About the class: This mat Pilates class is aimed at new mums and designed to assist with regaining core strength, improving overall muscle tone as well as stretching tight muscles and increasing flexibility – alongside appropriately adapted core exercise. I promise lots of juicy stretches and movement focused around mindful breathwork. While the focus is on the mums, classes are adapted to ensure the babies get plenty of attention too. The environment is totally informal and the priority remains meeting your babies’ needs. Taught by: Veronica Barbaro Suitable for: This class is aimed at new mums and babies – there is no age restriction for babies so long as mums are happy to keep an eye on them if they crawl away. Benefits of class: Regaining strength post birth Loosening tight muscles and finding ease of movement Finding an opportunity to exercise with baby Meeting other local mums Testimonials: “Veronica’s classes are the highlight of my week. The chance to move, breathe and get stronger again feels amazing. She’s got great knowledge and adapts the class to suit our needs”. “Bonus is my daughter enjoys the class, but the class is relaxed and so it’s not stressful if she is grizzly or hungry”. “These classes got me through lockdown pregnancy and helped me keep up my Pilates”. “Vee’s classes are excellent! I’ve been attending for a number of years now and during that time have done her flow Pilates classes, mum and baby Pilates classes as well as her prenatal classes, and all have been brilliant. Vee is a warm, friendly teacher who gives clear, helpful instructions and I always leave feeling like I have a great workout, appropriate to the stage my body is at at the time. I highly recommend!”.
