Trying something new can be hard. We get it. Our moms want you to know, it's okay! We have all been there and we want to encourage you to get out that door and try SLAM! Over the next few days, we are going to share what our mama's think about SLAM and what you need to know that might help encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and join us! " SLAM is so much more than a great workout. It is a safe place where moms (and dads) can come together, support each othe...r in all aspects of life, as well as show their children what it means to be a part of a strong, supportive, caring, dedicated and loving community." - Erin "SLAM no doubt offers benefits to our physical conditioning, but I think the greatest gain that comes from SLAM is for our mental health by being a part of this mom community. You can show up as you are, messy hair, screaming kids, crumbs everywhere and leave knowing you're not alone in it. So regardless of how fit you are or even how fit you want to be, come to SLAM so you don't have to do mom life alone. One of my daughters hasn't always loved sitting in her stroller, but I will keep showing up because SLAM makes me a better mom. SLAM benefits my girl's lives with friends and other mamas who know and love them. Some days I don't get much of a workout in when my girls need me, but it was still better to show up and take care of them, than to sit at home and do mom life alone." - Savannah "You don't have to be 'in shape' to try SLAM! It's literally for everyone at every stage and level." -Ashley Your first class is on us, come see what this mama community can do for you and your littles.

Are your knees facing out? Facing in? Both?? Knees are often the product of the relationship between the ankle and the hip. So if you're having issues with knee pain or controlling knee position, please seek out a PT! There's a LOT to be considered ;) An easy way to help positioning during workouts is a ball! It keeps knocked-knees apart but also brings bowed knees together to help those knee caps face forward!... *********************** If commenting with questions, tag NeuMe Physio so Addie is alerted of your post ************************ Questions about fitness during pregnancy or postpartum?
