Prenatal Yoga

If you've reached this page and you're pregnant, then Congratulations!
Pregnancy Yoga classes are weekly on-going on Wednesday Evenings . You can join our weekly class any time, once you've had your first scan.
You will need to book your place please click the 'Bookings' link at the top of the page.
Classes are in our lovely central Exeter studio to set the right nurturing ambience for your practice.
No previous Yoga experience is necessary to join our weekly pregnancy Yoga classes, from 12 weeks to birth.
Practicing Yoga during pregnancy is one of the best things and woman can do for herself and her baby.
Pregnancy Yoga classes provide a warm and supportive environment to guide you safely through every stage of pregnancy, preparing you for labour and birth.
The postures and movements are designed to keep the body feeling open & free, safely keep joints moving without over stretching while moving & maintaining posture, strength and an all round sense of wellness . The exercises improve circulation & have a wide range of therapeutic benefits. Breathing exercises boost energy, calm the nervous system, improve the efficiency of the bodily systems & can be most beneficial during labour. Relaxation counteracts the effects of stress and helps improve sleep to allow the body to recharge.
Each mother deserves to be nurtured and cherished during her pregnancy.
The classes aim to equip you with the knowledge necessary to address common pregnancy ailments and potential physical, mental or emotional obstacles, giving you the confidence and strength to bring new life into the world.
Many women start Yoga when they're expecting. Full instruction and guidance is given on all movement and postures. I tend to highlight anything that may seem challenging at first and generally help to offer useful techniques to help women deal with the various types of discomfort that being pregnant can bring. Also tried and tested breathing techniques and movements to help mums remain calm and relaxed as possible through out labour.
Stress free mum = happy baby!💞
