As a first-time mom, over 35, the internet is a terrifying place. This course was the perfect solution! Everything was broken down in a thorough, comprehensive, yet easy-to-follow manner. All the information was backed by science and years of practice, and the educators are incredible to listen to. I think this course is CRUCIAL for all first-time (and non-first-time) moms!

Elizabeth Chen, first-time expecting mom

This course was amazing! I loved that it didn't just tell me what to avoid, but introduced me to exercises that are actually beneficial for pregnancy, delivery, and beyond. After completing this course, I feel so much more prepared and empowered to make my own decisions when it comes to exercising while pregnant. HIGHLY recommended!

Brittany Charrier, first-time expecting mom

I took this course because I wanted to be as strong as possible going into my third pregnancy – and it certainly gave me the tools to do that! I learned so much and I loved how everything tied back to real-life functional movement. I would recommend this course to any expecting mom hoping to feel strong and empowered during and after pregnancy!

C. Yu, mom of 2 with #3 on the way

I've always been an athlete, so when I got pregnant, I worried about not knowing what was safe. After taking this course, I not only feel confident about how to structure my workouts, but I also feel much more in tune with my pelvic floor muscles and how to safely strengthen my core to alleviate pregnancy pain and facilitate safe lifting. I look forward to applying everything I’ve just learned!

Rhonda, athlete and first-time expecting mom

I loved how this course was extremely informative, while also being so easily digestible. I was already active during my pregnancy prior to taking this course, but now my toolbox of exercises has grown so much! After completing it, I feel much more prepared for birth and postpartum recovery, and I can't wait to use the video library that’s included to create custom workouts, especially as I enter the third (and fourth!) trimester.

Anna G., first time expecting mom

After taking this course, I feel so much more confident about working out during my pregnancy! The course covered everything I needed to know. I trusted all the information because it was evidence-based with references to back it up. By applying what I’ve learned, I’ve been able to stay active and exercise with confidence, which has been a significant contributor to my positive pregnancy experience!

Anna D, first-time expecting mom

As a first-time expecting mom, pregnancy can be very overwhelming – with so many changes and unknowns. This comprehensive guide was the perfect solution for me! I loved how there were multiple ways to consume the information – videos, text, and images. Thanks to this course, I’ve been able to safely stay active during pregnancy while preparing for the ultimate goal of childbirth and the postpartum experience!

Stephanie, first-time expecting mom

I am so glad that I found this course early on in my second trimester! I knew intuitively that exercise would play a vital role in helping me have the birth experience that I want, but I was so lost on where to begin and what was safe. I loved how this course educated me on how to support my body throughout every stage. I also loved how it emphasized the need to listen to my individual body, and that it did not preach a “one-size-fits-all” approach.

Jess Rioux, First-Time Expecting Mom

Thanks to this course, I have been able to stay active during my pregnancy – with a strong core and free of back pain – and feel prepared for the physical challenges of labor and life with a newborn. I am so grateful I took this course!

Jessica Liborio, first-time expecting mom

I loved that I learned not only what to modify or alter during pregnancy, but also what exercises to focus on to help me remain strong for pregnancy, birth, and beyond!

Rachel, mom of 3 with #4 on the way

The course is very detailed, yet so easy to understand. I loved how it always provided the “why” behind any guidance given so that I could understand and appreciate the rationale. After completing it, I feel much more confident in choosing specific exercises and routines during my pregnancy!

Ivana Cusick, first-time expecting mom

Frequently Asked Questions

This guide is not, however a “workout program.” If you are interested in workouts only, explore our self-guided training programs.

While the material you learn in this guide is certainly beneficial for working with pregnant clients, it will not give you the level of information — or certificate — you need to coach pre & postnatal clients. It also does not cover postpartum training in detail. You can see the difference in content provided in our 18 module Pre/Postnatal Performance Training Specialist Course (which gives you your certificate and maximum CEUs).
