What our graduates say about the course
I had 0 knowledge when I came in, and have more knowledge when I walk out of this course. Definitely feel more confident in teaching and handling clients who are in their pre n post party journey.

Thank you for creating such an insightful and meaningful course, and you were so open, passionate and generous in sharing your knowledge and personal experience as a mum of 3 beautiful kids, which really made your teaching content very relatable and genuine! One of my greatest takeaways from Brooke is on the importance of pelvic floor strengthening using the jellyfish analogy/cue, which I am excited to share and guide my female warriors through in our sessions, especially the mummies! After these two full days course by Brooke, I felt more empowered and confident to coach women, especially mums and mums-to-be! I was really very excited and honoured to have the chance to meet Brooke in person over the last weekend after following her on IG for a year. I have been receiving good tips from her online content to conduct personal training session for my very first pregnant client and have been wanting to take her online module but somehow I couldn’t due to clashes with my work schedule. So when I learnt that FIT Asia had invited her to conduct an in person session over the weekend, I signed up for her course right away! It was indeed a weekend very well spent with Brooke and my new batch mates!

Spent last weekend being a student sitting in class, taking notes and brain-storming ideas in small groups. I love #studentlife 🤣 Been wanting to join Brooke in her class many times over the last two years but the stars were always not aligned. Glad to have caught her last weekend in Singapore! I’ve attended many women’s health and fitness courses and taught some. Brooke’s course is very well structured in her curriculum, and covers the key important aspects that all trainers need to learn and understand before working with any pregnant or postnatal mums. Most importantly, I appreciate that she shared some realistic ideals and experiences which are aligned with my own thoughts. 🥰 “Once a woman is postpartum, she is forever postpartum”

It gives me more confidence and knowledge about how the female body changes through and after pregnancy. I now have the basic knowledge to modify and come up with exercises to suit female clients of different stages.
,
Brooke was very willing to share and educate us, especially non experience moms
,
I enjoyed the course and believe this has equipped me with relevant knowledge and confidence to train pregnant and post partum mummies. Case studies were helpful in understanding what other mums may experience and how as professional help them get back to exercise.
,
Brooke give us an excellent enrichment course on pregnancy and postpartum fitness. I love it.
,
Comparing this course to the one I took previously, I had received more insights, more guidance which allows me to understand even better when comes to training preg & postpartum women, how their body reacting at every trimester. Very useful!
