PRE-CLASS ASSESSMENT
It is important to have an assessment with one of our Physiotherapists prior to your first class so that we know of any issues and ensure the classes are appropriate. In this appointment, we will also do a Real Time Ultrasound assessment to teach the correct activation of the pelvic floor and deep abdominal muscles.
