If your body doesn’t feel the way it used to after kids, you’re not alone.

Are you navigating symptoms of:

✓ Leaking when you run, jump or sneeze
✓ A core that feels weak
✓ Pelvic floor heaviness or prolapse concerns
✓ A diastasis that hasn’t fully healed
✓ Aches, pains or that “not quite right” feeling

Whether you’re 6 weeks, 6 months or 6 years postpartum, you might be unsure where to start – or how to get fitter and stronger without making symptoms worse.

Louise has been fantastic in navigating postpartum and my health/fitness journey in the midst of a newborn baby. The tools she provides have left me feeling confident to manage my nurturing and fitness in a healthy way that works around our busy schedule. Her knowledge and expertise in postpartum and female health ensured the fitness programme was suitable for my body and my lifestyle. I couldn’t recommended her more!

Louise has so much knowledge, understanding and empathy on returning to exercise postpartum. She is kind and personable and has supported me immensely both through individualised PT sessions and through the Active Mums Club. I feel so much stronger for it and I have returned to running since training with her - something I felt rather anxious about before!

I can’t recommend Louise highly enough! She's been incredibly helpful in my postpartum return to fitness. Louise will assist you in developing a manageable programme designed individually for you. I've particularly enjoyed an early introduction of weights into the training as they added an element of challenge but also helped me notice progress on a weekly basis. Working with Louise, I’ve seen real improvements in my strength, confidence, and overall fitness. She's also helped me get my nutrition under control, through helpful tweaks and words of motivation rather than rigid calorie counting. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares and delivers results, she's the one.

1:1 coaching with Louise has been such a fantastic experience for me. I was struggling to be motivated to exercise after having my second baby and then breaking my ankle. Louise made it feel instantly achievable and increased what I was doing without me really noticing. It went from feeling like a chore to exercise to something I looked forward to doing. Now I feel confident enough to attend CrossFit classes and am working towards running a 10k in October. It has made such a big difference to my life and Louise approaches it with patience and encouragement the whole way

Louise took me on for 1-1 coaching for 2 months. She was quick to kick things off with a discovery call and we discussed my current fitness levels, aspirations and goals. I liked Louise’s proactive approach and she was quick to answer any questions I had, provide modifications to exercises as well as build my self-confidence through encouragement and motivational Instagram content. The Sunday check-ins were really valuable too, to reflect on the week and appreciate the progress. The app is super easy to use to have everything in one place too. I would highly recommend Louise’s coaching programs, she has really helped me get strong after returning to running after my second baby. I now have the confidence to follow a plan and to plan the week ahead to make sure my ‘me time’ is pencilled in, something I previously found difficult to juggle. Thank you!

I started working with Louise in May when I was two months postpartum and still recovering from a C-section. She helped rebuild my confidence to move from the get-go, developing a tailored programme that helped gradually rebuild my strength and fitness, whilst fitting around my life as a first time mum. Four months on, I am feeling strong and back out running, cycling, swimming and playing tennis which is exactly where I wanted to be. I can't thank Louise enough for getting me there and couldn't recommend her enough as a coach!

Louise’s knowledge and classes have been a fantastic place to pick up exercising again after baby number 2! Louise works with you to find a range of movement that suits your abilities and is really welcoming and accommodating to the babies in the class too which put me at ease. The app and check ins were also a real bonus and motivating on non class days.

I started working with Louise on a one to one basis when I was 3 months postpartum with my second daughter. Having not done any exercise for 2 years since having my first daughter I was nervous and afraid I wouldn’t be able to do anything. Louise was so reassuring and had such a positive energy. She created a tailored program for me that was achievable and best of all practical when trying to workout with a baby and a toddler. I loved how Louise checked in with me and provided exercise progressions where needed and gave me some great advice around nutrition. Two months later I’m amazed at how strong and healthy I feel and I’ve now moved onto Louise’s MUMFIT classes to continue with the workouts I’ve been doing at home with other mums. I can’t recommend Louise enough. She is so knowledgeable around postpartum fitness and nutrition and it is such a unique time in a woman’s life it needs that support and care from an expert. After what our bodies have been through we should be prioritising our health and Louise is the perfect partner to do that with.

I've always been a bit nervous and lacked the knowledge of working out by myself, especially at home, post baby, post C section. I decided to join Louise's 6 week mum fit class, and it really has given me so much confidence to do quick workouts at home and to develop the exercises as my strength and capability develops. The classes started off really gently and Louise always offered alternatives if something was tricky or if you had pain anywhere. I also learned about scheduling in exercises really helped to hit my targets each week. And ofcourse babies are all welcome, and there's no pressure at all of the babies happen to be unsettled or you need to feed/change them. Generally the babies all for the majority of the time enjoyed watching and didn't play up too much. I'd recommend this to any mum wanting to get back to exercise post having a baby.

Louise is a superb personal trainer who specialises in post-natal fitness and recovery, and she is extremely knowledgeable and good at what she does! She also really cares and is always responsive to your needs! From our first meeting I knew immediately she'd be good for me as her positive can-do attitude was so motivating but also, she takes everything into account, not just fitness: your sleep patterns, nutrition, hormones levels, you name it! She does a thorough assessment of everything to create a bespoke programme just for you. I started with her earlier this year after struggling with my weight, sleep, energy levels, core strength and joint pain postnatally. I've now dropped 9 lbs, can lift heavy items easily without pain and can walk/dance for hours without feeling tired and achy! I feel youthful, strong and confident again and I'm comfortable in my clothes (dropped a size) for the first time in a long time. I'm also playing football with my son which makes me so happy. I would highly recommend Louise to anyone. She is simply wonderful!

I can’t wait to support you in becoming the strong, confident, active mum you want to be.
