As a professionally trained dancer and competitive gymnast, Sophie understands the importance of movement for both physical and mental well-being. After working extensively at a women’s only gym in Earlsfield, leading their postnatal return to fitness programme, she found that this was an area of personal training that really lacked awareness. She went on to study multiple pre and postnatal fitness courses and became very passionate about empowering women to exercise during this period of their lives. Sophie is committed to providing a safe and judgement-free space for women to build strength, confidence and knowledge in their bodies. She currently works at Third Space Islington and provides online coaching.
“So from a strength training perspective the way that your body kind of changes during pregnancy is that there's quite a lot of postural changes. But if you think about the bump growing everything is kind of happening at the front of the body. So what's happening is that the shoulders might start to round your pelvis is going to shift. So it might tilt forwards it might tilt backwards which is going to change the way that your um that your muscles are balanced and your center of gravity shifts forward as well. So generally what's going to happen is that some muscles are going to become tighter and some muscles are going to become weaker which then leads to aches and pains that you might experience during pregnancy”
