Our Story

A busy life is a happy life! Honestly, with kids, friends, work and a packed schedule, it's quite challenging. Our mission is to help as many (future) mothers as possible build a strong, energetic foundation through our network of positive women. When you're physically and mentally well, it's easier to make the right choices, work on personal ambitions and enjoy your family.

Our Mission

"WE TOUCH WOMEN'S LIVES AROUND THE WORLD, INSPIRE THEM TO BE FIT AND HEALTHY, TO BE AT THEIR BEST. WE BELIEVE IN A POSITIVE AND PERSONAL APPROACH. WE WILL DO THE BEST WE CAN. ALWAYS."

Where It Started

Meet our founder: Esther van Diepen. Mother of four, successful entrepreneur and passionate athlete. While living in New York with her family, she discovered the culture of sports-minded (soon-to-be) mothers exercising in city parks. This inspired the idea for Mom in Balance! Working with experts, she developed our unique sports program. In 2008, she returned to the Netherlands to launch it here… and the rest is history.

Mom in Balance

We offer outdoor training for pregnant women, postpartum recovery workouts and total body fitness for women. Our sessions build strength and improve fitness while boosting energy and positive mindset. Research shows exercise benefits far beyond the physical—enhancing social connections, confidence, focus and empathy. Essential for motherhood! Through sport, you can handle more and maintain balance.

With over 15 years experience, our trainers operate in most Dutch parks and abroad. Visiting? Join a session at another location!
