Feel Strong, Supported, and in Control of Your Body Again

Specialized coaching for moms to restore their core, improve posture, and rebuild strength from the inside out.

I understand that a woman's journey to fitness is a unique and transformative experience, particularly during the beautiful phases of pregnancy and motherhood. I am here to support you every step of the way, from your prenatal preparations to postpartum recovery and beyond.

My mission is to empower women to lead healthier, stronger, and more confident lives, all while embracing the incredible changes their bodies go through during the extraordinary stages of motherhood.

I’ve Been Where You Are:

After pregnancy, everything changes.

Your body feels different.
Your core feels weak.
You might notice bloating, a “mom pooch,” or that your stomach never quite feels flat again — no matter what you try.

I’ve been there too.

Trying to work out harder… eat better… do more — but still feeling disconnected from my body.

What I didn’t realize at the time?

It wasn’t about doing more.
It was about doing things differently.

Whether you're an expecting mother looking for safe and effective prenatal workouts or a new mom seeking guidance on regaining your strength and vitality post-pregnancy, let's embrace the power of womanhood and embark on a path to vitality, strength, and confidence.

Your transformative fitness journey begins here.

Welcome to Mayra Hall's Team!

That "Mom Pooch"?
Maybe is not Stubborn Belly Fat — it can be Core Dysfunction

That lower belly that won’t go away?

In many cases, it’s not fat.

It’s a lack of deep core connection.

Pregnancy can disrupt how your core, breathing, and posture work together. And without restoring those patterns, your body compensates — leading to:

Bloated abdomen
Weak core
Poor posture
Back discomfort
That “always sticking out” belly

The good news?

This can be fixed with the right approach.

If you pee a little when you laugh… Read this.

That is not “mom life.” That is pelvic floor dysfunction.

I’m going to say something most women were never told:
Leaking after having a baby is common — but it is NOT normal.

Your body went through 9+ months of pressure, hormonal shifts, tissue stretch, and neuromuscular changes.
Then at 6 weeks postpartum, you were told: “You’re cleared.”
Cleared for what? Without an assessment? Without rehab? Without being taught how to manage pressure, reconnect your core, or restore pelvic floor coordination?

We would NEVER treat a torn ligament this way. But we do it to postpartum women every single day.
And the result?

• Leaking • Pelvic heaviness • Pain with intimacy • Core instability • Fear of impact exercise

This isn’t weakness. It’s lack of proper rehabilitation.
You deserve a strategy. You deserve education. You deserve to feel strong in your body again.

If you’re pregnant or postpartum and ready to rebuild the right way — I specialize in pelvic floor and core recovery.
Save this. Share it with a mama. And message me when you’re ready to start. 💛

No one warned us about this part of motherhood.

I expected sleepless nights.
I expected my body to change.

But I didn’t expect to feel disconnected from myself.
To question my strength.
To wonder if leaking, pain, or weakness was just something I had to accept.

So many women are left navigating postpartum in silence—
thinking they’re broken, when really they were just never supported.

Let me say this clearly:
Nothing is wrong with you.

Your body went through something massive.
Recovery isn’t automatic—and it deserves guidance, patience, and care.

You’re allowed to want to feel strong again.
You’re allowed to ask for help.
And you’re not alone in this.

Do you also feel like 2025 was SO long but then December went so fast and so overwhelmingly busy?

This year for me was so important! I had to learn to reconnect to my body, to my mind and to my soul actually. I was able to learn to set my boundaries, to let go of toxicity that I didn’t even know was there, to let go of people and to welcome new ones into my life.

I studied more, as usual I started a new course to be able to help my clients live better. Ive been dedicating more time to hobbies that I put on hold for a long time.
I’ve been able to spend more time with my kids, and I mean quality time!

In case you didn’t know, I am Brazilian, and we take the ritual and energies of NYE very seriously 😊

I know for sure I’ll start the new year with my heart full of gratitude for everything I have accomplished, for all the challenges I had to face, to teach me something in order to keep me going and evolving. I planted a lot of seeds this year so I can watch them grow in 2026. 🌱🪴

I wish you the same! May your 2026 bring you all the goodness for the seeds you planted in 2025 😊

See you then! Stronger than ever

📣 ATTENTION on what I’m about to tell you!

This is my postpartum belly! Yes, wrinkly, stretched, scarred.

And also the belly that carried a baby for 9 months and is now stronger than ever before!
I wouldn’t trade my pre baby body for my post baby body even with all the so called “imperfections”.

Raise your hands if you can relate and also think your post baby body is your best body ever! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Diastasis recti doesn’t look the same for everyone—and that’s okay.

In these photos you’ll see some of the most common patterns I assess when working with clients, and why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work.

It’s not just “a gap.” It can look like doming, coning, bulging, a soft midline… or nothing noticeable at all.

Diastasis recti is more than an aesthetic issue—it’s about pressure management, deep core function, and restoring your body’s support system.

If you want individualized support from a trainer who specializes in pre- and post-natal fitness, I’d love to guide you through your healing.

🌟 Mamas, this image always blows my mind 🤯

From a tiny pear-sized uterus to THIS massive, life-growing powerhouse in just 9 months! Your body is literally rearranging itself to make room for your baby.

But here’s the thing: all that incredible expansion puts HUGE demands on your core, pelvic floor, and posture. Without the right strength and support, it can lead to back pain, pelvic issues, or a tougher labor and recovery.

The good news?

A smart, pregnancy-safe fitness routine can:

✅ Make labor easier and often shorter
✅ Reduce tearing and complications
✅ Help your body snap back stronger postpartum
✅ Heal diastasis recti faster and safer

I’ve been exactly where you are — pregnant, postpartum, wondering if I’d ever feel strong again. Now, as a mom of 2 and pre/post-natal specialist, I help women just like you train intelligently through every trimester and beyond.

Want to feel strong, confident, and prepared instead of worried?

Drop a ❤️ or DM me for more information about my fitness programs. Let’s build the strongest version of you — for you AND your baby 👶💪

Hey mama 💕 — do you ever look in the mirror and think, “When will I feel like me again?”

I see you.
 Between diaper changes, sleepless nights, and trying to juggle it all, finding time for YOU feels impossible.
 But your strength isn’t gone — it’s just waiting to be rebuilt. 💪
After giving birth, your body goes through incredible changes: 
🌿 Your core and pelvic floor weaken 🔥 Hormones make your joints looser 💤 Energy levels drop — a LOT

That’s why you don’t need long workouts — you need smart ones. Even 10 minutes of intentional movement can start rebuilding your strength, reconnecting you with your body, and lifting your energy.

First thing my clients usually want to work on, it’s to get rid of the “mom pooch” AKA diastasis not healed.

What most of them don’t know, is that it takes time and starts with the most simple exercises to re-learn how to engage your core properly and make them stronger from the inside out.

That’s what I can teach and help you heal your diastasis to regain core strength and avoid pain and poor posture in the future. Send me a DM To find out more about my programs.

There is about 1 year between these transformation photos, from my first and second pregnancy.

On my 1st, I lost all the weight I gained during pregnancy (believe it or not, about 45lbs), and ended up losing over 50lbs. I have to admit that it happened way faster than I thought.

One the 2nd pregnancy, I gained less weight (about 35 lbs), but it was a slower process to lose all the weight. As expected! There was another child to take care of, I was much busier and didn’t have much time or energy to get back into my fitness routine. But eventually I did, and the results show.

The main reason I’m posting this, is to remind you to not compare yourself to any celebrities (that seem to lose baby weight within a week of giving birth), or your friends and family. Every woman is different, every body is different and your routine is different than everyone else’s.

It takes time, it took me about 1 year to get back on my pre pregnancy weight, some women will never get back to the same weight, and that’s OK!

Be kind to yourself and your process, it takes time to heal a body that goes through a major transformation, and let’s be honest here: we will never be the same, on the outside and specially on the inside.

🤰🏻incredible what our bodies can do!

“A 2019 study from researchers at Duke University found that ...
A Duke University-led study found that human pregnancy is the longest-lasting human endeavor with the highest energy expenditure, comparable to running a marathon every day for 40 weeks. The study showed that pregnant women operate at a high metabolic rate, consuming energy at a rate of 2.2 times their resting metabolic rate (RMR). This rate is near the sustainable human limit of 2.5 times RMR, indicating pregnancy pushes the body to its endurance limits for a prolonged period, similar to elite athletes in grueling events like the Tour de France or the Race Across the USA.”

Did you feel like running a marathon during pregnancy!

If you are a mom… this is for you🥹

Every family vacation, trip to the park or the museum, ice cream silly faces, or the smallest but very special moments, we are always behind the camera!

Not because we don’t want to be in the photo (oh trust me, we DO), but also, we want to be there watching, them… playing together, walking together, creating memories with each other. We want to enjoy every moment but we also want to make sure we capture these moments so once a year, or once a decade, we can go back to it and live it all over again.
So we end up sacrificing being in the photos to save the memories, to “re”enjoy them together again, because they will be forever saved in our ❤️.

That time of the year again! 🔥😅

I can’t tell my clients enough about the importance of staying hydrated. Most of us are so busy during the day that we simply forget to drink water.

The easiest way (to me) to remember to drink water is to carry my water bottle with me EVERYWHERE! That way I end up drinking about a gallon of water a day.

How much water have you been drinking? Do you often forget to drink enough water? #pregnancyworkout #planomoms #fitmoms #momstrong #postnatalfitness #prenatalfitness

“Motherhood is a beautiful contradiction—a constant balancing act between exhaustion and joy, chaos and calm, selflessness and deep personal growth. It demands everything: your energy, your patience, your identity—yet somehow, it gives back even more. There are days that stretch too long and nights that never end, but within those moments are quiet miracles: a smile, a hug, the sound of your child’s laugh. It’s not always graceful, and it’s rarely easy, but the love is unshakable, fierce, and unlike anything else. Motherhood breaks you open and builds you back stronger—with a heart that now beats for someone else.”

Happy Mother’s Day

🌟 Honoring C-Section Awareness Month! 🌟

Did you know that Cesarean births, or C-sections, are one of the most common surgical procedures worldwide?

✨ It’s important to recognize that while C-sections may not be part of every birth plan, they can be a crucial and life-saving intervention when needed. Every birth story, whether vaginal or via C-section, is unique and beautiful in its own way. 💖

🤱 To all the brave moms who have undergone C-sections, your strength, courage, and resilience are truly awe-inspiring. Whether it was part of your birth plan or a surprise twist, know that you are supported, cherished, and admired. Your journey is valid, your love knows no bounds, and you are celebrated this C-Section Awareness Month and every month. 🌹

PS: both my babies were born while Trolls soundtracks were playing. lol that probably means something

Oliver’s birth story!

I’ll start by saying: we are NOT in control of anything… really. I’m the kind of person that works a lot in therapy about my controlling issues, the need to be certain about everything, the need to plan things ahead, to have a plan in place for everything, which also doesn’t help with my anxiety, since most of the times, life shows me that I’m not in control as much as I think.

Oliver’s due date was February 22nd (my birthday also).
Since my labor with Theo was a complicated one, about 31 hours in labor to end up with an emergency c-section when his heart rate started to drop, I decided to have a c-section.
Yes, I was questioned about my decision, which is funny, since it’s my decision based on my previous experience, only MINE. I was told all the terrible things that can happen on a c-section, all the difficulties in recovery, and how that was not optimal for the baby. Oh boy! 🫣

So we scheduled my c-section for February 16th, at 7:30am and the countdown started! I would be 39 weeks and 1 day.

Then Monday (February 12th), I was busy! Went to the grocery store, did laundry, some work, cleaned the house a little, took Theo to the doctors appointment that was very important to decide if he needed a procedure in the arm he had a surgery after breaking his elbow (no he didn’t need it! Thank God!) and came home ready to make dinner.
And around 5pm I started to cramp. And again and again and again, they were getting stronger and I started timing it.

After about 2 hours I decided to call the doctor and she told me I should go to the hospital to check if I was dilating. Then I panicked and jumped in the shower 😭 and cried, so scared!
We packed the car, and drove to the hospital.

We got there around 8pm, I was only 1 cm dilated but the contractions were there and they were about 7 min apart, then 5, than 3… and by 10pm they decided to keep me there overnight. And I sent the boys home to sleep.

I asked for the epidural, oh the epidural! I was so scared of the epidural again, but also in so much pain. And yes, that sensation of a needle going through your spine… only who went through that can describe… continue

Baby Oliver has arrived on February 13th, beautiful, healthy and very calm! And chose to come few days earlier.

We are over the moon, specially the big brother who’s so proud!

Mom is also doing well and I’ll share my birth experience soon!

✨Remember:

your Postpartum journey is not the same as the other moms out there!

Hey Girls!
Let’s dive into a topic that’s crucial for all my wonderful mamas out there - Diastasis Recti!

Do you know to self access for diastasis?
Here’s some examples on how to do your self-assessments, but remember that consulting with a professional is always recommended and addressing it early can make a big difference in your postpartum recovery.

#diastasisrectiawareness #postpartumhealth #empoweredmama #postpartumfitness #bodyawareness #fitmoms #wellnessjourney #planomoms #womensfitness

If you know a mom who had a c-section, show her some love!

All births are special and hard in their own way, also every birth is a different experience, there’s no right or wrong, easier or harder.

Women can endure an incredible amount of pain and our resilience pays off when we see our babies face.
