Today's workshop was incredible for me both as an athlete and gym owner. I own a women's only gym and love to have these conversations with my members. I think we need to have more of these available throughout the industry.

Aby is an amazing teacher and I love what Hatch Athletic stands for. I can't wait for the next workshop!

Workshop topics

Three topics.
All the things nobody taught you.

Each workshop stands alone. Come to one. Come to all three. Either way you'll leave knowing more than when you walked in.

01

The Core and Diastasis

What diastasis actually is, why there's so much fear around it, and why most of that fear is misplaced. How to train the core through pregnancy and postpartum and what to actually pay attention to.

02

Lifting

The truth about lifting heavy through pregnancy and postpartum. Bracing, belts, breath and barbell. Unfiltered and evidence-based. What you can do, what to watch for, and how to make good decisions on the gym floor.

03

Leaking and Impact

Leaking during exercise is common. It is not normal. What is actually happening, how to manage it on the gym floor, and how to support women who are struggling with it but haven't said anything.

Aby Tobin, Pelvic Health Physio and Clinical Lead at Hatch

Led by

Aby Tobin.

Pelvic Health Physio & Clinical Lead at Hatch

Aby is a specialist Pelvic Health Physio and Clinical Lead for Hatch Athletic and HATCH COACH. She's on a mission to bring Sports Medicine and Pelvic Health together.

She started her physiotherapy career over 11 years ago focusing on Sports Medicine, having been a track and field athlete competing at national level — working with athletes across a wide range of sports from recreational to elite, with her passion being the exercise rehabilitation aspect of care.

Aby's been teaching perinatal exercise rehabilitation to health and exercise professionals for the last 5 years, and works with patients all over the world who want her unique approach to navigating pregnancy and postpartum.

When she's not at her desk reading research or in clinic with a patient, you'll find her at the gym trying to become a CrossFitter, or at the park with her two energetic boys.

Good to know

Your questions.

Where are the workshops held?

Each workshop is held at a different gym across the UK. Our upcoming dates are:

3 October — The Farm, Elstree, Hertfordshire

22 November — CrossFit® Devizes, Wiltshire

Full venue details are always shared on this page ahead of booking, so you'll know exactly where you're heading before you commit.

What time do the workshops run?

All workshops run from 1.30 to 4.00pm. Doors open from 1.15pm so feel free to arrive a little early and get settled.

What do I need to bring?

Just yourself, some water, and a notebook if you like to scribble. Wear comfortable training kit. Aby will share any pre-reading or prep ahead of the day.

Are tickets refundable?

Tickets are non-refundable. If you can't make it, you're welcome to transfer your ticket to a colleague. Just drop us a message to let us know who's coming in your place.

Does this certify me to work with pregnant or postpartum women?

No. Hatch Academy is a CPD-style learning experience, not a certification. It's perfect as a taster, top-up or supplement to your existing qualifications. If you want to specialise properly, that's HATCH COACH.

Is this a good intro to HATCH COACH?

Yes. Workshops are a great way to spend time with Aby, get a feel for her teaching style, and see what working with the Hatch approach is like before committing to the full certification.

Who is this for?

Anyone who wants to do better by the women in their gym. Coaches, PTs, physios, clinicians, and the women themselves who train and want to learn. You don't need to be a specialist or be HATCH COACH certified to attend.

I'm a physio — can I come?

Yes, absolutely. Hatch Academy Workshops are designed for physios, PTs, fitness coaches, clinicians and anyone who works with women. Whether you want to build out your perinatal knowledge as a physio, or you're a coach who wants to better support female clients, you're in the right room.

Will Workshops be recorded?

Hatch Academy is in-person by design. The hands-on, in-the-room format is what makes it work. That said, recordings are something we're working on, so keep your eyes peeled.
