What to Expect?

 

Prenatal Yoga is a practice built for You and your Baby (or Babies!). Our classes are set in a small, intimate setting, and yoga props like bolsters, blocks, Birthing Ball and straps are commonly used to facilitate the practice and make the poses attainable, without strain.

Mindful movement incorporating other principles support your Active Birthing journey.

 

A typical Prenatal Yoga class entails light meditation, breath work, gentle stretching, standing and seated poses (with modifications and props), and relaxation. You will notice a difference in the practice format from each trimester, as our teachers modify the practice according to your pregnancy and physical condition. Prenatal Yoga is safe to be practised right up to Baby's birth.
