fitness during pregnancy, childbirth and beyond

Welcome

My name is Leanne Benson and FitBirth is a fitness company I started to work specifically with pregnant women and postnatal women. I'm a Nationally Certified Personal Trainer dedicated to providing pre/postnatal women with the opportunity to exercise safely and effectively. Staying fit during and after pregnancy doesn't have to be a chore. It can be fun and beneficial to both you and your baby!

In addition to providing personal training services, I offer several packages that include doula services for your childbirth. Doulas are labor supporters who provide emotional, physical and informational support during childbirth. Women who use a doula for support have more positive birth experiences. Having a doula substantially lowers the rates of cesareans and the use of forceps, vacuums and episiotomies.

After childbirth and in the first few months of motherhood, exercise may be the last thing on your mind. That's why I'll bring the workout to you. Exercise after pregnancy helps to prevent post-partum depression, assists in regaining muscle tone and strength (especially in the abdominals), promotes weight loss and relieves stress. I'll meet with you and design a program that fits your schedule, your budget and your goals.
