"I was encouraged and inspired by the way the exercises helped me reconnect to my core muscles initially and then begin to strengthen them again. The emphasis on correct pelvis alignment was also very helpful. Anna is extremely knowledgeable and engaging throughout the program. I am so thankful for a program like this! It is helping me feel confident to get back to dancing with a strong core! The encouragement to move slowly and with connection to the breath was very helpful to bring that brain-body relationship back. I appreciated the work in side planks and all the glute activation exercises as those parts of the body feel less stable after pregnancy. I so appreciated the video explanations. I know revisiting these foundational exercises will be key to keeping a healthy lifestyle as more movement comes back into life post baby."
"Core strength is paramount and is so hard to gain back post pregnancy. This program made that process so much easier than in my previous pregnancy/childbirth recovery!! I felt secure knowing Anna had sequenced each week intentionally and my body would be protected while gaining strength"

As a fellow cesarean mom, I relate to all of these feelings. I know the challenge of belly birth and the stigma that can come with a cesarean birth. I also understand the effects of having a major abdominal surgery that requires proper rehabilitation and education to heal well. Many cesarean moms are completely surprised by experiencing pelvic floor issues after birth. On top of the additional challenges of a belly birth, this can feel discouraging. I developed The Strong Core Mama Cesarean Track to ensure all moms can maximize healing. The Strong Core Mama Cesarean Track was designed for mamas just like you!
All mamas should experience optimized healing. Strong Core Mama's Cesarean Track will help you rebuild core strength, minimize scar pain, and maximize healing.
I’ve got a new narrative for you.

What is the Value of...
"Through the educational videos I learned ways to fix my posture and get realigned. The course also helped me strengthen my core and hip muscles which I guess I don’t use enough in my life! While I am still quite active, I tend to not do enough stretching and to do the same exercises over and over again. Over time, I had developed a persistent problem with hip bursitis. The exercises in the program really helped me address that specific issue, and I was symptom-free within a few weeks. Anna knows her stuff! At my age (63) I want to take care of my body so I can stay active long-term. I recommend Strong Core Mama to women of all ages!”
"I had my three babies 29, 32, and 34 years ago, but Strong Core Mama still provided valuable help for me!"
Each class should take between 15-20 minutes in total depending on how many reps, sets and rest breaks you take. I encourage every mom to go through each class at least twice per week to experience results. Once enrolled, you will be instructed on specifics of how to progress through the program to maximize your progress and success.
How much time will this program take weekly?
YES! Check out the blog on Diastasis Recti to learn about how the Strong Core Mama program can heal your abdominal gap. The entire program uses evidence-based methods to heal diastasis recti. Each class emphasizes rebuilding your core in order to regain complete function of your abs while also protecting your pelvic floor. A common pitfall of many “mom tummy” programs is that they don’t take into account the pelvic floor and how it should properly be working alongside the core in order to heal diastasis recti. Then I end up seeing these patients in the clinic because their pelvic floor issues were not healed. Seeing this so often is one of the major reasons I wanted to create this program!
Do your classes address diastasis recti?
YES! Our program is designed to address pelvic floor dysfunction through exercise and education. I am a certified Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist with experience treating hundreds of women with pelvic floor issues.
Do your classes address pelvic floor dysfunction?
YES! During pregnancy we all go through a lot of physiological changes so restoring neutral body alignment through exercise is very necessary. Both c-section and vaginal deliveries undergo severe core and pelvic floor weakness so both will benefit from the brain-body strength exercises instructed throughout the program. I understand personally the recovery of an unplanned c-section recovery. I’ve worked with hundreds of moms who have had both types of deliveries. The Cesarean Track offers specific education and exercises designed to help cesarean moms heal and restore.
Can both c-section and vaginal delivery moms participate?
NO! It is never too late to make progress on your core and pelvic floor. I have moms who have become grandmas who are doing the course for the first time, and they are amazed by the outcomes that they see, even 30+ years out from having kids!
Do I have to be a newborn mom to be able to participate in this program?
Any mom after 6 weeks postpartum, with OB clearance, can participate in SCM.
