Pilates Mom's on the Go - By Brent DOdge

Careful when you ask a woman who recently gave birth “How ya doing?” Most likely, they’ll answer with one of the following: trashed, demolished traumatized, destroyed.   These words were used by eight new mammas to describe what their bodies felt like one to five months post parturm.

Between the actual birthing process, learning and struggling with the painful breastfeeding process, and simply trying to get back into a normal routine that might allow them to do a walk or stretching session for 15-20 minutes, it was obvious these new mammas’ bodies needed some attention, recovery, focus, and guidance.

In response, The Core Studio at Alpine has launched its New Mammas Pilates Group.  For new moms, it is difficult to focus on your own body when it has been shared and nearly taken over by another small bundle of life, but with the guidance of the professionals at The Core Studio new moms get the help to get back their bodies faster and more effectively, with support of other new moms.  An hour once a week allows new moms to have time, space, and instruction on what muscles to fire, what muscles to relax, and the importance of breath, focus, and balance.  This class provides new moms the chance to reduce back and neck pain, manage incontinience, return to enjoyable sex, appreciate their new babies, and learn life long tips to keep healthy and strong while being a mom.

Last Wednesday, The Core Studio offered a free one hour session to introduce the foundations of Pilates to the New Mammas.  Sam Schmidt, MPT instructed proper pelvic recruitment, abdominal activation, correct breathing, and spine safety to the group.  This was an opportunity for the New Mammas to understand what the classes would focus on, gain the fundamentals of the Pilates method, and get a chance to meet other new moms with similar issues and goals.

The New Mammas commit to four classes during the month ($60 total) then have eight oppornities to use these.  Classes are held on Wednesday evenings and late Friday mornings.  If they want to do more than the four classes they can pay as they go.  All New Mamma’s Pilates Group have access for a free consultation with one of the Alpine Physical Therapy’s PTs.
​
If you know a new mom who is needing some support, guidance, and space to focus on her body and get healthy for her baby, The Core Studio will be offering another FREE session on the fundamentals every last Wednesday of the month at 7:30pm at Alpine Physical Therapy North. Give us a call at 541-2606, or stop by our north clinic at 2965 Stockyard Road, just behind Carino’s.
