The Bloom Method Arvostelua 198

I received a yearlong membership as a gift from my husband, and they autocharged him for another year without any sort of reminder or notice. When I learned of the charge, I promptly canceled the membership and requested a refund. Customer service was extremely slow and unhelpful. The agent refused a refund of any amount and essentially said they could technically get away with not giving any notice because I had unsubscribed from their email list. It's true, I unsubscribed from their barrage of marketing emails, but I would have still expected to receive important account updates like an upcoming charge for hundreds of dollars. 

The workout themselves are only OK. I found plenty of better resources for free on YouTube during my pregnancy. The instructor pauses constantly to talk, which is frustrating if you want to do the workouts more than once and don't need to relisten to the lectures. Overall not worth the price in my opinion.

One of the reasons that I subscribed was to try to get a workout plan and calendar. Bloom claims to offer this, but their website link is broken, and I have reached out to customer service twice without any response. If you are comfortable coming up with your own workout plan, then great, but if you want a plan and a calendar, I would not recommend this service.

There is an incredible amount of understanding of the body and mind as it pertains to all stages of motherhood in this program. I have loved it since day one when I did an express workout with my sister. I've gotten so much more than just physical fitness from the amazing people at the Bloom Method. I was prepared for the birth of my second son by the small cues throughout the workouts. I highly highly highly recommend!

I originally signed up for the trial after a few other online training courses didn’t work out as well for my wife. The Bloom Method changed my wife’s entire mindset with her physical fitness and our baby girls overall health pre and post birth.

At the end of the day, The Bloom Method offers a lot more education and guidance for expecting mothers (and fathers) than anything else we’d come across. The bonus is that they have a community of mothers and my wife felt like she was amongst friends every time she engaged with the workouts and or community efforts.

We’ve recommended the program to a lot of friends and when we have a second baby, we know exactly where to turn.

Don't subscribe. As others have written, there's an issue with Bloom's email system, which does not notify of auto-renewal & will charge you without notice. I was unable to log into my account for months due to a technical issue & have now been charged for a second year of a service I don't use without my consent.

For a platform with a bad user experience that's difficult to navigate, it's simply not worth it. Even when you're not being charged hundreds of dollars without consent

Great online exercise platform. What I enjoy most is the ease of use, how great I feel after doing the exercises and that it is in line with the preparation for birth.

I actually really loved the Bloom method for my prenatal and postpartum core and pelvic floor strength. The classes really did help and I hate to have to write such a bad review after the fact. Unfortunately, I was automatically subscribed to an additional year of the program, $240, which at this time, 9 months postpartum, I do not need. (Because thanks to Bloom I'm back to my regular exercise!) I knew that I needed to cancel and actively tried to log on to my account to do so but my username and password were inactivated so I assumed that my year had run out and my subscription was canceled. Unfortunately this was not the case. When I explained what happened I was told I could not get a refund. What a disappointment after really enjoying the program.

I absolutely love the Bloom Method!! This is my second time signing up with a new pregnancy. I truly believe that the main reason I had a quick and easy birth was because of my workouts with the Bloom Method. The breathing techniques with help you strengthen your pelvic floor and we aware of the muscles used in birth. You will feel great about your body, send great endorphins to baby and feel secure that all the movements you’re doing are safe and appropriate for you and baby. I found the exercises to be a perfect blend to motivate me to complete them, so not too hard, but also challenging enough that I felt I was keeping my body in great shape. I also feel that the Bloom Method helped allow a smooth and easy recovery after baby and my body felt so strong even after pregnancy. I cannot recommend it enough!!!

The app is great so far. The videos are clear and the quality of the exercises and instruction is great. I like that there are many different types of classes to chose from. I wish the app has some of the functionality of the desktop version, such as showing what has already been watched and changing playback speed. Overall, happy with StudioBloom and would recommend to other pre-natal/post-partum moms.

I am new to the bloom method but I don’t think I have ever found a program that truly teaches the pelvic floor like these ladies. I feel much more in tune to my body and am so happy to have found this early in my pregnancy.

I have been using studio Bloom for about 2 months and currently 20 weeks pregnant. I love the wide variety and the clear instruction and motivation in the videos. The app is organized very well, everything is easy to find and I love the "prenatal workout of the day" feature. I trialled several different workout programs and this was a clear winner in my book! The price is a bit steep compared to others but for me it was worth it, this is my fourth baby and I've already noticed a big difference in this pregnancy due to the exercises.

I absolutely LOVE this app! I have tried several other pre+post natal apps and Studio Bloom is by far superior. The class options are endless- I never get bored. The coaches are fun, motivating and true experts in the field. The breathing techniques alone are worth the investment. Thank you, Studio Bloom— This mama feels strong and supported because of you!

It is incredibly glitchy and a waste of money. What’s worse is that when you can waste so much money they take it further and they then waste your time. Dealing with the customer service team has been incredibly painful. As a ‘team of Mamas’ they are completely unempathetic to other mothers, incompetent and have difficulty understanding basic things (have dealt with Jaclyn and also Kristen).
Please save your money, time and sanity and DO NOT PURCHASE THIS APP. There are so many other great options out there so don’t even give this a go.

I liked the foundational videos on diaphragmatic breathing and belly pumping. It was very hard to transition to using those techniques in regular workouts and I couldn't find good transitional workouts.. I don't like a lot of extra motivational talking and music in videos cause it makes it confusing to focus on instructions. I found it hard to decide which videos were appropriate to start with

This is great for expecting mums! The workouts are really great but also educational. If you want to prepare for a happy healthy birth, the Bloom Method is for you!

After a 7 day trial, I have maintained my subscription as the core and breathing videos are very well explained and helped me a lot.
The rest of the website is a bit hard to use in order to select the right class for my mood and time available though and I would love more program options (mood based or trimester based for example)

I've been using The Bloom Method for the past three weeks and love it! The routines are challenging enough to leave me feeling worked but quick enough so that I can get on with my day. The teachers are lots of fun and the workouts are varied enough that I haven't gotten bored. I would highly recommend this to all pre and post natal mamas.

I learned more about my deep inner core muscles in the first twenty minutes of this than I have in my entire life. And I’m a certified personal trainer! I feel more connected to my core in a way I never have before and I know I will carry this training with me into the rest of my fitness, for life. It’s life changing. Truly

This core methodology, for females, should become the industry’s standard.

As a certified Postpartum Doula, I discovered The Bloom Method as a resource for my clients. I know how vital it is to have a program that is specifically designed for the mama (or mama-to-be) to ensure she trains, moves, and heals in a way that's not only safe but designed for the everyday (functional) movements she has to do while pregnant and postpartum. For example: sitting up in bed, reaching for a drink, picking up baby, or carrying the carseat.

I am now postpartum with my second daughter and loving the Bloom Method on a personal level. I feel confident knowing I'm doing the best thing for my body by focusing on strengthening my core and pelvic floor thanks to the Bloom Method. I don't have to guess or worry about jumping back into exercise. The Bloom Method is helping me take it slow and start exercise again safely!

Love the Bloom Method! Great pregnancy safe workouts that don’t take too much time but have results. Need more express workouts those are my favourite :)
