When joining Pilates while pregnant make sure to be joining “pregnant friendly” or prenatal specific classes. At Flex & Flow Pilates we recommend that after women hit their 16-week mark of pregnancy that they move over to our Pregnant Friendly classes – which we specifically programmed for pregnant women. There are certain exercises, even in Pilates, that need to be modified and omitted, for pregnant women 16 weeks +. And in the pregnant friendly classes we’ll make sure you’re working your core in the safest way.
