Breath, deep core and pelvic floor — rebuilding the foundation before anything else.
Private 1:1 reformer Pilates that starts with a postnatal assessment. Your core, pelvic floor and posture are rebuilt first — your shape follows.
No pressure to buy a package · we call back within 30 minutes (7am–8pm)

If a few of these sound familiar, you're not alone. And most of them have a very clear explanation.
Let's start with the question mums ask most: why won't my tummy go back, however much I train?
During pregnancy, the two bands of your abdominal muscles stretch apart to make room for your baby. After birth, the gap between them doesn't close straight away. This is called diastasis recti, or abdominal separation.
That's why your tummy can still pouch out in the middle even after you've lost the weight. It isn't simply fat — and it certainly isn't a lack of effort.
The most important part: exercises like crunches, sit-ups and full planks push pressure straight onto the weak spot, and the gap can widen. The harder you train that way, the harder it is for your tummy to recover.
They load the exact spot that's weak. Dieting won't close the gap — and it can affect your milk supply.
Your deepest abdominal muscle works like a natural corset. Activating it properly helps draw the two bands closer and makes your core stable again — and that's exactly what your instructor helps you do, one-to-one on the reformer.
So where are you now — and are you ready to train?
Choose two things below — we'll suggest whether you're ready to train, and where to start.
General guidance based on postnatal exercise recommendations (ACOG, NHS) — not a substitute for your doctor's advice. We'll go through the details with you on the call.
Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
Place 2–3 fingers across your belly button, then gently lift your head and shoulders off the floor.
If the gap between the two bands is wider than two fingers, or your tummy domes into a "tent" down the middle, you may have abdominal separation.
This is only a rough self-check, not a diagnosis from a doctor or physiotherapist. If you had a C-section less than 8 weeks ago, don't test yourself yet — wait until your scar has healed.
Whatever stage you're at, the right path starts the same way.

Your shape is the result of a body that has recovered properly — not of crash diets or rushing. Especially while you're breastfeeding.
Breath, deep core and pelvic floor — rebuilding the foundation before anything else.
Gradually build strength through your core, back, hips and whole body on the machine.
Once the foundation is solid: tone, reshape and keep it up for the long term.
Research suggests Pilates can help reduce back pain, and regular movement after birth supports mental wellbeing and lowers the risk of postnatal depression. Results vary from mum to mum.
Makes sense. But what does your first session at KHI actually look like?

Your type of birth, your baby's age, whether you've had your postnatal check, and what worries you most. If anything suggests it isn't safe yet, we'll reschedule — no exercise.
Your instructor looks at your posture, how you breathe and how you engage your core — to see where your foundation is.
The springs support you while your instructor fine-tunes every detail. You'll feel straight away what engaging the right muscles is like.
Your instructor walks you through what they noticed and suggests a plan for your stage. Whether you carry on is up to you.
Private 1:1 — just you and your instructor. No crowded class, no keeping up with anyone. Just come as you are.
This is a movement-based recovery programme, not a substitute for medical advice. You should have had your postnatal check and your doctor's go-ahead before you start.
Open all week — early mornings, lunchtimes, after work and weekends.
Long enough to train properly, without being away from your baby for too long.
Let us know in advance and we'll rebook you — life with a little one is full of surprises.
Every mum's situation is different — just ask when we call, and we'll work it out with you.

“Perceptive with students, and explains everything clearly.”
Stories from postnatal mums who have trained at KHI — we're asking their permission to share them.
Private 1:1 postnatal assessment · about an hour · at our studio in An Phú, Thủ Đức — about 10 minutes from Thảo Điền by Grab.
Want to carry on? We'll talk you through recovery packages right after the assessment — your decision, no pressure.
During opening hours, 7am–8pm. We'll ask a few questions to make sure the timing is right for you.
We only use your number to contact you and arrange your session — never shared, no spam.
Usually around 8–12 weeks, once your scar has settled and your doctor gives the go-ahead. We have a separate, gentler plan for C-section mums that puts no pressure on the scar.
Moderate exercise doesn't reduce your milk supply. We won't put you on a diet or push weight loss. Drink plenty of water, and you may find it more comfortable to feed your baby before your session.
Not at all. About 1 in 3 mums still have abdominal separation at 12 months — recovering the right way still helps, whenever you start.
Yes. You train one-to-one, starting with the assessment, and every exercise is matched to your body.
Yes. Our instructors and front desk speak English.
No. Your instructor assesses your posture, breathing, how you move and how you engage your core. If anything needs medical expertise — significant abdominal separation or frequent leaking — we'll encourage you to see a specialist.
No. Your instructor tells you what they noticed and suggests a plan; the decision is yours.
Let us know and we'll move your session — life with a little one is full of surprises. We'll explain our exact rescheduling policy when we talk.
