Anja (Bump Plan Postnatal Member)
★★★★★
The Bump Plan, c-section pathway, gave me a way to return to movement shortly after c-section (I was on the mat on day 15 post-partum). I loved gentle checking-in with various muscles during recovery stage and by now in stage 2 feel safe moving as much as I want and need to, not just during sessions - but throughout the day.

★★★★★
I am really enjoying the plan! I am expecting my second child and also juggling work - the workouts have felt realistic and achievable with the 20-30 minute timings so I have been able to fit them in amongst other commitments. I also love the flexibility of the on-demand sessions. I am enjoying browsing through the education hub and also signed up to the Hypnobirthing digital pack from my welcome goodies, which I am finding very beneficial for labour prep too!
Catriona R
★★★★★
I discovered the bump plan classes in my second trimester and they made such a difference to my pregnancy. I love the fact that they prepare you for after birth too, and I am convinced my speedy post-natal recovery is largely due to them. Since 6 weeks postpartum I’ve been doing the postnatal classes and can’t believe how much my strength has returned already. It is great to have access to such knowledge, and rebuild core strength safely and sustainably. I cannot recommend these classes enough for during and after pregnancy, and I’m excited to move on to the more challenging classes soon!

I just want you to know how much I am enjoying the bump plan! In the 2 weeks that I have been using it I have noticed such a huge difference in my physical and mental well-being. I feel so calm and empowered.

I've just done my first class and wanted to say thanks to you all again - these are a godsend and I'm remembering how good they made me feel last time! :)
Carina Hirsch
★★★★★
I absolutely love your classes, they have kept me sane and fit throughout this pregnancy, I honestly don't know what I would have done without you and your array of live and on-demand classes. I am extremely thankful to Yasmine for having connected me to you and look forward to training with you both post-natally
Prenatal Testimonial
Rosie Gilderthorp
★★★★★
I also felt incredibly supported by the community and the knowledge that there were so many other women going through the workouts alongside me. For me it was not about getting "back into shape" quickly but much more about getting my sense of identity back and feeling strong enough to enjoy my three kids. I am so grateful to Hollie and the team and I fully intend to keep going with pilates forever.  Of course, I also signed up to the postnatal Bump plan as soon as it was available!

Just wanted to tell you that I am absolutely LOVING The Bump Plan! It is a life saver in these times as all my local classes in York were suspended as it wasn't possible to put all of them online. It feels so nice to still be exercising and learning. I got hooked on Pilates about a year before becoming pregnant and it has really helped my back which I have had problems with for years, but since doing pilates regularly i've barely had any issues.

I’ve been doing Hollie’s live pre-natal pilates workouts throughout my pregnancy so far and been absolutely loving them. I have learnt so much from her, she is unbelievably knowledgeable!

Thank you for creating The Bump Plan! I did your workouts most days during pregnancy, and it really helped me remain positive & strong both mentally and physically for the 9 months. My daughter Scarlett Olivia was born January 2022 in New Zealand via planned csection and I have just started the postnatal plan to continue recovering and rebuild my incredible body 💪☺️ So, thank you for the support on this motherhood journey!

I have gained so much from this plan. I have learnt so much about pregnancy, the effect on our bodies and how best to look after myself. From learning how to work out and move safely, to do pelvic floor correctly, to the videos on how to breastfeed. It's been such a great support.
Emma L
★★★★★
I loved the mix of low-impact cardio and Pilates to get an all-over workout, whilst knowing it was safe for my baby. I would thoroughly recommend Hollie to anyone - pregnant or not! I still do my pelvic floor exercises with Hollie’s hilarious visualisations in mind!

I am really enjoying The Bump Plan Postnatal! I love the workouts and how you can progress at your own pace, you can start at any point (I’m nearly 2 years pp)
Dawn Patel
★★★★★
I’m so happy I found out about Hollie’s classes in early pregnancy. Her classes challenge me, but in a safe supportive way, and I love how there’s a range of classes for each stage of pregnancy.
Madeleine Prenner
★★★★★
I am now 32 weeks pregnant and can safely say that the Bump Plan workouts pretty much mark the first time I look forward to working out and specifically try and make time for it. 
Bump Plan Baby
Hannah Wilson
★★★★★
I first started The Bump Plan in August 2021 when I was 19 weeks pregnant and immediately loved the way it helped me to keep active whilst also giving me time to get to know and respect my changing body. Hollie's workouts kept me going right up until the end of my pregnancy and reminded me that I could keep moving even if I felt like a whale! I immediately moved onto The Bump Plan Postnatal and did the first routine of the Recovery Phase at 2 days post partum. Simply taking that time to breath and appreciate what my body had done was honestly quite emotional. Now, my baby is nearly 9 weeks old and I've just done the first cardio workout of Phase 2. I finished it feeling SO proud of myself and loved getting a sweat on for reasons other than the night sweats (ew). I'm really looking forward to continuing to move up through the phases and I think I'll end up feeling even stronger and fitter than I did pre-pregnancy. 
Lisa Gilman
★★★★★
I’m Lisa, 36 weeks pregnant with my first baby. This being my first pregnancy, I didn’t know what to expect or what type of exercise was safe for me to continue to do. The Bump Plan helped me feel safe and continue to be active.

★★★★★
Taking part in the pre-natal classes was a highlight of my pregnancy. I loved that I could continue to exercise at home with expert tuition right up to the day before I gave birth. ⠀

Frequently asked questions

Is The Bump Plan safe to do while pregnant? Will it harm my baby?

Your baby’s health is of the utmost importance! The Bump Plan is safe and effective for pregnant women looking to maintain their fitness and strength during pregnancy. This does not extend to pregnant women who have any contraindications to exercise while pregnant. Exercise is not only essential but incredibly beneficial during pregnancy as it can speed up labour, decrease your risk of gestational diabetes and even reduce interventions needed during labour. The NHS also encourages an active pregnancy.

Can I start The Bump Plan at any time?

Yes, you can start The Bump Plan at any stage of your pregnancy. Each workout is tailored to a specific trimester so you can be sure you’re taking care of yourself and your baby. What makes The Bump Plan unique is that you are working out and moving through pregnancy with Hollie at the same stage as you. We recommend starting as soon as possible to get the most out of the plan for the best experience.

How long are the workouts in The Bump Plan?

The Bump Plan is designed for busy women who need short and effective workouts. The workouts range from 20-30 minutes and provide 150 minutes of exercise per week, which is recommended by the NHS during pregnancy.

Who should not use The Bump Plan?

You should not use The Bump Plan if you have a high-risk pregnancy, or have a known contraindication to exercise. All participants will be asked to fill in a Health Declaration form at the start of the plan which allows us to determine whether or not The Bump Plan is safe for you. Please consult with your doctor before signing up if you have any concerns about your pregnancy.

How much is The Bump Plan?

Our monthly subscription is £35 per month. If you choose to receive one the Luxury Starter Pack costs an additional £55 for the first month only, and the Essentials Starter Packs costs an additional £15 for the first month only.

Do I have to get a Starter Pack?

No, you don’t have to receive a Starter Pack. However, the Starter Packs include items that will be essential to your workouts (the specifically chosen Pilates ball and resistance band). If you have these already then you’re all set and don’t need to receive a Starter Pack.

What is The Bump Plan’s refund policy? Can I cancel my membership?

You can cancel your subscription at any time via the ‘Account’ area of The Bump Plan.

You are eligible for a refund if you cancel your Subscription within 14 days from the date of transaction, provided that you have not accessed or started downloading any online content and have kept any physical items we have sent you in their original condition, unworn and in their original packaging.

In order to receive your refund you must please return any physical items we have sent you as part of your Subscription at your own cost. Please email us for the address to return the starter pack to.

It’s also important to note that should you sign up, and then your consultation flags that you have a contraindication to exercise and therefore are unable to use The Bump Plan, you will be automatically refunded your initial payment.
