Here's just a few of other Everyday Active sessions on offer:

Mums of Steel - Stroller Strength Fitness

Jump start weight loss, fight the baby blues, meet other mums, bond with baby and have fun!

All exercise programmes are developed specifically for the post-natal mother, including a focus on stomach toning. The classes help you to burn calories and fat through a cardio session and improve posture and muscle tone by resistance and core work.

The sessions have now been run across the district in South Oxhey, Mill End and Rickmansworth and have proven to be very popular with local mums:

"After having my baby, my health deteriorated rapidly…thanks to Mums of Steel it put me back on track and feeling more positive in myself and my outlook"

"This class has helped me so much I have post natal depression and it makes a big difference in my Tuesdays, please don't stop"
