Greenwich Park
A Fun Exercise and Fitness Class for all abilities which includes Power Walking, Light Aerobics and Pilates.
Classes are an hour long and begin with a power walk warm up. In the session we will intergrate some light running with power walking up some Greenwich hills! We will use all the muscle groups; stretching tight muscles and strengthening weak muscles, working the tummies and pelvic floor!
The session will focus on posture and the exercises we do will take into account various post-natal stages.
When can I start: We advise you join us after the six week check for a natural birth and eight weeks for a ceasarean. If you are in any doubt, please consult your doctor before you resume exercise.
What kind of buggy do I need. Any buggy or pushchair as long as it is in working order. We advise bringing a pump for those big tyres and if you would like some advise on pushcahairs, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Do I have to run: We do not advise running immediatly after the birth of your baby. It is important to start exercising slowly and we suggest you begin by power walking. If running is not your thing - that is still ok, just keep power walking and power talking!
What if it is raining: Running Mummies takes place in all weather - rain or shine. The only circumstances we may have to cancel is heavy snow or gale force winds. If we do have to cancel a class we will put the details up on the website.
What to wear: Good trainers, a sports bra and comfortable top and trousers.
What to bring: A drink and snack for Mummy and baby, toy/book, sun cream, sunshade/raincover!Don’t forget: Let us know of any injuries. If something is hurting whilst exercising, stop and inform the instructor.
Do I need equipment: Just a towel, blanket or groundsheet for all those abdominal exercises!
