Pre and Postnatal at FEEL THE BARRE

Safe, intelligent movement through pregnancy and beyond.

At FEEL THE BARRE, we offer a complete pre and postnatal pathway — designed to support you physically and mentally through pregnancy, birth preparation, postpartum recovery, and your return to strength training.

Our approach blends alignment-focused barre methodology with breath-led strength work and medical alignment — developed in partnership with women’s health specialists at Within — so you can move with confidence at every stage.

This is not simply a modified workout.
It is structured, intentional programming for a transformative phase of life.

BarrePREGNANT

Strength, Stability & Birth Preparation

BarrePREGNANT has supported over 200 women through pregnancy at FEEL THE BARRE. The feedback has been consistently powerful — because this class is intentionally tailored to the changing pregnant body and preparation for birth.

Barre is one of the most effective prenatal training methods: low-impact, adaptable, alignment-focused, and deeply supportive of strength endurance.

Suitable for all trimesters. We always recommend seeking medical clearance before starting.

What makes our prenatal program different

• Specifically tailored to pregnancy physiology
• Breath-led strength training
• Alignment-first technique
• Tool-supported resistance work
• Community-focused, safe space

Our signature LIIT section

Labour Intensive Interval Training

Each class includes a carefully structured endurance segment designed to build controlled strength, breath awareness, and mental focus — qualities that directly support labour preparation.

These intervals are:

• Low-impact
• Breath-led
• Fully modifiable
• Intensity-managed
• Pelvic-floor conscious

This is not high-intensity fitness.
It is intelligent endurance preparation for birth.

Development & expertise

BarrePREGNANT was originally developed in collaboration with a former professional ballet dancer and Pilates instructor who is now a qualified midwife. This ensured the program was rooted in both movement expertise and maternal understanding from the very beginning.

Postpartum is not a return to normal. It is a rebuilding phase.

Barre with BABY

Postpartum strength & reconnection

Barre with BABY is our intimate postpartum class designed to support your safe return to movement — with your baby beside you.

Each mother has her own mat. Each baby has their own space.

This class focuses on:

• Deep core reconnection
• Pelvic floor integration
• Posture restoration
• Progressive strength rebuilding
• Calm, supportive environment

Limited capacity to ensure personal attention and a relaxed atmosphere.

BarrePOSTPARTUM

Focused recovery & strength progression

Postnatal Barre follows the same evidence-based recovery principles as Barre with BABY — without babies present.

Designed for mothers who:

• Have childcare
• Have completed early postpartum recovery
• Are transitioning back into regular FTB classes
• Want slightly more dynamic programming

This class allows greater capacity while maintaining postpartum-specific structure.

In Partnership with Within

To further strengthen our postpartum offering, FEEL THE BARRE partners with Within — a women’s health platform specialising in evidence-informed pre and postnatal support.

Within provides structured medical readiness guidance to ensure your return to movement is safe, progressive, and aligned with best practice.

Through this collaboration, our postpartum programs integrate:

• Postpartum readiness checklists
• Evidence-informed training principles
• Medical clarity alongside movement expertise
