Jasmine, Pilates Instructor
I completed the prenatal and postnatal pilates training course with Claire on the Sunshine Coast, and found the content both insightful and comprehensive across women’s health, pregnancy, and postnatal care. It’s amazing how much confidence I feel now that I have an understanding of how to safely adapt exercises for various health conditions, pregancy and beyond. I recommend doing this course for all pilates instructors seeking clarity and knowledge in their teaching.

Completed the antenatal and postnatal Pilates course and couldn’t recommend it enough for those in the Pilates space! I’m an Exercise Physiologist and Claire’s way of delivering the information is easy to comprehend yet grounded in clinical evidence which is fantastic.
Learning and recapping on all things pelvic floor, pregnancy, postpartum and pain conditions.
I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who is wanting to hone their knowledge around supporting women through the pregnancy and postpartum phase.

Mia, Pilates Instructor
This course is an absolute must for instructors!! Such important to be able to cater to pre & post natal populations in your group or private classes and this course leaves you with the confidence to know you can.
This course had me leaving with the insight that its not so much modifications or limitations that its more mindful adjustments to keep these populations safe.
There is so much misinformation out there so having a course thats based off current evidence and created by a womens health physio means you are getting the best upskilling for your clients.
This course has ignited a passion for me in working with pre/post natal populations. I can’t thank you enough Claire!
