abactive is the activity consultancy specialising in
ante-natal health and fitness...
 'abactive' was founded by Anna Smith and Barbara Sowa following the birth of Anna's daughter, Bella, and her experiences of pregnancy. Anna turned to Barbara during her pregnancy for advice on how to be active while expecting.
" Even as an experienced Personal Trainer I still felt somewhat lost during my own pregnancy, you feel apprehensive when you are pregnant for the first time and reading advice in a book somehow doesn't feel real. I felt I needed advice from someone I trusted. I turned to my friend Barbara, as I knew she had experience working with Pregnant women in her own gym, and we created a tailor made exercise programme for my pregnancy. This specialised programme enabled me to stay active and healthy throughout my pregnancy. After birth I was approached by so many women asking about my pregnancy and how come I got back into shape so quickly. Barbara and I began to realise we had a passion for ante-natal exercise and activity and felt it would be great if we could share this with other mums-to-be. We were both already working within health and Fitness, Anna as a Physical Activity Advisor for the NHS and Barbara as a Fitness and aerobics Instructor, when we decided to qualify as specialist ante-natal exercise instructors.
We came up with the unique idea of our ante-natal
class 'Active Pregnancy' from my own experience of attending ante-natal classes as I felt the combination of exercising, tutoring from qualified practitioners and the exchange of information between all of us pregnant women made for a fun yet effective way of learning. We promptly set about creating a
class outline and writing our very own accompanying 'Active Pregnancy' guide (available to download at the special introductory offer of £5).
We currently provide one to one "Active
Pregnancy" class in South and West London. If you would like
more information about the class or would like to book your ante-natal
session with us please e-mail at
