Training courses for professionals

The Hypopressive Training System technique changes the paradigm and way we view core and pelvic floor health that combines a unique breathing technique with poses that connect the entire body as one system.

Though practiced worldwide, it is only now beginning to be recognised in the U.K. for its wide range of benefits versus traditional Core and Pelvic Floor fitness, rehabilitation and maintenance programmes.

While initially developed as a non-surgical treatment for women with pelvic floor dysfunction, The Hypopressive Technique has been found to have benefits as a complete core training programme that has benefits across all age, fitness levels and lifestyles `
