Personal Trainer for Train to Win, will help you prepare and condition your
body for your baby’s birth and help remove that excess weight once your baby

Kinesiology from the University of Wales, has been teaching and training in
the United States for the past eight years. Having started her company,
Train to Win, two years ago, Rachael approaches Fitness and Weight Loss
Programs with optimism, heart and humor. She believes her clients can
achieve more than they think they can, and they often do while working with
her. With weight loss as the end result, she works to build core strength,
endurance and confidence. As she puts it, “Once those elements go up, the
weight just comes off. And that’s when it’s rewarding – when it’s not just
about weight loss, but a change in life-style and attitude”. Rachael will
work with clients on a one-to-one basis, couples, or small groups. She will
come to you (from Hancock Park to the Westside and the SFV) with all the
necessary equipment, or you can visit her in her Encino based gym. One of
her most popular programs is the Private Boot Camp in which you gather a
group of friends, neighbors, family or co-workers and enjoy the benefits of
mutual goals, motivation and a little bit of socializing mixed in with
amazing work-outs! For more information, visit www.trn2win.com or call (818)

AND
New Services offered by Physical Therapist and Certified Pilates Instructor
in Encino - The Pilates PT (www.thepilatespt.com) is now offering Fascial
Stretch Therapy™ , a system for unlocking the flexibility potential in your
body! FST™ is a unique system of therapy & training that dramatically
improves your flexibility by lengthening your fascia. Fascia is the
connective tissue that surrounds & invests all structures of the body. The
problem is that fascia will thicken & shorten when any of your tissues are
under stress from poor posture, lack of exercise, injury, surgery, disease
or over-training. While many therapies can help these conditions, only FST™
can completely treat inflexible fascia at the deepest level - your joint
capsule. After I help make all of your layers of fascia become more pliable
& hydrated then joint range of motion, muscle strength & flexibility
immediately improves making it easier for you to train & maintain. Words
don't do enough, you need to feel it to believe it. Book your appointment
today and feel the difference of Fascial Stretch Therapy™! Also offering
Customized One-on-One Perinatal Exercise Programs. Learn SAFE and EFFECTIVE
exercises to keep your body strong, flexible and painfree throughout your
pregnancy and after delivery from a licensed Physical Therapist and
certified Pilates instructor. Exercise sessions can be combined with
targeted myofascial work to keep you strong, flexible and comfortable
throughout your pregnancy. Call Heather @ 310.871.9554 or email:

What you can get away with when you are pg!
Some of you might already know this, and some of you might not, but Shawn
has been in the process of writing a fun book about the many things that you
can get away with when you are pregnant! What she is asking of you (and
this is the fun part) is to share with her anything that you got away with
when you were pregnant, i.e. talking your way out of a speeding ticket,
front of the line access to crowded bathrooms, being able to wear horrible
stretchy maternity clothes, etc. it can be funny, serious, crazy... anything
goes!! Also, you will be quoted in her book so let her know if you would
like to be anonymous, or would like your name to be featured. Example: Jane
Doe, Redondo Beach or Jane Doe, Mother of Two or Anonymous. Email
