Stroller Strides combines exercise and motherhood

Kristina Millar, a mother and the Conejo Valley's official provider of Stroller Strides, is featured in the June issue of Parents Magazine. The article is about Millar's experience as a personal trainer and how Stroller Strides helped her to combine her roles as mother and exercise instructor.

"We keep the Stroller Strides classes fun for the little ones by incorporating songs and bubbles and even a parachute with the exercises," said Millar. "I'm not just making sure each mom is using the correct muscles for functional strength, but trying to make sure the babies are having a good time while watching."

Stroller Strides in the Conejo Valley is offering a "Special-ty" class this month for mothers to feel special. After the hour-long Stroller Strides workout, masseuses will provide complementary massages for the mothers. Other pampering will include hand scrubs, flowers, a raffle and light snacks. The class will meet at 9:30 a.m. Wed., May 24 at Oak Canyon Community Park, 5600 Hollytree in Oak Park.

Millar owns and operates Team Millar, which provides Stroller Strides, a full-body workout for moms with children in stroller. The family-friendly business has been in the Conejo Valley for almost two years. Each 60-minute workout is taught by nationally-certified instructors who are all mothers themselves.

Millar is an ACE certified personal trainer, certified Pilates instructor and is also certified in preand post-natal fitness through Fit To Deliver and Stroller Strides.
