Participants can expect increased energy, increased muscle strength and improved cardiovascular fitness in preparation for labor, reduced discomforts related to pregnancy and reduced recovery time after the delivery.

Each 50-minute session consists of a personalized workout based on the number of weeks of gestation and the individual needs of the client.
