Sling Strong

Combining fitness, toning, strength, stretching and movement, this class will help to strengthen all the muscles weakened by pregnancy and childbirth. The classes are carefully structured to have your baby in a sling throughout the duration.

Not a problem, feel free to stop and feed at any point in the class. We have ensured baby changing facilities at all venues.

Anything you're comfortable in but we recommend just 1 layer on your top. You're going to get warm and will be difficult taking the sling off to take layers off. For baby, we recommend you take them down to their vest, as they are going to get your heat off you too.

After you have had your 6-8 week midwife check, been given the 'all clear' to exercise and your post-partum bleeding has stopped. We recommend 6-8 weeks after a natural birth and 10-12 weeks after a caesarean.

Yes, you will need to bring your own sling with you. Either a wrap or a buckle carrier are best suited for the class. Such as Stretchy wrap, close caboo, Tula, Connecta and Beco. Babies are to be worn "tummy to tummy" or older/heavier babies may be back carried.

No, though classes are more suited to pre-walkers. However, if your baby is used to being in a sling and happy to stay in it for an hour they are more than welcome.

Yes, the classes are designed for post-natal women so the exercises will be suitable for you. If you have any pregnancy related conditions we can help adapt exercises for you, as long as the midwife has said you're fit to exercise!
