Gym classes for working mum

[Monkey]

Does anyone know of any evening gym classes in the East Dulwich area (ideally around Goodrich/Barry road)? I am looking for a class that's tough enough to get me back into shape promptly but which will be very kind on my weak pelvic floor. Ideally I would want an instructor who is trained in women's health issues. Thank you.

Bumping this one up as truly desperate to get fit again. i am getting bigger and flabbier everyday and I am really at a loss as to what to do. All I did before (running, zumba, cross trainer) is now a no no.

Thanks!

Also following with interest! If there are no suggestions but a few people keen, I wonder if it'd be an idea to see if there is a local personal trainer willing to suggest & organise a small group class/programme?

Gosh, Monkey. I feel like I could have written this myself.

I lost weight during pregnancy and have put on a shitload since. Zumba is seriously pelvic floor challenging (and overwhelming....) Nice!

Great idea acb! I would be very keen.

And yes, doctorsaz, I think Zumba revealed the problem two years ago. Feeling brave, i tried again a few weeks ago but was both too worried about my pelvic floor and too fat to follow the steps.

ESPH do an assessment on your physical condition and then a trainer recommends exercises to do.

Could be worth trying and ask to focus on pelvic floor exercise. Then I must say, I found it hard to commit to go the gym regularly.
