Next Pregnancy yoga course starts in September Monday evenings 7.40-8.40 pm St John’s church hall, Bryngwyn Road Newport
Yoga for mums-to-be (pregnancy yoga classes)
Pregnancy yoga is suitable for both beginning students and experienced practitioners. During pregnancy, yoga can play a key role in enhancing the experience of this precious time and empowering the mother-to-be to have the most conscious birth experience. Yoga can help women enjoy their pregnancy with minimal discomfort, cultivate breath awareness and strengthen the body in preparation for labour. Yoga also offers you the opportunity to connect with your baby, and coming to classes is a great way to feel part of a community of pregnant women.
When to practise
It’s never too late to practise pregnancy yoga. So if you are past your first trimester, come along and experience the benefits of yoga under the care of our expert pregnancy yoga teachers. General guidelines are that you do not practise yoga during the first trimester. Start in the second trimester and continue your classes until before birth. Be conscious of how your body feels and seek medical advice regarding any health issues.
