Finding time to exercise becomes more complicated when every plan also has to account for a baby or young child. Stroller Fitness creates a practical way for parents to move without separating the workout from family life.
ME Life offers coached outdoor Stroller Fitness in Marina del Rey and Santa Monica. The adult gets the workout, the child stays nearby and the group understands that real parent life comes with you.
The quick answer
ME Life Stroller Fitness is an outdoor parent-and-me class for adults with babies or young children nearby. The current schedule includes a 45-minute Saturday class at Aubrey E. Austin Jr. Park in Marina del Rey and a 50-minute Friday class at 600 Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica.
Your first eligible group class is complimentary. A single in-person class is currently $41 after the introductory class. Availability and meeting details are confirmed through the booking calendar.
Your child stays part of the experience
Stroller Fitness is a parent-and-me class. Babies and young children stay close while the adults take part in a coached outdoor workout.
It is not a childcare service, and it is not a medical rehabilitation program. It is a fitness class designed around the reality that parents often need movement, community and flexibility in the same place.
The stroller makes it possible for your child to remain part of the outing. It does not mean every child will be quiet or every class will unfold exactly as planned. You will be around other adults who understand that feeding, soothing and attention are part of this season.
The workout is still yours
The presence of strollers and children does not make the class an afterthought. ME Life coaches guide the session and help participants work at an appropriate level.
The class is for the adult participant. Expect purposeful movement and active coaching rather than a stroller walk presented as a workout. The exact session can change, so the current booking details—not an old social post—are the best source for class preparation.
As with any group class, your experience and current needs matter. If you are returning to exercise after giving birth, recovering from an injury or managing a health condition, follow the guidance of your qualified healthcare professional before participating.
What happens before your first class?
Start with the first free class request. ME Life can help you choose Marina del Rey or Santa Monica and confirm the current meeting details.
Before leaving home:
- Read the reservation confirmation.
- Check the day’s outdoor conditions.
- Bring whatever equipment and supplies ME Life confirms for that session.
- Pack the ordinary items your child may need during the class.
- Allow enough time to reach the meeting point without turning arrival into another stressful task.
Equipment requirements and weather procedures can change. Confirm them directly rather than relying on an old third-party listing.
Marina del Rey or Santa Monica?
The two classes share the same parent-and-me idea but fit different schedules and locations.
Marina del Rey
The current Marina del Rey class meets Saturday at 8:00 AM at Aubrey E. Austin Jr. Park and lasts 45 minutes. The park sits beside the Marina’s main channel. Your reservation provides the precise meeting details because the park is a class venue, not ME Life’s business address.
Santa Monica
The current Santa Monica class meets Friday at 9:10 AM at 600 Ocean Avenue and lasts 50 minutes. Confirm availability in the live calendar before planning around a specific date.

Community makes showing up easier
Stroller Fitness brings together people navigating similar scheduling challenges. You do not need to explain why plans change or why a child needs your attention. That shared understanding can make the class feel easier to return to week after week.
Community does not replace coaching, and coaching does not require a perfectly predictable morning. The value is having both in one place: a workout with direction and a group where the realities of parenthood are already visible.
Choose Marina del Rey or Santa Monica
ME Life currently offers Stroller Fitness at two locations:
- Friday at 9:10 AM at 600 Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica.

Frequently asked questions
Is Stroller Fitness a class for the parent or the child?
The adult participates in the coached workout while the baby or young child stays nearby. It is a parent-and-me fitness format, not a children’s exercise class.
Is childcare included?
No. Stroller Fitness is not a childcare service. The parent remains responsible for the child throughout the class.
Do I need a particular stroller or equipment?
ME Life should confirm the current equipment and stroller requirements for the session you choose. Do not assume details from an older listing still apply.
Can I join if I am new to exercise?
No specific starting level is required for asking whether the class fits you. The coach can help adapt exercises within the group format. Medical clearance and individualized clinical guidance must come from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
What if I want one-to-one support instead?
In-home personal training is the better ME Life path when you want the session centered entirely on your goals, movement and schedule.
