First Trimester Workouts

First Trimester Workouts

There are no major contraindications in the first trimester of pregnancy in terms of exercises and positions to avoid. That said, please use this category of classes based on how your body is feeling each day. There are videos for both the days you feel strong and want to push yourself and also videos for the days you want to move more gently.

Props Needed: A Pilates ball, resistance bands, and light dumbbells (some workouts require no equipment at all).

Level: All levels
