**Live Online Mama Baby Class:
In the live online class version, I offer the same small group and personalized attention as in my in-person classes but it is given through Zoom. I suggest certain equipment but it's not necessary and can go with what you have at home. I like to take a moment to talk with each participant online before they start to discuss any injuries or issues going on and at the same time see what equipment they might have and make recommendations to them directly...we will make due with what you have! Some girls will use everything from canned goods to a jug of laundry and/or baby weight!
Here are some things that are suggested for the circuit training:
-small pair of free weights (5lbs for example)
-stability ball (it's a great tool to have for bouncing with baby sitting on it and for exercise)
-mini band or a resistance band
-exercise or yoga mat
-we are creative to find ways to do our cardio: different exercises, stairs, little step etc.
**If you are new to class I am offering a 10 min consult to go over anything that I need to know of in terms of injuries or any issues I should know about, including your personal goals!
