Yoga for Pregnancy


'Yoga is ideal for pregnancy as it allows women to practice both on a physical and spiritual level while at the same time develop confidence and self awareness.  It is an excellent preparation for labour which requires a woman to have developed a certain flexibility of body as well as of mind. You may find your energy levels change constantly throughout this time and yoga can encourage awareness of posture with attention to grounding, breathing, gentle stretching and relaxation' (Yoga Scotland/BWY guidelines 2009/2010).

Whilst there is no guarantee yoga will lead to an easier birthing experience it can help to prepare you with the challenges of birth and motherhood.

This class is for women who are a minimum 15 weeks into their pregnancy.  No experience of yoga is required as this class is specifically designed for you. If you have any concerns about your health and your pregnancy please see your midwife/GP before joining the class.

You can practice yoga right up to the birth of your baby. Toward the end of your pregnancy you can pay a drop in rate of £8 per class.
