This is not good-bye, it's see you soon!

By
Last week was wonderful! It was busy, full, emotional, fun, and so very lovely. We had our four final sweaty Fit Your Life classes of 2016 filled with motivated women and celebrated the beginning of my "mini maternity leave" or "sabbatical" (as Keith is calling it) with a BBQ in our backyard for whomever of them could make it! Our yard has never held so many Moms, Dads, and Littles! We loved every minute of it! 

Thank you to each of you who have joined us along this journey! It has been the most incredible adventure I could imagine and I am grateful for you everyday. Without you, my lovely "clients", this dream would not be a reality. You have created this wonderful community of supportive and inspiring Mamas! Pushing yourselves and each other to be the best that you can be in this extremely special time of our lives. I cannot wait to continue to get to know each of you better during my leave and upon my return to classes!

To Keith, my rock and my love, without your support and encouragement, Fit Your Life would still be "just" a blog and these prenatal and postpartum fitness classes, along with the community that has been created, would be nothing but a wish in my heart. You are my sounding board and my bookkeeper. I literally could not do this without you. I love you more each day. 

To my sweet Brooke, you are my best inspiration. I want to be the healthiest and happiest version of  myself to be able to be the best Mommy to you and your new little sister. Your smile lights up a room and your energy keeps me going. I love teaching with you by my side and I love seeing the friends you have made in our classes! Your genuine caring heart makes mine melt when you sprint over to a crying baby to rock their bucket seat or place their soother back in their mouths. Thank you for being you!

To our beautiful daughter-to-be, as we excitedly wait your arrival, I cannot help but be so grateful for you allowing me to continue to teach classes until nearly 35 weeks pregnant. I have felt so great moving my body throughout this pregnancy as you continue to grow as you are supposed to. Thank you for being a part of this journey literally your entire life. I love you already!


Now... here are a few images from Fit Your Life's final week of 2016!

Hello! I am starting this post with a huge thank you!! Jamie and I are incredibly humbled by, and grateful for the beautiful messages we have received since opening up about our journeys through this pelvic health blog series. Amongst your notes, we have found joy in knowing that you are becoming more aware of the changes occurring within your body. Many of you have even sought assessment because of our journey and we could not be more proud of you for doing so. Truly! If you have not read our previous posts in the series, please check out Jamie’s first and second installments as we as my first that precedes this post! Also, I wanted to remind all of you that there are so many incredible women’s health physiotherapists in Edmonton and surrounding area. Jamie and I are both seeing Jillian Palmer, from Bounce Back Physical Therapy , because we had started to develop a professional relationship with her through referring clients. We appreciated her approach, and her proximity ...

Adventuring with Onya

“I have loved her, my little wanderer, with a mind full of wild forests and eyes that await adventures.” - Conny Cernik As an active mom, my girls have both spent a lot of time in a baby carrier. With our first daughter, Brooke (now three years old), we used a soft structured carrier (SSC) often for neighborhood walks, grocery shopping, adventures in the mountains, airplanes, and occasionally tasks around the house. When Mikah (now 10 months old) came along, the carrier became an extremely important part of my life! With a busy toddler to play with, snacks and meals to prepare, a house to [attempt to] keep clean and tidy, and a Little who wanted lots of snuggles (as newborns should!) “baby wearing” as it is called became part of my daily life. I am fortunate to have two girls who enjoy being “worn”, as it makes “mom life” easier with access to both hands and also makes adventuring a ton of fun! Finding a baby carrier that works for your body and that is equally comfor...

Mom & Me Fit, Prenatal Fit, Family Fit, & Mom & Me Yoga in Edmonton!! Our new Fall 2017 Schedule is here!

The evening air is cooler, the sunrise is later, and it seems like we are all settling back into our routines. I love fall. I love the crisp breeze and wearing scarves. Even for those of us not in school or without little ones in school yet, the fall is still a great time to hit a reset button. Small changes in our daily routine can have huge impacts on our health and overall fitness goals. Wake up 15 minutes earlier each day to sneak in a quick sweat or stretch. Challenge yourself to test out one new healthy recipe weekly. Carry around a water bottle to make sure you are hydrated. Focus on your alignment throughout your work day or while playing with your little ones. Schedule a class or two to attend every week to make yourself accountable to others. These are just a few ideas, but the list is lengthy! How are you adding a little extra health to your daily life? A little does go a long way and remember, do not strive to be perfect. Strive to find a healthy balance ...
