Graduate Feedback

I loved this training ideology! The entire course felt so empowering. I did a TON of research before selecting this course and it exceeded my expectations from the very first lesson!

Ryan Stec,
Certified Functional Strength Coach

I was so blown away by what I learned in this course that I was inspired to start my own company serving this population. Now it brings me so much joy to see the impact my work has had on so many lives!

Megan Clokey, Certified Personal Trainer
Owner Vibrant Mama Wellness

It’s one thing to encourage safe and effective prenatal exercise, but to be able to get into specifics about how to do that like ProNatal Fitness has done is game-changing!

Dr. Natasha Lowe Osho MD FACOG,
Board Certified OB/GYN, CPT

This was my 3rd pre & postnatal course, and it was by FAR the best one I’ve taken. It was incredibly thorough, yet so easy to understand. If you train pre or postnatal clients, or desire to, I highly recommend taking this course!

Sabrina Stockel,
Certified Personal Trainer

I used what I learned in this course to train my wife during two pregnancies, and I can happily say she did phenomenal! I am so grateful for the education I received, the confidence I built, and the incredible community I joined!

Troy Brooks,
Certified Personal Trainer

I highly recommend this course to all fitness coaches — even if you do not work specifically with pre & postnatal population. I promise you, it will positively impact the way you train ALL your clients.

Joining the PRONATAL CERTIFIED Network

The PCN membership is $150 per year. You can join at ANY point after you enroll in your course. However, if you bundle your PCN membership with your course purchase, you can save $50 on your first year in PCN. Upon enrolling, you'll get immediate access to all the benefits above EXCEPT the ProNatal Certified Badge + Website Feature. Those benefits require meeting the two additional criteria below.

This includes passing the final exam at the end of the course. See FAQs for exam details.

Hold at least ONE of the following:

  1. Current Nationally-Accredited Personal Training Certification
  2. Current Nationally-Accredited Comprehensive Pilates Certification
  3. Current Registered Yoga Teacher Certification (minimum 200-hr)
  4. An Undergraduate or Graduate degree in Exercise Science or a related discipline

You will be asked to show proof of any certifications you hold when submitting your materials for your website feature.

Don’t have one of these? You can still select the ProNatal Certified Package when enrolling in your course and receive all the other benefits included in this package. The only thing you would not be eligible for is the ProNatal Certified badge and website feature.

YES. We want you to feel good about your course purchase. Therefore, we allow you to take the first 3 modules risk-free. If you are not satisfied after these modules, you can request a full refund by emailing info@pronatalfitness.com and the materials from those modules are yours to keep.

Please note, our Full Course PDF (the electronic textbook of the entire course) is located after module 3. Once you hit this spot in the course where you have access to the entire textbook, we can no longer offer a refund.

The Course-Only comes with the option of a 3, 6, or 12 month payment plan. The ProNatal Certified Package comes with the option of a 3, 6, 12, and 18-month payment plan. All payment plans are provided through Affirm and are for U.S. credit cards.

We also offer 3 and 6 month payment plan options for non-U.S. credit cards. For this, please contact info@pronatalfitness.com.

How to Use the Affirm Payment Plan

Payment plans are personalized based on your credit score. Therefore, you will be asked to provide some very brief information to check your credit score. Note, this process is considered a soft credit check. It does NOT impact your credit score.

After adding the item to your cart, click proceed to checkout. Then, in the payment section, select Affirm – pay over time.

After selecting this, you will see all your payment plan options — including your monthly payment, total payment, and any interest (if relevant). From there, you can decide whether to proceed or not.

If you have any questions or challenges, please reach out to us at info@pronatalfitness.com or give us a call at 516-778-9468.

Note, payment plans are not available for membership renewal fees after the first year.

Not at all. Anyone interested in this topic is welcome to take the course.

If you join the ProNatal Certified Network membership, and wish to take advantage of the website feature and ProNatal Certified Badge, you do have to hold at least ONE of the following:

    • Current Nationally-Accredited Personal Training Certification
    • Current Nationally-Accredited Comprehensive Pilates Certification
    • Current Registered Yoga Teacher Certification (minimum 200-hr)
    • An Undergraduate or Graduate degree in Exercise Science or a related discipline

To receive your pre & postnatal certification and CECs, you must pass a final exam at the end of the course.

This a 2-hour timed exam that you take at home on your computer or device (no testing center). There are 80 multiple choice questions. You must receive 85% to pass (68 questions correct). You can use any notes you want, but you must complete the exam within the 2-hour time limit.

If you do not pass, you can purchase an exam re-test for $35. But don’t worry, we give you plenty of tips on how to prepare for the exam so you pass on the first try!

And if you do need to retake it, it’s the same test again, so you just need to review the questions you answered incorrectly.

After registering for the course, you will have 1-year access to complete the course. The course is estimated to take about 30 – 35 hours. If needed, you can purchase course access extensions for $35 per month. You will get email reminders to keep you on track, and you will always be able to see how much time you have left when you login to your course.

All written materials (module PDFs, self-check answer sheets, course downloads, and the electronic textbook of entire course) are available for you to download and keep.

If you are a member of the ProNatal Certified Network, you will have lifetime access to the latest course materials. You still need to complete the course and take your exam within 1 year, but after that, you will always be able to access the latest course materials (updated every 1-2 years) in your membership dashboard.

There are NO renewal requirements to maintain your pre & postnatal specialist certification. Once you take the course, you will have your certificate and CEUs.

To maintain your website feature as a ProNatal Certified Coach — along with all the other resources and benefits included in the ProNatal Certified Network — all you need to do is pay the membership fee of $150 per year.

You can join PCN at any point after enrolling in your course. If you bundle your membership with your course purchase, you save $50 on your first year.
