Testimonials
“Women in Motion workouts are the best! I cannot them recommend enough. Jacqueline and Katrien are amazing trainers and they take time to get to know you. They know exactly where you are at and challenge you accordingly. I’ve started training with them post partum when my body needed to recover and they took the best care of me building strenght in me and get me back in shape. Then I was ready to transition to HIIT workout which I absolutely love. It is a great community of women and it is great to be part of it. Since the lockdown we are training online and it is what is keeping me sane and fit! Thank you Women in Motion!”

“Being pregnant in a world with so much uncertainty can be overwhelming, but I truly look forward to the 3 live workouts each week to focus on my health and am so grateful for the positive energy amongst pregnant mums in the same boat.”

Pregnant
“I have been training with Jacqueline during my whole pregnancy. Now that my baby is 4 months old and I’m at home with one toddler and one baby Women in Motion workouts are one of my highlights of the lockdown and really my only me time. I love these workouts. Jacqueline and Katrien are great motivators, emphatic and positive. I loved exercising in the park but I was also impressed when I saw that these ladies are fantastic even on the screen. Higly recommended 🙂 🌈”

Frequently asked questions

Definitely! Gynaecologists and midwifes recommend women to be active during pregnancy at least 3 times a week. Working out with Women in Motion (WIM) is safe and the exercises and workouts are designed for your changing body! Pregnant workouts at WIM help you to stay & feel fit during pregnancy.

HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. Expect a fun and challenging combination of strength & cardio exercises! Perfect for every woman who wants to stay or get fit and train the whole body during a Women in Motion HIIT workout.

All women & fitness levels are welcome to join! At Women in Motion we work with small groups and we adjust workouts to everyone’s needs.
5. What makes Women in Motion different from other workout programs?
We believe in strong women. We believe in YOU! Strong does not simply mean building muscles or being able to do 50 burpees. Maybe for some of us, but definitely not all women and that’s fine! However we do believe that we feel better when you workout and get active! All at your own level! When working out endorphins are released. These endorphins are molecules released by our brain. They are responsible for creating a feeling of well-being. That “happy feeling”. At Women in Motion we love to workout with you and increase the release of endorphins! Enjoy being you! You are worth it!
6. Do you offer Personal Training?

5. What is a Postnatal workout?
The first 6 weeks after giving birth are very precious and special weeks. After nine months you finally get to meet your little one(s).
But apart from it being very special it is also a very intensive period and it can be very tough. Your little one is new to this World, you are getting to know each other, while on the other hand your body is recovering. There’s hormones, new experiences and your life changes completely. It may well feel a little overwhelming.
At Women in Motion we understand this and we know what it feels like to give birth and to have a baby. Our Postnatal workout, focusses on getting recovering, feeling good and getting back in shape in a responsible way. Expect an adjusted & fun total body workout with a combination of strength & cardio!
