core and pelvic floor. I suggest starting here. Look for the Postnatal Intro video. There is a pdf download here under the “Resources” tab that will help you navigate the 6 week intro program before you start the workouts. From there, you can choose whatever workout is best for you by using the filters at the top.

NO. A lot of the prenatal workouts that I filmed during my pregnancy are also great for the postnatal period. The same applies for videos filmed when I’m not pregnant. Remember that I am adding new workouts each week, so there will be a lot of prenatal workouts where I am not pregnant in the video.
Please use the filters to determine whether something is appropriate for prenatal, postnatal or both!

Yes, yes and yes.
Everyone gets some degree of DR (separation of the rectus abdominals) during pregnancy. Some people will experience separation wider/deeper than others. Please don’t panic, Mama! This is natural and we can help to heal the separation.
The belly breathing/core and pelvic floor work during our prenatal and postnatal programs will be help prevent and heal DR. And if you feel like yours is very severe, I also recommend seeing a physical therapist who specializes in this.
