Survival of the Fitt is thrilled to offer
Mommy and Baby Fitness Programs.
All our Mommy and Baby Fitness programs begin with a warm up with baby in our arms, followed by a more intense workout for Mom* (baby car seats and carriers welcome). The Strength and Stretch portion of the class involves baby once again as we target our legs, butt, abs and upper body with challenging drills that will not only tone us up, but will boost our metabolism too. Once we are done sweating we take time to play with the babies through song, rhyme, puppets, bubbles and parachute play – this is my favourite part because I like to sing, even if I’m not that good. The last 10 minutes is dedicated to mommy social and networking. Nothing like an adult conversation.
Mommy and Baby Yoga/Pilates
Every day stresses can cause a breakdown in body awareness. Come to this class and connect with your breathe and your inner self. As we add movement to our breathe we improve our balance, flexibility and ability to handle hard times. This movement stimulates the systems and organs of the entire body. If that’s not enough, Yoga/Pilates slows down the aging process by sending oxygen rich blood to every vessel of your body.
Mommy and Baby Indoor Fitness
This is the class for the mom who is looking for variety or just wants to try things out to see what type of exercise she enjoys. In this class we try something new every week ranging from Boxercise to Yoga/Pilates.
Mommy and Baby Stroller fitness
Enjoy the fresh air under the big, blue sky with your baby. We will explore different styles of walking, from speed to power. You’ll feel the burn as we utilize benches, banisters, hills, tree stumps and picnic tables as tools to enhance our endurance, strength and flexibility. A little Stroller Yoga under the trees is the perfect way to end off the workout. Our meeting place is in the parking lot by the washrooms.
Mommy and Baby Boogie
Put your dance shoes on and shake your booty. This is a great class for the baby who likes the baby carrier/snuggly. We work on all our moves as we take on the genres of Club, Urban, Latin, and Country. If you’re looking to embrace your curves and your new found femininity try it out, you’ll love it.
Mommy and Baby Bootcamp
I don’t know but I’ve been told
We’ll be working off our folds
I don’t know but it’s been said
By the end of this we’ll all be dead
Sound off
This one is for the serious mom who is looking to get back into that cute little pair of jeans. This class is definitely athletic and is set up in a way that will keep you working hard. Circuit training at its best includes the use of the rebounder, boxing bag, kettle bell, resistance bands, medicine balls, dumbbells and barbells. You’ll definitely feel this one the next day.
Mommy and Baby Boxercise
If you have any extra energy that you need to express without breaking your knuckles, join us for boxercise - some sparring involved which will help in terms of learning proper technique and letting out that pent up stress.
Infant/Child CPR and First Aid Workshops
Spend a couple of hours with other parents who are keen on learning all they can about how to react to an emergency. This condensed course is for your peace of mind as you will be given priceless knowledge, along with a booklet and ongoing support from our very vibrant Valerie. We insist you bring your child so that you can practice the techniques on the real thing (don’t worry we’ll be using dummies too).
Mommy and Baby Play
Are you looking for a sing-a-long group where you can learn new tunes and have some bonding time with your babe? The workout is playing with your baby.
*Please refrain from bringing your stroller into the studio (unless you are walking to the studio from your home) as space can be an issue at times.
