Return to Impact - Strength & Mobility for Women Returning to Sport
This small-group intermediate level fitness class. led by Devan Tessolini MScPT, Registered Physiotherapist, focuses on strength and agility specifically for those that want to get back to the sports they love.
If you are looking to return to impact-based movement (e.g., jogging, jumping, performance activities) after childbirth, or are coming back from time off or injury and are looking to bridge the gap between rehab and full sport performance, this program is for you!
Using a progressive training style, where each week builds on skills from the last, we’ll train with purpose—focusing on breathwork, core integration, functional strength, and controlled power to get your body ready for impact again, getting back to impact skills that allow you to perform the sports you love with more confidence.
This class is for individuals who have been cleared by a health care provider for return to exercise (including impact), do not have any acute injury, have some experience in strength training in the last 1-2 months.
This class is:
- Ideal for people 4+ months postpartum with medical clearance
- Aimed at general strength and impact tolerance
- Suited for those that have started general strength postpartum 1-2 times a week for a minimum of 4-6 weeks
- Can perform and tolerate functional movements (hinge, squat, lunge, push, pull, carry) body weight
- Not a replacement for individualized physiotherapy care - if postpartum, we highly recommend seeking pelvic floor physiotherapy prior to or during this series for individualized assessment
Expect:
Smart progressions
Supportive small group energy
Functional movement focus
A blend of science and sweat
Spots are limited—let’s get strong, mobile, and sport-ready together!
⚠️ Note: This is a general fitness class, not a physiotherapy treatment session. If you are experiencing symptoms such as leaking, heaviness, pain, or diastasis, we strongly recommend a 1:1 pelvic health physiotherapy assessment before attending.
