The First Class Guide
Everything you need to know before your first FIT4MOM workout!
We're SO glad you're here! 🩷
Whether you're brand new to fitness, getting back into a routine, or looking for a new way to challenge yourself, we're so excited to welcome you to FIT4MOM Frankfort + Lemont!
We know trying something new can feel a little intimidating, especially when you're walking into a room full of people you haven't met yet. But we promise, you don't have to have it all figured out before you get here.
We're here to help you feel comfortable, confident, and ready to get moving!
A great workout. A whole lot of community. And a little time for YOU!
That's what we're all about.
What to Expect at Your First Class
💪 A workout that meets you where you are.
Our classes are designed to challenge you while giving you options that work for YOUR body, fitness level, and season of motherhood.
You'll get a thoughtfully planned workout led by a certified instructor who will help you feel confident, offer modifications, and encourage you along the way.
Whether you're easing back into exercise or ready to push yourself, we've got you!
A warm welcome from our village.
You don't need to know anyone before you arrive!
Your instructor will help you get settled, introduce you to other moms, and make sure you know what to expect.
We know what it feels like to be the new mom, and we want you to feel like you belong from the moment you arrive.
A little flexibility for real mom life.
Running late? Baby needs to eat? Toddler having a moment?
We've been there!
We know motherhood doesn't always go according to plan, and that's okay. Come as you are, do what you can, and know that you're always welcome here.

A little tip: If you arrive and aren't sure where to go, please reach out! We'd much rather help you find us than have you miss your workout.
What if I'm pregnant or recently postpartum?
You're in the right place! 🩷
ALL of our classes are designed with pregnant and postpartum moms in mind! Every FIT4MOM instructor is certified in pre- and postnatal fitness and trained to offer options to help you work out safely and confidently through every stage of motherhood.
Just be sure you've been cleared for exercise by your healthcare provider when appropriate, and let your instructor know you're pregnant or postpartum so we can help you find the best options for you!
What if I'm not in shape?
Then you're in the right place!
You don't need to get in shape before coming to FIT4MOM. Our instructors provide options to help you find the right challenge for YOU.
Whether it's your first workout in a long time or you're already exercising regularly, we'll meet you where you are.
What if I don't know anyone?
That's okay! Most of us didn't know anyone when we started either.
Your instructor will welcome you, introduce you to other moms, and help you feel right at home.
You may walk in not knowing anyone, but we hope you'll leave feeling like you've found your people.
What if my baby cries or my toddler won't cooperate?
Welcome to mom life! 😉
Seriously, don't worry about it.
Our stroller-friendly classes are designed with moms and little ones in mind. It's completely okay to pause, tend to your child, and jump back in when you're ready.
No apologies necessary!
What if I'm running late?
Come anyway!
We know getting out the door isn't always easy, especially with little ones. We'd rather have you join us a few minutes late than miss your workout altogether.
Do I need a jogging stroller?
Nope! A regular stroller is just fine for our stroller-friendly classes.
Do I have to bring my kids?
Nope!
We offer both stroller-friendly and mom-only classes.
You can absolutely attend a stroller-friendly workout without bringing your little one, too.
