At FIT4MOM, we believe in the power of community to uplift and empower each other. This month, we're focusing on a critical issue impacting countless mothers: the disparity in maternal health outcomes for Indigenous communities.

In the US alone, Indigenous women are two to three times more likely to experience complications during pregnancy and childbirth compared to white women. Globally, Indigenous women in some regions are five to six times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications.

Check out our latest post to learn more about what you can do to create a powerful force for change. Imagine a future where every mother, regardless of background, has access to the resources and support needed for a healthy pregnancy and joyful motherhood.

Shouting congratulations from the rooftops to FIT4MOM Baltimore City for celebrating an incredible 20 years of Strength in Motherhood 🥰

FIT4MOM, formerly known as Stroller Strides, Celebrates 20 Years in Baltimore!!

Shortly after its inception in San Diego in 2001, Stroller Strides became a franchised business. This social fitness community for moms landed in Baltimore in February 2004 thanks to Amy Fallavena. Amy initially operated within Baltimore City and Baltimore County. As time went on, the local business changed hands and came to operate as two separate locations. Eventually, as more fitness programs were offered beyond Stroller Strides, the nationwide franchise changed its name to FIT4MOM. Learn more about the history of the FIT4MOM Baltimore City location through the words of a few of the amazing women we have to thank for making the magic happen over the last 20 years at https://baltimorecity.fit4mom.com/celebrating-20-years-in-business.

If you've experienced strength in motherhood with FIT4MOM (by any name) in Baltimore City, we'd love to hear your story! Please share in the comments!!

Have you tried a class yet? Our franchisees and instructors are always learning and growing—make sure you give them your reviews and testimonials! 🩷

As we celebrate Black History Month, it is paramount that we shine a spotlight on the critical issue of maternal wellness discrepancies affecting black women. While we commemorate the achievements and resilience of the Black community, it is equally essential to address the stark realities that persist within maternal healthcare. Black women face alarming disparities in maternal health outcomes, with higher rates of severe maternal morbidity and mortality. Understanding and acknowledging these discrepancies is not only a matter of health equity but also an act of empowerment.

This Black History Month, let us embark on a journey of awareness, advocacy, and support, ensuring that every woman, regardless of race, receives the care and attention she deserves during the transformative journey of motherhood.
