Absolutely! Our parent and baby classes are for mums, and feeding — whether breastfeeding or bottle-feeding — is always welcome, whenever your baby needs it. If your little one is a bit older, feel free to bring snacks along to keep them entertained too. Cyclopark is proud to be a recognised breastfeeding-friendly venue in Kent, so you can feed comfortably and confidently, no matter which class you’re attending.

It really doesn’t matter where you’re starting from! Whether you’re brand new to fitness classes or were a regular gym-goer before your baby arrived, our postnatal fitness classes in Gravesend are designed for every fitness level. Our qualified instructors are there to guide and adapt the session for you every step of the way — this is about rebuilding strength and getting active with your baby, not hitting a fitness benchmark. Many of our mums tell us it’s the support and community that keeps them coming back, as much as the workout itself.

Yes, once you’ve been signed off by your doctor to return to exercise! Regardless of how you gave birth — whether vaginally or by C-section — you’ll need to complete your six-week postnatal check before joining any of our parent and baby fitness sessions at Cyclopark. This ensures you’ve recovered enough to exercise safely, and our instructors are always happy to talk through any concerns before your first class.

While the vast majority of attendees at our Gravesend parent and baby classes are mums, dads and grandparents are more than welcome too — whether that’s a dad coming along with his partner, a dad attending solo with his baby, or a grandparent looking after the little one for the day. There’s no age limit for grandparents wanting to join in!

One thing to note: only booked participants can join the fitness studio itself for safety reasons, but non-participating family members are welcome to relax in our on-site Park Eat café at Cyclopark while class is underway.

Our parent and baby classes welcome little ones aged six months to four years old. They just need to be happy sitting quietly to the side while parents exercise — bringing along a favourite toy, book, or game is a great way to keep them settled and entertained throughout the session. 

All class equipment — kettlebells, mats, weights and more — is provided, so there’s no need to buy anything specially. Just bring a water bottle for yourself, and if you’d prefer to use your own mat for floor-based exercises, you’re welcome to bring that along too.

Don’t forget any toys, books, or snacks to help keep your little one happy and settled during the session.

Parking is free for Park Fitness and Park Activate members. Park Fitness members also get parent and baby classes fully included in their membership, while Park Activate members receive 50% off class prices.

If you’re not a member, on-site parking at our Gravesend, Kent venue is available for £1.90, covering up to four hours — plenty of time for your class and a coffee in the café afterwards.

Of course! Every Parent and Baby class at Cyclopark is full of parents who completely understand — there’s no judgement here, ever. If your baby needs you, simply step away and comfort them for as long as needed. This is real fitness for real parents, and everyone in the room gets it.
