Morris Hospital Adds Prenatal Exercise Class
October 2, 2025, MORRIS, IL – Morris Hospital is offering a new Prenatal Exercise Class on Wednesdays from 4-4:45 p.m. at the Morris Hospital YMCA, 2200 W. Dupont Ave., Morris. The class is free and does not require YMCA membership to participate.
According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, regular exercise during pregnancy benefits both mom and baby by reducing back pain, easing constipation, promoting healthy weight gain during pregnancy, strengthening heart and blood vessels, and decreasing the risk of gestational diabetes, preeclampsia and cesearan delivery. The Prenatal Exercise Class at the Y is taught by a certified pre and postnatal coach from Morris Hospital.
Interested participants should sign up at the YMCA front desk up to 90 minutes prior to the start of the class. Class size is limited to the first 20 participants.
For more information, contact Morris Hospital Wellness Manager Becca Evola at 815-705-7358.
