"Jen's programme was so valuable after birth. When I hit 6 weeks postpartum I didn't know where to start. The programme helped me gently ease into exercise and really focus on my body's healing. I found Jen's videos to also be super helpful in explaining the right technique and how my movements were affecting my healing. Working through the levels helped me to get to a place where I can confidently return to my pre-birth exercise routines. I highly recommend it!"
