Get Moving with Buggy Bootcamp! Keeping new Mums sane since 2012. We believe exercise should be about feeling good, more energised and ready for the day ahead.

Our groups are definitely not about weight loss or getting back into your pre-baby jeans – we prefer to focus on all the other health and well-being benefits group exercise brings to that tough first year of Motherhood. As a Mum of two herself, owner Carly understands how important it is to get out of the house early in the day, move and connect with other Mums to feel better after a crummy night’

✨ CARRIER WALK: Open Event for All Mums - BB members as well as non-members (ie bring your friends!) ✨

PLEASE RSVP HERE: https://www.facebook.com/events/802244809550946

JOIN US on an introductory guided adventure walk in Manly's beautiful natural playground. This will be a walk open to any Mums with babies in a carrier (also totally ok if you are solo and Bubs is otherwise cared for!! ☺️)

Meet outside Boathouse at Shelly Beach at 10.30am on Tues 28th July. We will leave promptly at 10.35am.

More Details:
💙TRACK: This is a CARRIER friendly walk only (track is not suitable for prams or carrying bubs in your arms). It is deemed 'moderate' track and has rocks/steps etc. You must be in suitable footwear & attire (runners and comfortable clothing for walking). Stunning views on the way up!! Cool local shortcuts on the way down !!
💙 DISTANCE: The track is a 3.3km loop starting and finishing from Boathouse at Shelly Beach, Manly. There is both uphill and downhill ~100m elevation.
We estimate the loop will likely take 40-50mins depending on stops. (NB If you also walk to meet us from Manly SLSC, FYI your total distance is closer to 5km total.)
💙 PACE: We will be going slowly to suit everyone. This is not a race and obviously we will have small bubs with us! We will have little pit stops for water/snacks/selfies where needed. That said, please try to feed bubs before we begin if you think they'll need it, to avoid the group waiting for a long time for 1 person.
💙 LED BY: The walk will be led by Alex from Buggy Bootcamp. This event is a completely free community event.
We do require all participants to self-assess whether they have the strength and ability to join this walk (especially noting they will have bubs in a carrier for this time). We note the walk takes around ~50 mins without stops and does includes hills, rocks, uneven steps etc.

Any non-member participants need to fill out a quick health form before we begin so that we have an emergency contact in the unlikely event of an emergency. Use this link to register and select "Carrier Walk" for your free session: https://www.buggybootcamp.com.au/book-free-trial-session/

Some days you just need boxing gloves, ocean views and a dose of Vitamin D 🥊

Putting off getting back into exercise?
Waiting until you feel on top of everything?
Waiting til the baby's nap schedule is perfect?

The truth of it is.. you need to start to regain your strength as soon as your baby starts to grow and get heavier.

Prepare your body for mum life in a safe, non-judgemental space full of mums in all stages. No pressure. Just everyone striving to get fitter and stronger to face their day ahead!

Not every birth story feels empowering.

Sometimes birth leaves physical scars, sometimes it leaves emotional ones and sometimes both.

As part of Birth Trauma Awareness Week (13–19 July), I want to acknowledge the mums carrying experiences that were harder than they expected.

If your birth didn't go the way you'd hoped, if you still think about it years later, if parts of it still feel heavy.. that's okay.

Birth trauma can affect so much more than recovery, it can influence how safe you feel in your body, your confidence with movement and the way you care for yourself moving forward.

That's why being MumSafe trained matters to me because mums deserve support that takes their whole experience into account.

If returning to exercise feels overwhelming, uncertain or intimidating, let's start with a conversation.

When you run a business, it's easy to only share the polished bits.
The smiling babies, the workouts.. the sunny view!!

But Buggy Bootcamp is a personal business. Us mums learn to be vulnerable with each other in this season of life.
I know my clients' birth stories, how many hours they are sleeping and the status of their pelvic floor. Too often, I also know about their fertility struggles, and when they are terrified to go back to work.

So I am sharing a bit about me. I am a mum who's navigated pregnancy, postpartum recovery, sleepless nights, self-doubt, career change, finding time for exercise, and all the beautiful chaos that comes with raising little people.

I'm also passionate about helping mums rediscover a love of exercise. More so, I want mums to experience exercise as something they get to do, not something they have to do. Safe, effective, supportive and enjoyable - what Buggy Bootcamp has always been about.

There is a reason so many local mums recommend Buggy Bootcamp. Come see for yourself 😉

🎉 Meet Samantha Samantha Hancox our 1,000th Buggy Bootcamp member!!! 🩵💙

Congrats to Sam, who has won 3 months free training with us. 💪🏻

To register 1000 members is pretty hard to believe.

Since 2012, Buggy Bootcamp has been supporting mums through our postnatal safe and effective workouts. Every one of those women has their own story, but so many have come looking for the same thing... a safe way to get moving again after having a baby, a reason to leave the house, and some friendly faces who just get it.

Over the years we've seen babies grow into school kids, mums become lifelong friends, and plenty of members come back with baby number two... and three! 🥰

What started as an exercise class has become so much more than that. It's a community. A place to breathe, laugh, move your body, build confidence again, and find a little piece of yourself amongst the beautiful chaos of motherhood.

Welcoming Samantha this week is a reminder as to just how many women have trusted us to be part of that journey, and we don't take that for granted.

To every mum who has ever rolled up with a pram (usually running a few minutes late with a coffee in hand 😅)... thank you. You've made Buggy Bootcamp what it is today.

Here's to the first 1,000... and the next 1,000. 💙🩵

She watched us do burpees on the beachfront for months before finally joining. Now she’s hooked. 🥊👶
Moral of the story: come say hi, you might just love it.

New mums need lots of things.
Connection and support? It's right up the top of that list.

Let Buggy Bootcamp be where you find your support system. Your daily place to show up, be seen, be heard and connect with other women who get it.

Moving your body and getting fitter with a world class ocean view? Not a bad bonus 😉
