Level 1-2

This session is suitable for Pre and Post Natal Mummas. This mini workout is a quick and focused session to kick start your well rested glutes. Important for pelvic stability, knee function and to assist with core and back support. Plus a perky peach to boot.
We recommend you follow our specially designed programmes for each Trimester and stage of Postpartum recovery, which can be found on our website and on your welcome newsletter.
