I really feel like Caila’s program has given me more freedom in my pregnancy— knowing what I should be doing when is so important and is just one less thing to thinn about. Whatever ailments I have that week, Caila is there to address them! Working with Caila truly makes the overall experience of pregnancy more enjoyable.

I've worked with Caila for both of my pregnancies, and I cannot recommend her to anyone about to begin their prenatal or postpartum journeys enough!I was incredibly intimidated by pregnancy and labor with my first child, and Caila provided the expertise, reassurance, and support I needed to approach my delivery with confidence. (So much so that I knew I would need her again with my second!) I give her so much credit for the success of both of my deliveries and am incredibly grateful to her and Balance Zen.Thank you Caila!

Caila is an absolutely amazing person to work with! She was supportive, knowledgeable and compassionate throughout my pregnancy. She helped me face my fears of delivering my baby girl and helped me build the strength my body needed to go through labor and delivery as well as giving me the tools to mentally prepare for the process. When I went into labor, I had the confidence that I could handle the pain and strain on my body and the breathing techniques to get me through. Caila is an amazing partner to work with through pregnancy and I couldn’t imagine what my delivery experience would’ve been like if I didn’t work with her.

Caila was an instrumental team member through my pregnancy and postpartum journey. I was VERY scared of giving birth and her coaching prepped me both physically and mentally. I was able to keep up with my normal fitness routine throughout pregnancy and she helped to modify as range of motion limited. My OB noted how impressed she was with the control of my core and breathing during delivery. Postpartum Caila was there helping me to reconnect with my body and making small mindful shifts in my new routine.

I came to Caila postpartum after my first left me with tearing, DR and some pelvic/SI joint pain. She meticulously supported my postpartum journey. Always offering adjustments to my personal plan and modifying intensity of movements over time. My goal was to return to running and I did just that in 4-5 months! When it came time for baby #2, I immediately reached out to Caila in my 2T when pelvic pain was getting to the best of me. We focused on strength and stretch to help my body endure pregnancy and prepare for birth. I felt so strong going into labor and recovery was even faster the second go around. I cannot recommend Caila enough.

I cannot recommend Caila enough! This was my second pregnancy and I felt so much stronger and more prepared going into labor. My plan was custom to how I was feeling at each stage of my pregnancy and she truly exceeded all my goals. I never felt stronger! I would highly recommend her!

I can’t recommend Caila enough! She helped to guide me through my pregnancy and delivery and I am so incredibly thankful for her. My midwives in the hospital commented several times on how prepared I was for labor- pushing in particular. So grateful for Caila and for the birth experience she helped me to have.

Highly recommend Caila! I knew I wanted to be as strong as I could be during pregnancy and wanted customized support. I went in very focused on the physical given past injuries but the emotional practice and support was just as needed. Between the fear of googling everything during pregnancy, the overwhelming information on social media and the doctor response of “that’s normal” to any pain or discomfort, Caila was a great and trusted resource. I would recommend for anyone who is pregnant.

2023-08-04T17:13:26.748Z

I worked with Caila my entire pregnancy and I cannot recommend her enough! Not only was my entire pregnancy smooth but delivery and postpartum was so much better because of working with her.

Caila is kind, encouraging and very knowledgable. Working with her made a huge impact on my postpartum period. She crafted a program to meet me where I was (10 weeks PP), while keeping my end goals in mind. I am amazed at how strong I feel and how far I've come in the few months we've been working together. I have more bodily awareness and confidence in my training routine now than I ever have before. Thanks Caila :)

I worked with Caila throughout my entire pregnancy and I can confidently say I would not have had such a successful labor and delivery without her program. She worked with me from the beginning of my pregnancy through postpartum to ensure I felt strong both physically and mentally. Going into labor I felt as prepared as possible thanks to Caila. I truly cannot thank her enough!

2021-12-08T17:14:29.389Z

Couldn't have had a better experience with Caila. She's sweet, down to earth, and knows how to balance being both motivating and understanding that the work is tough. I would recommend working with her to anyone who is pre or post baby!

2021-12-03T21:28:16.283Z

I worked with Caila during my entire pregnancy journey. I started with her program at 6 weeks and continued into her postpartum program. I believe that my body and mind were as prepared as possible for birth, and I have never felt more confident in myself after as a result. In the Postpartum time, I believe I was able to handle the demands and lack of sleep because I felt my strongest. She is knowledgeable, patient and incredibly supportive. Thank you so much Caila!

2021-11-16T02:52:07.394Z

I was so thankful to have Caila during and after my pregnancy. She worked with me to develop goals for my pregnancy and gently encouraged and supported me through them. I truly believe that it was because of her that I had little to no discomfort during my pregnancy, a shorter labor, and a steady recovery postpartum. I would 100% work with her again should the opportunity arise.

2021-11-10T23:22:53.917Z

I could not have gotten through my pregnancy without Caila. Her encouragement, support, and coaching technique helped me to have a healthy pregnancy. She answered absolutely every question I had along the way and worked with me on exercises and techniques that made me strong for both delivery and after. I was especially thankful to have her in the fourth trimester - she was so encouraging and kind - something we all need postpartum! Don’t hesitate to work with Caila. She is the absolute best.

I met Caila right after having my first son. Before getting pregnant, I had worked out 5-6x/week but my activity fell off when I was pregnant. I was anxious to get back to activity, but was nervous that I wouldn’t be able to do it with my son. Caila and I started working together two weeks after I delivered for some post partum exercises and my son was welcomed in every class! If my son needed attention, Caila found a way to integrate him into the exercises, which is so incredible! It helped me focus on getting my strength back, while still being with my son. Caila is detailed in her exercise direction and focused on tailoring individual programs/needs. I am so grateful that I was able to work with Caila to get a jump start on post partum recovery and get back into a workout routine!

"Caila is a trained professional with the most calming demeanor. Her approach to 1:1's was mindful, calculated and interactive. Caila listens and forms a tailored approach to your own body - which makes the time together both productive and enjoyable. I would HIGHLY recommend Caila for anyone looking for knowledge on specific issues they might be having both pre/post birth- and even someone just looking to better their own knowledge of how best to stay in touch with how to take care of their body during their journey. The tips and "homework" she has tailored for my body are ones that I will practice for years to come. Her work has been a complete game changer for my own body awareness and how best to support my postpartum journey."

Caila’s classes are amazing and perfect for anyone wherever you are in your fitness journey. I think the things I like most about the way Caila teaches is that not only do I get a great workout but because of how she teaches I understand my body and how it works when exercising so much more than I ever did, I know why I am doing each exercise and what it is targeting, how I can make it work for me AND most importantly how to Incorporate core breathing! The core breathing is a big part of Caila’s classes and it has been a real game changer for me, it’s something that becomes an invaluable part of her class and also becomes a staple part of any exercise you go on to do! Also Caila is just fab and her classes are a joy! Would HIGHLY recommend!

Working with Caila was a game changer! I tried to manage my pregnancy back pain with exercise and physical therapy with mediocre results. Ever since I started working with Caila my pain level is minimal. She modified my exercise and showed proper breathing techniques to protect my back and strength my core. I would recommend her not only to pregnant women but also to anyone struggling with back issues. And an add on... she’s fun to work with.

Caila has been a great help pre and post labor with helping me understand and work through preparing for birth and afterwards, learning how to ease back in without causing any potential damage. She focuses a lot on connecting breath and has been wonderful about finding little ways to incorporate my newborn into the workouts so that I’m not worried about finding a sitter!

2020-01-30T13:11:18.000Z

Caila is very professional and knowledgeable in the areas of prenatal and postnatal exercise. She came to my apartment and worked with me and even allowed my 6 month old to join (no need for a babysitter, yay, convenience). Caila was warm and encouraging and taught me how to connect my breath with my exercises and how to safely incorporate my son into simple workouts that can be done at home. I would highly recommend Caila to help you regain your strength and confidence post baby.
