Mums Squad is a sports club based in Sydney that aims to help mothers get fit, have fun, and make friends. With hour-long outdoor workouts, Mums Squad offers post-natal fitness programmes that cater to different fitness levels. The workouts start at a walking pace and gradually progress to include body-weight exercises, jogging, boxing, weights, exercise circuits with resistance bands or medicine balls.
One of the unique features of Mums Squad is the provision of nannies who look after the babies and toddlers, allowing mothers to focus on themselves and their fitness goals. The trainers at Mums Squad are dedicated to helping mothers gain confidence by achieving their fitness goals and feeling fit, toned, and strong.
What sets Mums Squad apart is the sense of camaraderie and teamwork that develops among the members. By working alongside other mums who face similar challenges and share similar goals, a supportive community is built, making every session feel like something special. Since its establishment in February 2005, Mums Squad has fostered thousands of friendships.
Mothers can join Mums Squad anytime after their 6-week check-up, as long as they feel ready. The fitness programmes at Mums Squad aim to improve core strength, tone the body, aid in weight loss, increase cardio capacity, and boost metabolism. It is recommended to train at least twice a week, and missed sessions can be made up. The challenge level of the workouts increases as mothers become fitter, allowing them to achieve their desired level of fitness.
Mums Squad is located at Balmoral Oval in Sydney. Participants can easily spot the grey van with the Mum Squad and Fit 4 Dreams logo. The sessions usually take place at 8:30 am and 9:30 am, as specified in the timetable. In case of rain, the fitness training is rarely cancelled, unless there are high winds or heavy storms.
In such cases, the training is held under the cover of the Club House awning or the scout hall. The childcare area is also set up undercover, ensuring that babies and children stay dry.
To join a session at Mums Squad, participants are required to bring water, a mat, or towel, sun protection, and resistance bands if available. First-timers need to complete a fitness screening form and then proceed to the session booking part of the form. Established clients can simply call to book their spot, especially if they require childcare services.
Mums Squad does not offer a free trial, but there is no risk in trying it out. If a participant doesn't enjoy the session, there is no payment required. However, if they do enjoy the session and decide to continue, fees are applicable. The training fees for Mums Squad are the same as regular training fees, with additional charges for childcare.
Different packages are offered, including options for one, two, or three sessions per week, unlimited sessions, and online-only options.
In addition to the Balmoral Oval location, Mums Squad also holds sessions at Freshwater Reserve and North Curl Curl Surf Club. Detailed information about the timetable, contact details, and sign-up process can be found on their website and various social media platforms.
