Pregnancy Barre

Pregnancy Barre is a low-impact, moderate-intensity exercise class that empowers expectant mums by allowing them to safely and effectively stay in shape. Classes are made up of a series of standing-based workouts with small isolated movements that help develop muscle tone. A standard class includes exercises that incorporate a ballerina barre for balance, a set of light weights, a small inflated ball, and resistance bands. Whatever activity you choose, staying active during pregnancy can help you physically prepare for labor and delivery, and shorten your postnatal recovery time. Barre is an excellent exercise for pregnant women during any trimester, as it helps maintain muscle strength without putting extra strain on joints. We also offer Baby barre - postnatal classes for mums and bubs to join after baby is born to help rebuild and restrengthen your body post pregnancy. All classes are offered in a small setting within a studio in Howick or you can access classes online with us.
