Why Pre and Postnatal Yoga?

~ Celebrate     
keep strong and toned ~

Our pre and postnatal yoga programs are designed to celebrate your transition into motherhood. The beauty of yoga, which is different from other kinds of “exercise”, is that yoga coordinates movement, breath and awareness.

The expectant mum’s entire being is cared for on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

 

Taught by a Yoga teacher with a post graduate specialisation in Pregnancy Yoga, the programme will help you to keep strong, toned and flexible during pregnancy, whilst providing you with a ‘toolbox’ of techniques to support you through childbirth and early motherhood.  

​

At the same time you will have the opportunity to connect to other mums and mums to be so you can share your concerns and excitement in a nurturing and safe space.

~ Time for rest,    
relaxation, restoration ~

Beginners and more experienced students will be catered for and babies are most welcome in the class!!


Yoga during pregnancy is a wonderful way to cultivate awareness of your body, breath and growing baby and to meet other new mums. But once the baby arrives it can be easy to lose connection with other mums, get caught up in the new demands of mothering and feel disheartened about the physical and emotional effects childbirth can have on your body.

​

Benefits:

Postnatal yoga uses movement, balance and relaxation to therapeutically allow your body to recover from pregnancy and birth. When taught by a specialist teacher, it offers not only yoga, but also useful resources that benefit the new mum, whilst providing continuity of care.

 

Here you can connect with your baby and enjoy some quiet time in a supportive and loving community.

Other key benefits of Postnatal yoga include:

​​

  • Provides a time for rest, relaxation and re-connection with the body and breath

  • Helps to rebuild strength, stability and flexibility 

  • Restores the body towards full core strength

  • Cultivates mindfulness and patience and encourages conscious parenting 

  • Helps with body alignment and awareness to ease physical discomforts from holding and feeding of baby and other heavy lifting (e.g. car seats)

  • Encourages connection between mum and her new baby

  • Relieves anxiety and depression 

  • Restores hormonal balance
