Success Stories

I feel 1000% confident to support my pre & postnatal members

“After completing this course, I feel 1000% confident to support my pre & postnatal members in class! Beyond that, it has significantly enhanced my skills OVERALL as an instructor. Truly invaluable information!”

Bella Flores,

Martial Arts Coach

Within a few weeks of this program, I noticed a difference

“Within the first few weeks of doing this program, I noticed a difference — less pain, better posture, a noticeable tightening in my core, easier movement, and a feeling of nearness to my pre-baby self!”

Elizabeth C.,

Mom of newborn

I am so grateful I took this course and HIGHLY recommend it!

“Taking this course was truly eye-opening. The content was clear, practical, and full of thoughtful modifications that gave me the confidence to work with members at every stage of pregnancy. I walked away not only with new tools and techniques but also with a stronger sense of purpose in helping my members feel strong, supported, and empowered. I am so grateful I took this course and HIGHLY recommend it!”

Elizabeth C.,

SLT Instructor

ProNatal has struck the balance of science and relatability

“This was such a great course that provided real-life scenarios, examples, and ways to link back to the in-class experiences that I lead every week. The content was well-organized, clear, and thorough. ProNatal has struck the delicate balance of science-backed information and relatable, approachable guidance!”

Chayanne Joel,

Group Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer

A must-have for training pregnant Pilates clients with confidence, clarity, & ease!

“This is a must-have for training pregnant Pilates clients with confidence, clarity, and ease! Pilates can be complicated (as a student and a teacher), and I appreciated how easy to follow and digestible this course was. The research is up-to-date, the guidance is actionable, and many of the concepts benefit ALL participants!”

Brenna D,

Equinox Pilates & Group Fitness Instructor

This course is a game-changer for group fitness instructors

“This course is a game-changer for group fitness instructors! I learned so much about how to create a safer and more enjoyable class experience for ALL my members – not just pre & postnatal. Truly eye-opening and a MUST for all instructors!”

Stephanie A.,

F45 Coach and Personal Trainer

This was by FAR the best pre/postnatal course I’ve taken

“I have been a personal trainer for over 10 years. This was my 3rd pre/postnatal specialist course, and this was BY FAR the best one I have taken. It was incredibly thorough — diving deep into programming for both prenatal and postpartum, whereas other certifications did not do this. I HIGHLY recommend this course!”

Sabrina Stockel,

Certified Personal Trainer

After completing this course, I feel more prepared than ever!

“Training pre & postnatal clients can be so daunting. This course explained everything in such a simple and easy-to-understand way. After completing it, I feel more prepared than ever to meet all my clients where they are on their fitness journey and support them in the best possible way!”

Kathryn H,

Resistance Chicago Lagree Senior Instructor

Thanks to this program, I felt prepared & confident going into labor

“I discovered this program when I was 25 weeks pregnant, and it was such a game-changer! Thanks to it, I felt prepared and confident going into labor, and I’ve been able to keep up with the (very physical) demands of caring for an infant without any pains or injuries. My midwife even commented on what great shape my pelvic floor was in!!”

Erica B.,

first-time mom

This course exceeded my expectations from the first lesson!

”I loved this training ideology. The entire course felt so empowering. I did a ton of research on pre & postnatal courses before selecting the ProNatal Fitness course and it exceeded my expectations from the very first lesson! I can’t recommend this course enough!”

Ryan Stec,

Certified Functional Strength Coach

To say I was BLOWN AWAY would be an understatement

“To say I was BLOWN AWAY by what I learned in this course would be an understatement. Applying what I learned during my own pregnancy, I feel stronger today than I was before pregnancy!”

Courtney Kessler,

Certified Personal Trainer
