Workshops & Training
For Fitness Professionals
Learn to safely guide pregnant and postpartum clients through training, running, lifting, and high-impact activity.
The Missing Piece
Why Fitness Pros Need Pelvic Floor Training
Your postpartum clients want to get back to the activities they love—running, CrossFit, lifting, HIIT. But without understanding pelvic floor readiness, well-intentioned programming can make symptoms worse. And the best intentions may also hold someone back when they are ready for more.
As more and more research is coming out for pregnant and postpartum training, it’s crucial to stay up to date on what is appropriate to help your client maintain their strength during pregnancy and return to training postpartum.
Dr. Danaya’s workshops give you the clinical knowledge to train pregnant and postpartum clients confidently and safely—so they can continue to exercise throughout their pregnancy and return to performance without setbacks.
