Baby on Board Fitness

Hello! My name is Denise and I am the owner of Baby on Board Fitness. I am a qualified personal trainer and the mother of two gorgeous children, Adelaide and Henry.

Throughout my pregnancies I wanted to continue exercising but struggled to find a local class that was suitable. Most group fitness classes would allow me to attend, but I found that most exercises needed to be modified and a lot were unsuitable. Similarly, after giving birth I could not find a group fitness class that suited both me and my baby.

With a background in the fitness industry and a keen interest in the specific needs of pregnant women, I decided to create my own exercise program especially for pre and post natal women.

My prenatal classes are designed to help pregnant women maintain and even increase their fitness levels throughout their pregnancy, and to help prepare their bodies for labour. My classes include low impact cardio, conditioning (including fitball and Pilates), stretching, relaxation, labour preparation and pelvic floor exercises.

The postnatal classes are designed with both mum and baby in mind and are a great way for women to get back into shape after the birth of their baby. Each class contains both cardio and conditioning and focuses on the areas mums most want to work.

As well as holding a Certificate 3 and 4 in fitness I have completed the following courses, so you can be sure you are in good hands when attending my classes:

•Pregnancy & Postnatal exercise

•Exercising for Two

•Positive practice for the Pelvic Floor

•Postnatal abdominal rehabilitation

I look forward to helping you have a happy, healthy and active pregnancy and to assisting you regain your fitness after the birth of your baby.
