MAMA
LET'S RUN!

Your 12-week return to run postpartum exercise program

Lace up your shoes, we're getting ready to run!

I know... the thought of running after giving birth (or years after giving birth) may have you feeling both excited yet anxious! I get you!
 
But what if I told you that your postpartum body is strong, capable, adaptable and resilient? That you CAN run while managing leaking or pressure... whether it be as a first time runner or an experienced runner?

What if I told you... it doesn't have to be intense, overwhelming, and time consuming?

Curious about postpartum running?

Maybe you were an avid runner before motherhood but the idea of running again feels unrealistic.

Maybe you've thought about running before pregnancy but you've never felt confident in even getting started.

Maybe you don't like running but want to learn how to challenge your body and see what it's able to do.

Maybe you have prolapse, or a Diastasis Recti, or maybe you pee your pants and feel like it will never be possible again.

I get it.
 
I also shared these same feelings and fears. That's why I'm offering this program. So that you can feel confident in your body's ability to run again. To find joy in running. To find pleasure in trying something new. To feel strong in your body and to have the knowledge to listen to your body so that you gain back control!

Hi! I'm Martine Chiasson, your prenatal and postnatal fitness coach!

I'm a certified kinesiologist specialized in prenatal and postnatal fitness, with a passion in supporting pregnant and postpartum people on their journeys to parenthood. I'm also a mother to 3 children under the age of 7.​

​

When it comes to the fitness industry, you could say I’m a little bit of a misfit. I don’t coach weight loss, I don’t compare before and after photos or take any measurements. Instead we have conversations around what it means to move our bodies and how exercise can support your whole being through all of the seasons of life, the good and the hrd.

​

I help postpartum people and mothers return to exercise while getting stronger, feeling confident in their body's ability to move, all while managing pelvic floor symptoms and discomforts.

​

I am so excited to help you begin or return to running in this season of life, while still honouring your mental, emotional and physical needs!

​

  • Can I join even if I’m still in my first trimester?
    Absolutely! Unless there is a medical reason or contraindication, this class is appropriate for all trimesters! Women are usually fatigued or nauseous in the first trimester, but studies show that exercise can alleviate these symptoms, BONUS!
  • Is this safe for 3rd trimester?
    Unless there is a medical contraindication, these workouts are absolutely appropriate for the third trimester. We actually encourage you to be active near the end of pregnancy as it can alleviate some discomfort and achiness often felt by women.
  • What type of exercises will be included in this class?
    Great question! This class is meant to strengthen your whole body, therefore you can expect all types of different exercises such as: body weight, resistance banded exercises, weighted exercises as well as some relaxation poses and mobility work. This class is NOT a HIIT class nor does it have any impact exercises.
  • How long are the workouts?
    Each session will be 60 minutes each. The actual time spent moving will range from 30-40 minutes total.
  • I haven’t done exercises in years, can I still join?"
    YES! As mentionned above, these exercises are appropriate for all levels of fitness. We can modify exercises to meet you where you feel comfortable. The goal of this class is to strengthen your whole body, boost your mood and energy, and have you feeling confidant going into birth.
  • Is this refundable?
    This is non-refundable. I am confident that you will love this class, however, pregnancy is a journey, and we don't control all the variables of our journey. If something should happen, or you are no longer medically cleared to exercise (i.e bleeding, bed rest, loss of amniotic fluid, etc), or you feel uncomfortable moving forward with the class, please send me an email HERE and we can further discuss :)
