Prenatal Strength Training for Labor + Birth: A 12-Week On-Demand Series

 An exclusive Mama's Wellness Joint + BodyWiseMama collaboration!

This 12-week series of on demand prenatal strength training classes is curated and led by certified prenatal/postpartum health + fitness coach, Kate Jesuele. Each workout will progressively prepare your body and mind for labor + birth as well as build a foundation of resiliency for postpartum recovery.

The series is intended to be followed in order - one class per week - but you have the freedom to shuffle it in any way that best fits your unique needs and preferences on a daily or weekly basis. You can replay and repeat any video as many times as you'd like throughout the course of 12+ weeks.

Recommended props and equipment include the following: a yoga mat or cushioned surface for knee comfort, 1-2 yoga blocks, a range of light-to-moderately heavy weights (resistance bands, dumbbells and/or kettle bells). You can also improvise with various "props" you have on hand at home (e.g. 12-32 oz. cans of food or bottles of water as weights, hardcover books as blocks, etc.).

Want to try before you buy? Kate has graciously agreed to share this free trial class!

Before starting the series, please check in with your doctor or midwife for any exercise contraindications based on your unique circumstances.
