Pregnancy is a wonderful time to practise yoga. We welcome all pregnant
women at YogaBirth classes, including new and experienced yoga students.
YogaBirth classes offer a safe, effective and integrated form of yoga,
carefully adapted for you to practise from fourteen weeks of pregnancy
up to the birth of your baby.

Each week positions and movements address posture and circulation,
pelvic floor strength and awareness, and general strength and tone
of muscles throughout your body to enhance your overall health and
comfort. This deep but gentle bodywork helps you develop physical strength
and suppleness; an essential combination for birthing and motherhood.
Breathing, essential to life and birth, is the core of YogaBirth classes.
Regular attendance at the classes will help you to develop confidence
in
your body’s innate ability to give birth.
“Attending the yoga classes gave me confidence to know that I wanted to keep moving during my labour and not be stuck on the bed”
Our classes are infused with preparation for labour and birth, incorporating intelligent, gravity-assisting positions and movements. These provide great comfort, keep the baby well-oxygenated, and potentially make birth easier, faster and uncomplicated.
By facilitating weekly meetings of women in a familiar, relaxing environment, YogaBirth classes provide continuity during both the antenatal and postnatal periods. After each class we chat over tea, and often mothers return to introduce their new babies and to share and celebrate their birth experiences. Many long-lasting friendships begin at YogaBirth classes.
