Equipment
This program uses a few simple props: mainly a pilates mini ball, yoga blocks, and a resistance band.
These help support your body and get more out of the exercises, but I’ll always give alternatives where possible.
Most of these are inexpensive and easy to find (Kmart, Amazon, etc.)

Hi, I'm Anna Rutherford...

a strength and movement coach specialising in pregnancy and postpartum, a registered nurse & paramedic, and a mum myself. Based in Australia.

I created this program because returning to movement after birth can feel uncertain, even for women who’ve trained for years. My approach focuses on rebuilding strength and confidence without rushing or pressure.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Nursing and Paramedicine and am certified in pre- and postnatal coaching. I’ve also navigated two pregnancies and postpartum periods myself, which deeply informs how I support women through this phase.

My goal is to help you feel supported, informed, and confident as you return to movement, at a pace that respects your body and your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Anna Rutherford teaching postpartum strength and mobility class, Ara Women

When can I start this program after birth? You can start as early as day one postpartum. The first two weeks are intentionally gentle, focused on breath, connection, and nervous system recovery rather than exercise. There’s no waiting required.

Is this program suitable after a c-section? Yes, with one exception, we recommend waiting until at least 6 weeks post c-section before starting. From there, the program works well for c-section recovery, with modifications provided where needed.

What if I have diastasis recti (abdominal separation)? This program is designed with diastasis recti in mind. All exercises are core-safe and pelvic floor integrated. If you have a significant unassessed separation or ongoing symptoms, we recommend seeing a women’s health physio first, and Anna will guide you on this throughout the program.

Do I need any equipment? Minimal equipment, a resistance band, yoga blocks, and a pilates mini ball. All inexpensive and easy to find at Kmart or Amazon.

What if it’s not the right fit for me? There’s a 14-day try-it guarantee. If the program isn’t right for you within the first two weeks, just reach out for a full refund.
