In 2009 I had a client come back to me at 6 weeks postpartum 👩🏼‍🍼with a tear-drop 💧shaped gap in her belly.

I had NO idea what it was, DESPITE the pre and postnatal trainings I had taken, and books I had read.

Ever since then I’ve been OBSESSED with learning everything I can about how to help clients prevent and heal diastasis recti.

🔹Today, we have SOOO much more awareness, 🤓education, and research 📚around this condition.

In the 15 plus years I’ve been working with diastasis recti clients, AND the 8 years I’ve been educating other teachers,
➡️ I’ve discovered that there are 3 KEY ingredients that Pilates teachers need to CONFIDENTLY deliver sessions that ACTUALLY make a LASTING difference to their clients’ healing of diastasis recti.

I’ll be sharing those 3 key ingredients during my NEXT live training The 3 Keys to Confidently Teaching Clients with Diastasis Recti.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with after this training …

✅ Definition of diastasis recti, and what causes this condition so you can CONFIDENTLY educate clients.

✅ The muscles that are ACTUALLY involved (it has VERY little to do with the re**us abs), INCLUDING how the pelvic floor is affected.

✅ 1 Modification to make ANY Pilates exercise SAFE & Effective!

➡️ Plus, we’ll uncover what’s REALLY going on with vague, restrictive guidelines like:
“Don’t teach flexion exercises.” and “Just work the transverse abs.”

I CAN’T WAIT to bring you this BRAND NEW training!

📸This is a pic of me and my best friend in 2005. I had only been teaching Pilates for about 3 years before working with her. She was my FIRST pregnant client! AND she had recently been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Of course I was nervous!! 😬 Especially back then when there wasn’t a lot of accessible education on the topic!

But because she was my friend, I felt more at ease, and I managed to teach her through her pregnancy with no issues (only positive gains like more energy & self esteem)
She gave birth to a healthy baby boy 👶🏻not long after this picture was taken.

🔹If you’re nervous about teaching pregnant & postnatal women, and want to get some experience before taking on clients, find a perinatal friend or family member to practice with!

✅ Modified Pilates (Mat and Equipment) is 100% safe AND recommended for this special population.

🔹 So pick a perinatal Pilates teacher training program, find a pregnant or postpartum person, and get to work! (And if you can’t find one, apply what you’re learning to ANY client!)

💫Remember, Pilates sessions are NOT just about the perfectly executed exercises. There is a bio-psycho-social aspect to ALL sessions. So, teach what you know with the proper modifications, and an uplifting, compassionate vibe.

And remember, you ONLY have to be “one chapter ahead” 📖 of the client you are working with!

When I started educating online 💻, Diastasis Recti was a mystery for Pilates teachers, INCLUDING me!
So, I went to work studying everything I could on the topic, and testing techniques on willing students.

So, it’s SUPER fun to see that all the blog posts and other content I’ve written over the years on the topic come up as a source. 📚
