let ME introduce myself...
Hi, I’m Elyse Sparkes
I'm a Certified Personal Trainer and Core and Pelvic Floor Movement Rehabilitation Specialist.
TMI ahead:
I've experienced leak pee, what's called stress incontinence, for years - long before I gave birth.
(It's common to think that only people who have given birth experience leak pee - not true!)
I laughed it off as "a thing that happens to women in my family". (Turns out that is also not true!) 🤷🏻♀️
After I gave birth, I learned a lot more about the pelvic floor.
Pelvic floor information seems to be reserved for pregnant and postpartum folks, but understanding pelvic floor function is helpful for EVERYONE.
I have studied with some of the leading professionals in this field (including Restore Your Core® creator Lauren Ohayon and Franklin Method® creator Eric Franklin, as well as a course with Pelvic Floor OT Lindsay Vestal)... and now I'd like to help you!
What people say about working with Elyse!
I’ve done some work in the pelvic floor region before… [but] the way you’ve been explaining it has made so much more sense than anything I’ve done before!
a happy participant!

Now that I have completed the program I am soooo much more aware of parts in my body. And how I can improve myself. I feel better about my body. To be patient with my body. Not running to the bathroom. Way more aware of my pelvic area.

I can do your workouts anywhere, no matter what happens... It feels really, really good. I really appreciate your whole program - the permission to modify, the forgiving yourself (and normalizing it!), and your own experiences. I'm not used to that - so many coaches demanding 110% at all times! It's great to take a deep breath and keep going.
