This is your chance to create a special memory with your baby—joining a baby-wearing exercise class designed just for you! I’m travelling all the way from Saltburn-by-the-Sea to bring this class to you, and it’s not likely to happen again anytime soon. Don’t miss out! Note: Please ensure you’re at least 6 weeks postnatal after a vaginal birth or 10 weeks after a C-section, with your health professional's approval to exercise. What to Expect This 40-minute class is set to upbeat, feel-good music and is all about lifting your mood. Expect the instructor (that is me) to bring the energy and fun as you laugh, smile and feel great being in a room full of mums who understand what you’re going through. We’ll start with a warm-up to ease into things, followed by a track focusing on connecting with your pelvic floor and lower abdominal muscles. From there, we’ll move into the main part of the class—designed to get you moving at a pace that feels right for you. You’ll be encouraged to listen to your body and join in as much or as little as you feel comfortable. I’ll provide different levels of movement throughout the workout, so whether you’re running on minimal sleep and want to keep things gentle, or you’re ready for a more advanced workout, this class will meet you where you’re at. And, of course, breaks are welcome anytime! What You’ll Need Please ensure your baby carrier is secure. You’re welcome to drop me a message about your specific carrier before the class if you’re unsure—it’s important that both you and your baby are comfortable.Wear comfortable clothes that you can move easily in and bring a water bottle to stay hydrated.If you’d like, you can also bring small hand weights (0.5kg or 1kg), but this is entirely optional.After Class Stick around for a cuppa, chat with other mums, and pick my brain!

Who Is the Instructor? That would be me... Karen Ellis, Postnatal Recovery Expert! I’m Karen, a midwife-turned-postnatal recovery specialist, and I’m exactly where I’m meant to be—helping new mums build a post-baby body they feel strong and confident in. I’m here to help you stay dry in your knickers and build a core of steel so you can be the active mum you’ve always wanted to be. I don’t believe in quick fixes when it comes to postnatal fitness. Your body is precious and deserves to be nurtured back to fitness in its own time. For some, that might take 21 days; for others, 21 months—and that’s perfectly okay. There’s no rush. When done right, your recovery will serve you for the rest of your life. I’m a mum to a 10-year-old and an 18-year-old, living in beautiful Brotton, Saltburn-by-the-Sea, on the North East Coast. This is where I became a midwife. After several years of feeling disheartened by a system that didn’t allow me to give women the care they truly deserved, I trained in postnatal and antenatal fitness and baby-wearing. Now, I’m able to support new mums in my own way. This isn’t just a typical exercise class—it’s designed specifically for mums like you. Every move in this class is tailored to the unique needs of the postnatal body, taking special care of your pelvic floor, abdominal muscles, and overall recovery. Whether you’re rebuilding strength, addressing Diastasis Recti, or just looking for a fun way to bond with your baby, this class has been created with you in mind. What Are You Waiting For? Don’t wait—secure your spot today for this one-of-a-kind Baby-Wearing Exercise Class! It’s FREE, fun, and designed to leave you feeling empowered, uplifted, and strong.
