Pilates can stay with you through pregnancy and back. The class stays the same. The exercises change with the body you bring that day.

How it works

You take part in the Mat and Reformer classes, adapted for you. State the pregnancy in the health questionnaire and tell your teacher before every class; each exercise is then set for where you are.

From around week sixteen, long periods lying on the back and strong flexion of the trunk leave the class. Side-lying series, work on all fours, standing balance and light springs stay. On the Reformer the springs give support rather than resistance.

After birth, the return starts with the go-ahead from your doctor or midwife at the postnatal check. The first weeks work on breath, the pelvic floor and the deep abdominal layer; loaded work comes back step by step.
