Prenatal Pilates has become very popular, and so it should, as few movement systems are better placed to allow for the postural adaptations of the mother-to-be over the course of the trimesters.

And with those changes in mind, in the interest of safe programming it is my opinion that Prenatal Pilates should be a dedicated class in its own right, where your instructor should be well versed in the developments/changes that occur over the nine-month time span in order to adapt/modify all movements to accommodate baby development and the mother’s postural changes.

Postnatal Pilates
Following birth, Postnatal Pilates can assist with both posture and figure changes.
Postnatal Pilates is a gentle three-month process of training that allows for hormonal and body changes. So, it is important to work closely with a professional Pilates instructor who can adapt/modify all movement to accommodate the mother’s changing shape.
