Train for free, then tell us honestly how it went.
What we leave out
- No lying on the stomach.
- From the second trimester, no long spells flat on the back — we work elevated.
- No deep twists, no hard abdominal bracing, no breath-holding.
- No stretching to the limit, because ligaments are more yielding now.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant and have never been to Move Daily.
- You have clearance from your doctor or midwife.
- No experience needed — beginners are who we'd prefer.
Everything you might ask
Why are you looking for testers at all?
Because prenatal reformer Pilates is new for us and we don't want to fix the class times at a desk. Someone who doesn't know us yet notices best where an explanation is missing or a movement feels odd. Regulars overlook those things.
From which week of pregnancy can I come?
Usually from the second trimester, so around week 13, provided the pregnancy is uncomplicated. What matters is not the week though, but what your doctor or midwife says. You're welcome in the third trimester too — we simply adapt more.
What happens in a class?
We work on the pelvic floor and breathing, on posture against the weight pulling you forward, and on strength you'll need in daily life with a child. The reformer helps: spring resistance takes weight off rather than adding it, and every position can be adjusted in small steps.
I've never done Pilates. Is that a problem?
Quite the opposite, you're exactly who we want. We need to know whether our explanations work for someone seeing a reformer for the first time. Prior knowledge would skew the result.
Is the reformer even safe during pregnancy?
With adjustments and medical clearance, yes — and it has advantages over the mat: you lie or sit supported, spring resistance can be dosed precisely, and the height is adjustable. What we leave out is stated openly and in full further up this page.
What if I feel sick or dizzy?
Then you stop straight away, sit down and have a drink — that isn't weakness, it's exactly right. We keep an eye on you, and nobody has to finish an exercise.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothes and a water bottle. You'll need grip socks on the reformer — if you don't have any, we'll give you a pair.
Is it really free?
Completely, and nothing renews automatically. If you'd like to continue afterwards, we'll tell you what it costs. If not, that's that — we won't keep chasing you.
How many places are there?
Twelve — that is how many reformers we have in the room, so exactly twelve women fit into one class. If everything is taken, we'll tell you honestly and get in touch as soon as a place opens up.
And after the birth?
Postnatal reformer Pilates with your baby already runs on Wednesdays at 10:30 am — after completed postnatal recovery and with clearance. Your baby is welcome.
Twelve places. One could be yours.
Unsure whether it suits you? Just say so — we'll answer honestly, even if the answer is that you'd be better off waiting.
