I'm on a mission to educate as many women as possible on the importance of core + pelvic floor strengthening throughout motherhood to menopause.

A bespoke women’s health & exercise company providing both exercise programs and education for core rehabilitation, core strengthening and diastasis recti management during pregnancy, postpartum recovery and peri - post menopause. Exercise safely under my guidance either in-person or virtually, within a group setting or solo. None of my programmes are generic, you have my full support throughout your journey.

😅 Well that was a fun one to record!!

Seriously though, so easy to perform your core exercises completely wrong - unfortunately just pulling your body in to different positions and swinging your limbs around isn’t doing anything to strengthen your core or pelvic floor.

Technique is everything!!

Watch these videos - The first half of each I’m switching on my deep core to perform the exercise correctly, the second half I’m just making shapes…

Check in on yourself - How do you compare?

When I’m engaging my deep core (first few reps) my spine and pelvis remain stable and aligned.
I’m moving slowly to allow my core muscles to respond more efficiently and my breath is in a rhythm helping to engage my pelvic floor as I move.

When it’s done correctly, it’s a completely different workout- you’ll feel so much stronger, balanced and aligned from it.

If you’re having trouble managing your technique and feel like you’re wasting your time making shapes, please contact me - a single PT session can make all the difference!

MUMS CORE + PELVIC FLOOR REHABILITATION
GROUP EXERCISE COURSE:

JANUARY BOOKINGS OPEN (All 2025 courses sold out!)

I’ll be running two courses weekly:
(Tuesdays 2 spaces left / Thursdays 3 spaces left)
both starting early January.

Each course will run weekly for 6 weeks from my beautiful, tranquil studio on the border of Hitchin - Ickleford.

Group sizes are kept small to allow for more personal tuition.

This is a progressive exercise course aiming to restore strength and function to the deep core and pelvic floor muscles after pregnancy - to help manage diastasis recti and pelvic floor weakness.

“This course is an ABSOLUTE MUST for all mums - the perfect way of strengthening your insides to support you in motherhood and returning to mainstream exercise”

Little ones are welcome to class!

Busy studio - great day!!

Absolutely not - 6 weeks doesn’t equate to where you left off 9 months and 42 days ago!

At this stage you’ll be at about 75% of your soft tissue healing and that’s if you had a natural uncomplicated birth.

This postnatal check up isn’t your green light to resume exercise.

Your insides need a little longer so please slow down on the long term goals and be proactive in your recovery.

Core & Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation should always be your first step towards moving back to your physical goals, this should be your only focus at 6 weeks.

Contact me to sign up to next terms group courses starting early January- anna@coreconfident.co.uk

💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Using light resistance is a great way to progress your core strength - adding the extra load to a movement forces you to engage your deep core muscles a little more..

This is how we get stronger…

This is how we train for life!

All set up this morning for the first 2 baby friendly courses of the term!

Core & Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation is a 6 week progressive exercise course focusing on reconnecting & strengthening the deep core & floor after pregnancy.
This rehabilitation course is an essential first step for all new mums, to strengthen the insides before returning to traditional exercise.

Functional Core Strength is an advanced level 6 week course.
This is a more challenging course for mums who have already rehabbed the core & floor.
It combines core strength exercises with full body mobility and low impact exercises.
Perfect for those hoping to return to high impact sports or strengthen for motherhood!

I’m running 2 sessions of each course weekly this term and all are booked out - please register interest with me now for next term (January) bookings will be live by the end of this week!

There’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ way that your body decides to accommodate your growing baby.
⁠
There is also no ‘one-size-fits-all’ method for helping our bodies to heal after birth.⁠
⁠
70% of people will heal with little to no intervention by 16 weeks postpartum.⁠
⁠
30% of people will need a little support with their healing, but this will look different to everybody.⁠
⁠
Here are some of the different ways i can help you, if you need that extra support with your diastasis recovery:
⁠
1. Check you breathing mechanics⁠
2. Check both your day to day postures + movement patterns
3. Check your pressure management techniques
4. Check your baby carrying / feeding positions
5. Check your ability to engage your core + pelvic floor muscles
6. Teach you how to progressively load your core

If you think you have diastasis recti and you’re unsure how to start your recovery, book in to see me for a:
POSTNATAL MOT 1:1 - I’ll check you out and set you on a path to recovery, that fits with your body and your needs ❤️
