pregnancy Pilates

Reformer Pilates is the perfect form of exercise to undertake when pregnant. The benefits of regular Pilates during pregnancy are well recognised.

All Pilates instructors at Pillar are trained in pregnancy Pilates and we have obstetricians around Perth referring women to Pillar Pilates.


Can I attend normal classes?

Provided your obstetrician/GP/midwife has not advised against exercise, we welcome pregnant clients to attend all of our regular classes.

We just ask that you inform us of your pregnancy via email before your first class so appropriate modifications can be made.


Can I attend Pilates at Pillar throughout my entire pregnancy?

Yes! The pregnancy guidelines for exercise recommend exercise modifications be made from 16 weeks gestation. All instructors at Pillar are trained in pregnancy Pilates so the appropriate modifications for each exercise can be made with ease.

With class sizes capped at 7 clients, our instructors will ensure you are obtaining the full benefit of Pilates whilst feeling safe and comfortable. This has enabled women attend classes right up until the day they give birth!

 

PostNatal Pilates

Our specialised postnatal Pilates course is designed to support your recovery after birth, helping you rebuild strength and confidence in a safe, supportive environment.

Each class focuses on posture, core strength, and the muscles and joints most affected during pregnancy and the early months of caring for your baby.

You’ll need clearance from your healthcare provider before starting, and babies aged 6 weeks to pre-crawling are welcome to come along with you.

Courses run in 6-week blocks.

To join the next available intake, please email the studio.
