The Boss Mama

Experienced, certified, and totally into authentically supporting women in a impactful way!

Miriam has been a qualified fitness professional since 2012 and obtained her certification as a pre- and postpartum exercise coach in 2017. She has been involved in sports her whole life, but has a soft spot of CrossFit and strength training. 

Creating a safe and supportive space, she allows moms to come as they are and gives them an opportunity to talk about sensitive topics without judgement.  

Miriam highlights the importance of technique, providing her clients with a range of options to develop a personalized movement and symptom management plan. Not digging the “one size fits all” approach, she invests  in each person she works with, ensuring their individual needs are addressed.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

FGMS is not linked to any insurance companies. However, upon any purchases, an invoice is automatically generated, which some moms have successfully submitted to their specific insurance.  It’s therefore always worth a try! 

We love coaching beginners, as well as seasoned athletes.  So no, you do not need to have any weight lifting experience. We will make sure you learn the fundamental movement pattern techniques, and progress safely over time. 

For group classes, you can either join via a monthly membership (with an option to train 1x/week or 2x/week), or purchase a 10-credit pass. Semi-private coaching requires a minimum 3-month commitment with 3 monthly payments. 

This is actually the very thing we specialize in. Over the last 7 years, we have had the honour to work with countless of moms who have come to us with Diastasis (ranging from 1.5 to 22 cm inter-recti distance), varying degrees of prolapse and urine loss during sneezing, running, of other activities. So yes, absolutely allow us to be on your support team! 

Your baby is always welcome at our “Mommy & Me” group classes and the 12-week postpartum program classes. That said, we recognize the importance of a mom having an hour to herself and therefore recommend baby only joins the postpartum program classes when necessary. 

This one absolutely depends on the individual who is asking. How their birth went, and how they are feeling now. Both, physically and mentally. We therefore recommend you contact us to establish how we can best support your needs.
