Lift & Stabilize is a dynamic yet mindful 45-minute class that targets the glutes, abdominals, and pelvic floor — the deep stabilizing muscles that support everything you do. Each class moves between standing exercises and mat work, keeping your body engaged and your mind present.

Ania guides you through intentional, effective movements using a variety of tools — resistance bands, light weights, yoga blocks for toning, and a Pilates ball — so every session feels fresh, challenging, and deeply satisfying.

Pelvic floor engagement is woven throughout the class, making this an especially powerful practice for women looking to build functional core strength, improve posture, and feel more stable and supported in their daily lives.

Why It Matters

The Pelvic Floor Connection

The pelvic floor is the foundation of your core — a group of muscles at the base of the pelvis that support your bladder, bowel, and uterus, and work in concert with your deep abdominals and glutes to stabilize your entire body.

When the pelvic floor is weak or disconnected, it can contribute to lower back pain, poor posture, incontinence, and a general feeling of instability. Lift & Stabilize addresses this directly — Ania integrates pelvic floor awareness and activation throughout every class.

Whether you are postpartum, perimenopausal, or simply want to build a stronger foundation, this class gives you the tools to reconnect with and strengthen this essential part of your body.

Postpartum Recovery

Rebuild core and pelvic floor strength safely and effectively after pregnancy.

Perimenopause & Beyond

Maintain muscle tone, bone density, and pelvic health through hormonal transitions.

Everyday Strength

Feel more stable, supported, and powerful in everything you do — from workouts to daily life.
