I’ve been a birth and postpartum doula for 5 years now. One of the main things I hear clients talk about it “getting their body back” after baby. Since I’ve taken this training I’ve been able to support my clients better than before staying fit while pregnant and help them feel prepared for labor and feel confident in returning to their workouts after having their baby without feeling the need to fall into bounce back culture, feeling proud of every milestone they reach and knowing they have someone in their corner no matter what stage of pregnancy or postpartum. This certification gave me the confidence to lead my clients on this path with evidence-based information.

The amount of knowledge available in this course was beyond my expectations. It gave me confidence and all the tools needed to coach new mums. I love when every information was supported with scientific evidence and in case of insufficient evidence, practical information based on client experience was given. This gave a sense of shadowing another coach. I would highly recommend this top quality course!

I’ve been a certified pre- and postnatal coach for over five years now, and I continue to renew my certification because I value staying current with best practices. As a Pilates teacher and fitness professional with a background in posture correction and rehab, the GGS Pre- & Postnatal Coaching Certification has been a game changer for me. What stood out was the way GGS teaches the science without making it feel like a textbook. The course gave me confidence in what I was already doing right, and helped me fine-tune the things I didn’t even realise needed adjusting. It shaped how I approach training by making me more attuned to the psychological and emotional side of a woman’s journey during pregnancy and postpartum, not just the physical. I’ve since worked with many women through different stages — some with pelvic floor concerns, others coming back from C-section recovery, and even those juggling toddler-chasing with chronic fatigue. Because of GGS, I know how to support them with empathy, clear coaching language, and safe, adaptable programming that meets them exactly where they are. So yes, I’m definitely a GGS fan — and fingers crossed for that valuable cert!

This course is outstanding! From the coaches to the content, GGS has nailed this one on the head! The textbook is really well written and super informative and the online portal has everything you need with super helpful demo videos to help understand how to coach women through performing movements using proper form and breathing techniques. Not to mention the online GGS community full of incredible, like-minded women lifting each other up. If you ever have any questions or queries, the team are very responsive and helpful as well, which always goes a long way! I have learnt so much in this course that is really going to help me in the coaching industry moving forward as well as with my own journey - on my way to becoming a new mumma ! Thank you Molly and the Team - I loved every minute of this course.

Most of the fitness industry is centered around men, it's only been more recently that we've even included women in medical studies. I wanted to focus my training/coaching around women and our specific needs. Having a certifiying body that focuses on women is amazing and I am so grateful for GGS. I have both the womens specialist and pre & postnatal certifications and they have helped me work with female clients and ensure I am providing the best training and knowledge to my clients.

I've complete a few pre & postnatal exercising coaching certifications and GGS is by far the most comprehensive course I've done. I finished the course feeling like I actually knew what I was talking about and am now confident to be able to guide women throughout pregnancy and postpartum. Thank you Molly and the GGS team xx.

Before earning my Pre and Postnatal Certification I had the passion but was not sure where to start. This certification gave me the knowledge confidence and credibility to launch my own business and it has been life changing. Since getting certified, I have helped countless women and mothers in my community feel stronger and more empowered through all stages of life. I now teach a women's only class at a local gym, which has become a supportive and safe space for so many. I have even teamed up with a colleague to organize a race in our town to continue bringing women together through fitness. This Cert did not just teach me the what it gave me the tools and the why to create something meaningful. It was truly the foundation for everything I have built. I am so grateful for how far this certification has taken me and I am excited to see where it leads me next as I continue to grow and expand my knowledge to help even more women in the future ❤️

My Pre and Postnatal Certification has truly elevated the way I coach. The knowledge I’ve gained has allowed me to better support women who are trying to conceive or thinking about starting that journey—and they’re thriving because of it. It’s also sharpened my approach to training by helping me create personalized programs for each client while guiding them to set realistic, achievable goals. Additionally, it’s deepened my understanding of how vital the postpartum stage is for recovery. The intentional movements we focus on during this phase support physical healing while also helping moms feel stronger and more grounded mentally. Educating women on how to properly fuel their bodies—especially while breastfeeding—has been key in helping them feel nourished, energized, and supported during this season. I absolutely LOVE it!
