More about Melanie Osmack »
Melanie Glaim-Osmack began Fit 4 Two in 2003 out of a passion to help women enjoy active pregnancies. With the birth of her son came the addition of postnatal fitness classes. It wasn't long before Melanie realized that her classes were more than physical fitness. They provided a safe place for women to ask questions, share their thoughts and support one another.
Melanie continues to break the myths around pregnancy and exercise by training certified fitness instructors and personal trainers to become pre and postnatal fitness specialists, writing for various publications and speaking at Fitness Conferences.
In February 2012, Melanie founded Pregnancy & Exercise Awareness Month and eventually gathered a team of Canada's pre and postnatal fitness leaders, professionals and academics to form an advisory team.
Let's stay active, together, outdoors, 2 metres apart.
Each year Stronger Together Vancouver organizes Workout for Womens Day, a week long fitness fundraiser for women's charities. When the full schedule is up we will post a link here. Our Fit 4 Two WWD class will take place Friday March 12, 11:00am, Outdoors at Trout Lake, on the west side of the centre along Victoria Drive. We hope to see you there!
BYOB (Bring your own Band): Participants should bring a resistance band and a yoga mat/towel for outdoor stroller fitness classes. RipCords are available for purchase online.
Due to COVID-19 we cannot share equipment and class will take place in one area. If the park is quiet, we will add some mobile exercises as well.

Fit 4 Two® Stroller Fitness
Babies love this mobile workout. Each class includes intervals of cardio drills, functional strength training and short power walks followed by postnatal-specific core work and flexibility. Our mobile intervals are ideal for babes and tots who like to be on the move. Come out and meet other moms in your community! Fit 4 Two® instructors are certified pre and postnatal fitness specialists. All fitness levels welcome.
Women should be 4+ weeks postpartum (6 weeks for caesareans). This class is ideal for ALL ages of babies and tots who enjoy the stroller, including MOBILE babies. You do not need a jogging stroller. Double strollers welcome. For safety reasons, mobile babies & tots should remain in their strollers/carriers/arms until core work. Online postnatal intake form must be completed before your first class.
