Natal Fit - Pre and Postnatal Exercise Membership

£17.99 per month or £60 for 6 months


Natal Fit is a subscription-based, online training platform designed to help pre and postnatal women stay healthy, fit and strong throughout their pregnancy and beyond. Exercising when pregnant can be a strange time for many as there are so many unknowns regarding what is safe to do, what is beneficial to do and how women can best look after their body throughout this time of their lives. The same goes for new Mums who may be unsure of how to help their recovery and how to get back to exercise after childbirth whilst having a new baby in tow! Natal Fit is designed to take the stress away from its members by providing safe and effective workouts, no matter your fitness level. You also don't need tons of equipment or lots of spare time to fit in the workouts. All sessions are Personal Trainer led, use of equipment is optional and adaptations to suit all abilities are given throughout. Sessions last between 10-30 minutes and include a mixture of mobility+stretch, strength, cardio and core workouts. All workouts are on-demand and can be done at your own convenience, in your own home. It really is like having a Personal Trainer in your pocket, with the aim to help you keep active throughout your pregnancy and as a busy Mum.
