 Frequently Asked Questions?

 When is it safe to return to working out?

Ask your doctor for their specific recommendations, but the general guideline is 6 weeks postpartum.


 I never worked out before/during pregnancy, is this still for me?

Even more reason to start now! Our workouts are tailored to each mom. We can make them easier or harder depending on your fitness level and where you're in your postpartum journey


 Do I have to bring my child?

Craving a little dedicated Mom time? You can absolutely come solo.


 What happens after 8 weeks?

With the skills and strength you achieved through Diapers & Dumbells, after the session ends, you can move into our group fitness classes or personal training.


 When are classes held?

Tuesday/Thursday

10:30- 11:30 am

8 week program


 What is the baby age range?

Babies should be anywhere from 6-8 weeks to 6 months for this program. Beyond that age, they'll be on the move a little too much to be able to focus on yourself!

 Can my child come to class?

Yes! This is designed as a "Mommy and Me" class where your little one can hang out with you while you workout.

  What if my child is upset during class?

That's the beauty of an all-Moms class; we understand blowouts happen, children need to be fed, or held, or talked to. Tend to your little one and hop right back into the workout!

Do I need Fitness Experience?

No experience needed! We will teach you everything you need to know to safely workout each class!

 Fitness & Pre-Postnatal Coach 

I'm excited to share that I'm now offering specialized fitness coaching for pregnant and postpartum women! As a group fitness coach, personal trainer, and someone certified in safely training pregnant & post natal women, I'm uniquely positioned to help you on your fitness journey.

Having experienced motherhood and postpartum recovery myself, I understand the challenges and joys of this period. My own postpartum fitness journey began with my daughter, Emerson, when she was just three months old, pushing her in her stroller up the big hill at Crocker Park! Back then, there weren't any postnatal programs available, which is why I'm thrilled to bring this new opportunity to local moms.

For over 15 years, I've been a professional coach and a strong, healthy role model for women and girls in athletics. I'm passionate about helping you achieve your fitness goals safely and effectively during and after pregnancy.

Will you be our next success story?
