I am not very fit, will the Fit Wāhine classes cater to my fitness level?

We know it’s hard to get started sis, but you do not have to face those obstacles alone because we’ve got your back! All-Fit Wāhine workouts have alternative exercises. The Fit Wāhine Coach will demonstrate all alternatives for all GOLD & SILVER classes. We always encourage you to listen to your tinana, go at your own pace and do what works for you. Most of our workouts are time-based which means you perform as many reps as you can within the time. And of course, there are breaks in between.

I am breastfeeding, will the Live and Zoom workouts have an effect on my milk supply?

We are not breastfeeding consultants however, according to research, moderate exercise shouldn’t have an effect on your milk supply, however, it is really important to note that every wāhine is different and it’s something that every breastfeeding wahine needs to keep in mind. Some wāhine may find their milk supply is affected by exercise and others may have no problem at all. We always encourage you to listen to your tinana and seek medical advice if you are worried.

I don’t understand Te Reo Māori, will I know what to do in the workouts? Can I still attend or watch the Live or Zoom classes?

Although you may not understand Te Reo Māori, you will still be able to watch and see what exercises Coach Puawai is delivering during the workout. We suggest showing up to our Reo Rua/Bilingual classes first so that you get the hang of it before joining a Full Te Reo Māori workout.

I am not Māori, can I still join Fit Wāhine?

Absolutely yes! If you feel that you align with the Fit Wāhine Movement, you are most welcome to join the Fit Wāhine kaupapa. Please note, the Fit Wāhine space is Unapologetically Indigenous and Unapologetically Māori. So if that is a bit of you, or you want to be in this space, Nau Mai sister!! Welcome!
