Exercise and Social Outlet for New Moms—No Babysitter Required

Moms craving some physical activity coupled with camaraderie will find just that with Strollerfit classes offered this winter at The Fieldhouse in Fishers. No need for a babysitter or daycare here; the whole idea is not to have to worry about all that and bring the kids along instead when mom wants to work up a good sweat.

Strollerfit is an exercise class and regime for new mothers to help them get fit after childbirth, and the new baby and children up to kindergarten age can come along. Classes are 50-60 minutes in duration and consist of walking, power walking or jogging—all with strollers, and workouts using various muscles, including those heavily used during pregnancy, to help build them back.

Allyson Martin and Shawnie Peterson, both of Fishers, bought the Fishers franchise of Strollerfit in early October and conduct classes three days a week. Both women are certified by the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America and have additional training in pre- and post-natal exercise as well.
They really enjoy what they do and the support it provides to new moms. Martin said,”I’m blown away by the friendships formed in my classes. It gives moms something to get up and look forward to.”

“Getting a workout and sharing with other moms helps them feel better,” said Peterson. “If moms aren’t taking care of themselves, it will affect the whole family.”

Strollerfit is helping moms stay healthy and happy. “A happy mom makes a happy baby and happy families,” Martin concluded.
