FEA® Bump & Beyond: Pre & Post Natal Training Specialist

The FEA® Bump & Beyond Course successfully concluded on April 18th and 19th, 2026, marking the completion of our second batch of this highly impactful and much-needed education in the Maldivian fitness industry.

Led under the FEA education framework, this two-day practical course brought together 10 dedicated trainers from different gyms across the Maldives, all committed to expanding their knowledge and confidence in working with pre and postnatal clients.

Throughout the course, participants developed a deeper understanding of pregnancy and postnatal physiology, safe and effective exercise modifications, and the importance of structured progression when guiding clients through each stage of their journey.

The sessions focused on:

• Understanding the changes during pregnancy and postpartum recovery

• Exercise selection, regressions, and progressions for each phase

• Core and pelvic floor considerations, including conditions such as diastasis recti

• Practical coaching approaches to safely support clients step by step

More importantly, the course bridged the gap between theory and real-world coaching helping trainers feel more equipped, confident, and responsible when working with pregnant clients.

As the second batch, this reinforces what we believe strongly:

There is a growing need in the Maldives for trainers who can properly support this population — and this education is a step toward that.

This is not just about learning exercises, it’s about guiding someone through one of the most important phases of their life, safely and professionally.

Thank you to all the trainers who showed up, committed, and took this step forward in their coaching journey.

More to come
