• The Core Recovery Method - a step-by-step, PT-designed program to heal diastasis and prolapse, recenter your organs, and rebuild your core and pelvic floor without invasive methods; virtual
• The Class - this is not necessarily a pilates class, it also doesn’t have a dedicated class for mothers. I just knew that it must be added to this list. The Class is a music-driven somatic movement studio. Every time I go there I feel so much lighter and reconnected with my body. I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone freshly postpartum though as it can get pretty intense.

A sneaky-good option if you just need a guilt-free hour to move, work or just wash your hair in silence!
