Prenatal & Postpartum Reformer Pilates Policy

At BEYOND, your health and safety come first. We want every prenatal and postpartum client to feel supported and confident in their movement journey. Please review the following important guidelines:

First Trimester (up to 14 weeks)

• Medical approval required before attending reformer Pilates classes.

• If you are new to reformer Pilates, we do not recommend starting during pregnancy.

• If you have an existing Pilates practice and medical clearance, you are welcome in any class up to week 14.

Second & Third Trimesters (14+ weeks)

• Please attend Prenatal Reformer classes only.

• These classes are led by instructors trained in prenatal exercise and are designed to support your changing body safely.

• Attendance in non-prenatal reformer classes is not permitted for health and safety reasons.

New to Pilates While Pregnant?

• If you have little or no prior reformer experience, we recommend starting with private 1:1 sessions with a prenatal-qualified instructor.

• This will help you learn proper movement patterns, understand safe modifications, and build a strong foundation.

Postpartum

• Wait at least 6 weeks postpartum before resuming any workout, and only with your doctor’s approval.

• We recommend starting with Prenatal Reformer (yes, they’re postpartum-friendly!) or Reformer Reset classes to gently rebuild connection to your core and pelvic floor.

• Once cleared and comfortable, you can progress to Reformer Method classes.

Important Reminder:
Please always inform your instructor before class if you are pregnant or postpartum so we can best support you.

Pre & Postp-artum clients are also encouraged to book a private session to learn how to confidently and safely start or resume their Reformer practice when ready.
