This event has been cancelled. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
This unique event brings together expert health practitioners, fitness experts and women to bust the myths about healthy eating, physical activity and provides practical information based on the latest research and evidence before, during and after pregnancy.
The choices women make in relation to nutrition and physical activity affect not only their health but also their offspring. Trying to balance the demands of family and work, along with the pressure to look in a certain way requires a nutritious diet and physical activity that is sustainable.
The interactive sessions and taster workshops will provide an ideal opportunity for women and professionals alike to gain information and learn about safe, fun activities and nutritional requirements in order to maintain health, boost energy and elate mood through the different stages in pregnancy and after childbirth.
