Introduction	I am a certified Personal Trainer and a mother of 2 young girls. Before having children, I was a professional dancer. While pregnant with my first daughter I was unsure of which exercises were healthy and safe for me and the baby. I was not satisfied with the simple exercises that were given to me by various medical professionals and in my pre-natal classes. During that pregnancy my abdominal muscles split and again, I found it difficult to find good advise from the doctors and other professionals out there. I decided to make a career change and pursued my Personal Trainer Certification. I managed to correct my abdominal split and return to my pre-pregnancy weight. I began working at Goodlife Fitness after maternity leave and continued to learn and expand my certifications. Once I found out I was pregnant with my second child, I decided to study more about pre & post natal fitness and I ended up introducing Baby & Me Fitness classes to the club. With this pregnancy I was better educated and I was able to keep in great shape. The entire pregnancy was more enjoyable and I had more energy and less discomfort. I was also able to enjoy the comfort of a drug-free home birth.
