ABOUT MAMA MOVES:

The early stages of mother-hood are the most Amazing, Rewarding and often most Tiring stage of your Life.

Mama Moves has been created specifically for You and Your Baby as an alternative for busy new mums who want to Get Fit, but don’t necessarily want to pay for Expensive Gym Memberships, nor have the time for a lengthy fitness regime.

Mama Moves is for mums to meet other like-minded mums who want to enjoy the Great Outdoors with their bubs, rather than putting them in a crèche.

We have a Healthy and Supportive approach to early motherhood fitness and Mama Moves will help you to Take Control and achieve your Weight Loss Goals, Increase your Level of Fitness and Vitality.

Mama Moves offers a Fun and Social exercise session as well as educate you on the amazing benefits, Mentally and Physically, of exercising in the Fresh Air with your baby close by!

All classes combine the elements that a new mum needs in a fitness program to target specific areas affected by pregnancy. No client is too Unfit, Overweight or Out of Shape to take part. Similarly, nobody is too Fit to take part. Although everyone is encouraged to work up a Good Sweat, classes are still Casual, Relaxed and Fun, even Mamas-2-Be are Welcome!

All classes are delivered with a Caring and Friendly approach by VIX and combine Cardio, Boxing, Body Conditioning and Pilates for a Thorough and Balanced Workout.

Mama Moves guarantees Weight loss, Stronger Pelvic Floor, Flatter Abdominals, Increased Tone and Flexibility, and most of all, a greater sense of Wellbeing, Self- Esteem and Stress Relief.
