FIT4MOM Walnut Creek – Stroller Strides

I attended a class with Reyna for «Stroller Strides» for my maternity health community hours. I must say I was expecting a nice walk around the park! Although this class did include a nice walk around the park, this class is so much more then that…
This class is for mothers (and probably fathers too!) who have one child, multiple children, pregnant mothers and probably even just women looking for a great workout (:p)! How many work-​out classes ENCOURAGE you to bring your kids?! I would say not too many!
There is a great sense of community between all the mothers and all the children, all of the moms get to interact with each other… And so do their children. All of the kids seem really excited to see their friends every week!
This class is a great way to bond with your child while setting a great example for healthier living… It teaches not just moms but children to encourage and show support. You could hear the children encouraging their moms while they were working out, On little girl even yelled «go mommy you can do it!!!» The moms responded by singing songs to their children while doing band-​work. «old mcdonald» and even let some of the (older kids) pick out their favorite animals to include in the song.
The strollers get lined up, an the moms face their children while working out so they can respond and interact with their children… Truly a great bonding experience and a great way to connect!
Afterwards they have a great little play session where moms can debrief about the stresses or achievements of the week, it’s like a mommy support group/​fitness class all in one!
and best of all I was suuuuper sore the next day!!! It was a really great workout!
Overall I was super impressed that a class like this exists… If you want a great workout and spend quality time with your child… This is the class for you!!!
