5 Stars isn't enough! If I could give 10, I absolutely would.
Bron has been an absolutely fantastic teacher -taking us through a 7 week Prenatal Reformer Course. Super caring and accomodating to our growing and changing bodies, I felt really safe and well looked after.
I'm really looking forward to returning for their Post-natal course once bubs is here.

I attended the 7 week prenatal course with Bron - I absolutely loved it! Bron was very caring, warm and welcoming and went the extra mile to ensure that myself and everyone in the course was comfortable. I am now attending the regular class with pregnancy modifications and hope to continue post baby as well :)

want to workout in a safe and supportive environment.
The class incorporates 20 minutes of centre and barre
work, wearing your baby in a front carrier, and

(arch) in your lower back and opening of rib cage, which occurs during pregnancy.
2. Safe abdominal training – gentle transverse abdominal
and internal/external oblique strengthening exercises.
3. Strengthen Pelvic Floor – regaining optimal pelvic floor function.
4. Upper and lower body strength training - building
strength in the areas which are particularly strained in the postpartum period.
5. Mind body connection - some time to connect with bubs
and focus on your own mental wellbeing.
This class is suitable for ladies which have been cleared to exercise by their LMC (lead maternity carer), and are
able to safely wear their baby for a short period and/or
