Online Course

We know your time is valuable, and just like in fitness, being accountable to training each week with a coach will typically get you to your goals faster than going at it alone. In this online course, you can go at your own pace, but you’ll have a Mentor to help you along the way, to ask questions and keep you on track. You’ll also get real-world experience through weekly assignments that you can review with your mentor.

We also believe in the power of working together, in real time, to learn. You’ll have access to your MINT Mentor through each module to ask questions, bounce ideas off of, chat about client experiences you may be having, and more. 

Focus

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Movement and breathing strategies along with an awareness of anatomical and physiological changes is key in training the pregnant or postpartum woman.

Proper nutrition is key in nourishing our bodies, hormonal health and fertility. The goal is to balance getting enough nutrients to support the growth of the baby and maintaining a healthy weight. Postpartum nourishment is key in breastmilk supply, energy & healing.

When working with pregnant and postpartum clients, the most important thing they will modify is their mindset. Through every stage, it is our job to help guide our clients through the mental challenges of their journey. We help them do this by supporting them with encouragement, empathy, educational-based support, and grace.

Cara is such a phenomenal coach and has helped me in so many ways! She helped me set goals, cheered me on on rough days and worked with me to achieve them. She showed me that I can do hard things and that my body is a lot stronger than I thought it was. It felt so good just to be moving again and doing something for myself who would’ve thought that just getting out and being active could help me mentally. Not once did I ever feel judged or like I didn’t belong. Cara made me feel 100% comfortable. I now have the confidence to be in a [gym] class setting and feel like I know what I’m doing and what form I should be having so that I don’t injure myself. I’m grateful to Cara for giving me a part of my life back that I thought I’d lost.

I have worked out regularly with Cara for several years now. I’ve always known she was amazing, but this has become even more clear to me during my current pregnancy (only three weeks left!). Her training has been goal oriented with health and safety always at the forefront. It’s never easy to see your body change and feel like your abilities are slipping away uncontrollably, but Cara keeps the long view and really helped me do the same. Her knowledge of breathing, proper lifting technique, and correct/allowable core muscle use has been invaluable during my pregnancy workout routines. Of course she is always upbeat, optimistic and prepare with a variety of diverse workouts to keep things interesting. I truly love working out with Cara.

I have nothing but great things to say about Cara and the work she does as a personal trainer! After having my daughter, I decided to complete her 6-phase postpartum program. During the 6 phases, she paid close attention to what my body needed/could do and took the time to make the necessary adjustments to my training. Since completing the program, Cara has helped me gain my strength back and has also helped significantly decrease my lower back pain. Cara is an amazing trainer and I am excited to continue my fitness journey with her!
