Pregnancy yoga

Yoga for mums-to-be in 2nd trimester.

Yoga during pregnancy can help ease discomfort and stress by adding strength, mobility and relaxation throughout your pregnancy and help increase the mother baby bond.

"The benefits of yoga during pregnancy are immeasurable.

Come practice some gentle movements aimed at keeping mother's bodies healthy, exploring relaxation and learning about underappreciated female anatomy. No prior experience needed.

This yoga class aims to support mother's changing bodies week by week. Some benefits include:

• Toning and releasing important muscle groups, pelvic floor, abdominals and hips, vital to everyday movements and for labour
• Using breathing techniques and relaxations to prepare for and to use during labour including movements for labour
• Provide relief from pregnancy related pains, often times some previous to pregnancy
• Promoting bonding for mum and baby and connecting with other mums
• Learning, adapting to constant changes in mind and body
• Building a tool set to use in everyday
• Feeling empowered, confident and peaceful

Maitri studio is a lovely welcoming studio, with lots of props and comfort in which mums can start to envisage their own labour set ups and creating, habitualising a calm inviting space for the whole of pregnancy and their labour.
Mothering the mother and building our nests.
