You are looking for research-based exercise that will prepare your body for the demands of pregnancy

"These workouts make me feel grounded, strong, and prepared for motherhood. Abby has a lot of knowledge and feels like a mom friend through the screen!"
LK
"I loved learning how to connect to my breath and pelvic floor."
Emily
"I find Abby’s classes challenging and engaging and I especially like that instead of urging us to “push push push” she teaches with the foundation of breath work, form and core strength--something I knew was right but no one was really teaching!"
Ali
"The online platform allow me to pick and choose what works for me in that moment, from how much time I have to how I am looking to feel that day."
Colleen
"Thank you for reconnecting me to my body and for being a strong support through pregnancy and postpartum."

Is this program good for fertility?
We intentionally named this program Pregnancy Prep because we wanted to be clear this is not a program to help you GET pregnant but to help prepare your body for your future pregnancy. The aim of this program is to help build a foundation that may help lessen the severity of or prevent some common pregnancy issues.
Notice our intentional use of the words “may” and “some” in the sentence above. We want to be clear that we are not claiming this program will make for a perfect, pain free pregnancy. In fact, we would caution you against anyone claiming that. What we can confidently claim is that exercise is very beneficial for you during this time, and our program is intentionally designed to help prepare your body for pregnancy.
