Reclaiming Your Core After Pregnancy

Congratulations, mama. You've done something incredible. But as you navigate sleepless nights and new routines, you might feel disconnected from your center.

Why "Bouncing Back" is a Myth

The term "bounce back" implies returning to exactly who you were. But your body has changed, and that's okay. Our goal is to move forward with a newfound appreciation for what your body can do.

The Danger of Crunches

Many new moms rush into sit-ups to "flatten the tummy." However, if you have Diastasis Recti (abdominal separation), this can actually make the condition worse by increasing intra-abdominal pressure.

The Align Approach

We focus on the Transversus Abdominis (TVA)—your body's internal corset. By gently re-engaging the TVA and pelvic floor with breathwork, we build a safe foundation before adding load.

Note: Make sure you have clearance from your doctor before starting any exercise routine.
