A lot of mums around Canberra message me saying the same thing:
“I don’t feel like myself after having my baby.”
“My body feels weak.”
“My core doesn’t feel stable.”
“I want to get strong again but I’m scared to hurt something.”

Postpartum training doesn’t need to be complicated or scary.
It just needs to be safe, slow, steady, and matched to your life as a new mum.

My Postpartum Personal Training program helps women in Cook, Holt, Coombs, Page, Rivett and nearby suburbs rebuild strength in a way that feels calm and doable — even when sleep is rough and energy is low.

Your body went through a massive change. Muscles stretch, joints soften, posture changes, and movement patterns shift.
Most mums don’t realise how much strength they lost until everyday tasks feel harder — pushing the pram, lifting the baby seat, carrying groceries, even standing up quickly.

Postpartum training matters because it helps:

• reconnect your core
• ease tight hips
• reduce low-back aches
• rebuild confidence in movement
• fix muscle imbalances
• strengthen your whole body gently

A lot of women around Canberra try to “bounce back” too fast and end up frustrated. The truth is… slow, structured training works way better than rushing into random workouts.

When mums jump into workouts that aren’t postpartum-safe, problems show up quick:

• pressure in the abdomen
• coning or doming in the core
• leaking during movement
• soreness in the lower back
• hip pain from unstable joints
• shoulder tension from feeding and holding baby
• flare-ups from doing exercises that weren’t ready yet

And the biggest thing I hear:

“Everything feels harder than it used to.”

Postpartum training must match your stage of recovery — not someone else’s Instagram timeline. That’s why personal training helps avoid setbacks and keeps progress steady.

I keep postpartum training simple and relaxed.
New mums don’t need pressure — they need a path.

1. We chat about your birth, recovery and day-to-day routine
Every mum’s story is different.

We talk about:

• how the birth went
• c-section or vaginal delivery
• diastasis concerns
• pelvic floor symptoms
• aches or fear around movement
• your energy, sleep, work, feeding patterns

This helps me design training that fits real life, not some perfect schedule.

2. Your training starts slow and controlled
The first few weeks focus on:

• reconnecting your core
• breathing patterns
• posture
• gentle muscle activation
• movements that feel safe

No rushing. No pushing too hard.
Your body sets the pace.

3. Strength gets added when your body is ready
As your confidence grows, we add simple strength work:

• light weights
• slow squats
• controlled hinges
• safe pressing movements
• gentle toning work
• core exercises that support recovery

All guided step-by-step so nothing feels confusing.

4. Weekly progress without overwhelming you
Small wins build fast: less back pain, stronger core, more stability picking up your baby, better energy.

Mums often say training makes them feel “more like themselves again.”

A mum in Coombs
Came to me feeling like her core was “gone.”
We rebuilt her strength slowly and she now moves without fear of hurting her back.

A mum in Holt
Was scared to squat because of knee pain.
After adjusting her stance and tempo, she can now squat pain-free while holding her toddler.

A mum in Page
Had a c-section and didn’t know where to start.
We started with breathing and low-intensity movements.
She says she feels stronger now than before pregnancy.

Every mum has a different journey — the goal is always safety first, strength second.

Women choose this program because it feels different from typical gym training.

Local coaching that fits women’s real routines

Safe for joints, hips, backs and shoulders
A lot of Canberra women deal with old injuries.

I adjust load, technique and range so you feel strong without fear.

Clear progress without confusion

• how it helps your strength and tone

No overwhelm. No guessing.

This coaching removes that pressure completely.

Women trust this service because it feels calm, structured and human. Not rushed. Not extreme.

The program adjusts around pain signals and fatigue so you don’t get flare-ups.
