4 spaces left. That’s it.
Doors close Tuesday.

If you’ve been watching, meaning to message, waiting to feel “ready” - this is your nudge.

Post Natal Pilates isn’t about bouncing back.
 It’s about rebuilding properly.

Restore core and pelvic floor function Feel confident exercising again Strengthen safely after C-section or abdominal separation Train in a small, supportive group (with baby welcome)

This course has been running for 15 years in Epping because women want reassurance, structure and expert guidance - not guesswork.

If you’re in Epping, Theydon Bois, Loughton, North Weald, Ongar, Waltham Abbey, Harlow or Thornwood, this is your local chance to do this properly.

4 spaces. Doors close Tuesday.

Essential course info (because if a few people ask I’ve obviously not made it very clear):
Post Natal Pilates starts this Wednesday 4th March.
It’s a 4-week course (usually 5 but it’s a short half term)
Babies can come too but not essential. This is a class for you.
£60 includes weekly classes, access to online course and additional Pilates classes, join my other classes during the course.
And of course access to me! Ask me anything.
It’s not a basic Pilates course! This is programmed for who I have in my class. I teach in layers so I can build slowly or add challenges where you need it!
Most people don’t need more. They need less but to really build that confidence again.
Ask me anything!
Currently I waiting out my daughter’s London dance rehearsals so have an hour to kill!

PS: will be playing Lenny classics until my husband books me tickets to see him in the summer.

Returning to exercise after baby? Don’t just “wing it”!

Your body has been through a huge journey, and sometimes we push too hard too soon. If any of these sound familiar, this is for you:

You’re not sure if you have abdominal separation You’ve had a C-section and don’t know what’s safe You leak when you cough, sneeze, or laugh Your back aches daily You’re exhausted but desperate to feel stronger

That’s exactly what we cover in my 4-Week Postnatal Pilates Course starting 4 March in Epping: ✅ Small group (max 8) – babies welcome ✅ Build strength, core stability & confidence ✅ Easy-to-follow programs for home practice ✅ Fits alongside your existing schedule

Spaces are limited – book now and give yourself the safe, guided support your body deserves

Still not feeling like yourself after baby?
You want to exercise… but you don’t want to do the wrong thing.
Maybe it’s:�- A tummy that still feels disconnected�- Leaking when you sneeze or cough�- A C-section scar that feels numb or tight�- Lower back pain from feeding�- Or just not knowing what’s actually safe
The hardest part isn’t motivation.�It’s confidence.

That’s exactly why I run my 4-Week Postnatal Recovery Reset starting 4 March in Epping.

This is not a bootcamp.�It’s not “bounce back” pressure.
It’s small group, expert-led support to help you:�✔ Reconnect with your core�✔ Strengthen your pelvic floor�✔ Support C-section recovery�✔ Reduce back pain�✔ Feel strong and in control again

I’ve been supporting women through this stage for nearly 20 years - and you will be met exactly where you are.

Babies welcome (but not essential)�Maximum 8 women�Proper guidance, not guesswork

If you’re ready to feel more like you again, this is your sign.

Motherhood will break your heart open - in the most beautiful way. 🤍
No one tells you that when you have a baby, you fall in love all over again.
Not just with them - but with a version of yourself you didn’t know existed.
Motherhood stretches you. Exhausts you. Overwhelms you.  And somehow expands your capacity for love in ways you couldn’t imagine. It’s utterly beautiful and life affirming.
Today feels like the perfect reminder to love more. Love deeply. Love without holding back.
Sending so much love to you - wherever you are and whatever this day holds.

PS: did anyone see the love bombing in today? From this unashamedly heart-led business owner (and mother) xx

I’m loving the 2016 throwbacks - even though this account didn’t exist back then, Pilates in Epping and Post Natal Pilates very much did.

Looking through my photos, it’s mostly my babies being little (2 and 5), and I remember so clearly how intense life felt in that season.

Busy, emotional, exhausting, wonderful, overwhelming… all at once.

Now, with a little distance, it’s so beautiful to see just how many precious memories we made. And typically, it isn’t the big moments - it’s the simple ones. Walks. Games at home. Laughing. Getting through things together.

So if you’re in the intense bit of parenting right now - I promise, it does get easier. And one day you’ll look back and realise what a beautiful, fleeting season it really was.

I’ve created a Post Natal playlist on my YouTube channel answering so many of the questions new mums ask me about recovery, strength, core, pelvic floor, posture and getting back into exercise.

It’s honest, gentle, evidence-led guidance to help you feel more confident in your body after birth - without pressure or overwhelm.

If you’d like more personal support, you can also join my Post Natal Pilates course or work with me one to one. I have limited availability from February.

Link to the playlist and course is in my bio

Save this for later or share with a new mum who might need it 💛
