YOGA FOR PREGNANCY AND BIRTH
The type of exercises suitable for pregnancy must be non-strenuous, neither straining nor tiring.
They should save energy and release tension; reduce a woman's heartbeat and breathing rate and always be asisted by gravity rather than resisted by it.
Yoga stretching fits all these demands.
Through the various stretches a woman gently, gradually, and powerfully encourages her joints and muscles to give up their habitual stiffness.
Yoga stretching regularly during pregnancy directs a woman's attention to her body.
This subtly changes her feeling of her physical self.
It doesn't make her self-conscious.
What it does is increase her self-awareness.
All the benefits of practising stretching, that is, improved suppleness,
posture, relaxation, breathing, circulation, and energy are especially desirable during this vital time.
Yoga practice during pregnancy can be used to......
Strengthen the pelvis
Develop breath awareness and control
Boost energy and lessen fatigue
Enhance strength and confidence
Improve posture,balance,flexibility
Promote relaxation
Alleviate triedness,nausea,backpain,anxiety,heartburn
Prepare for a natural childbirth
Ensure a speedy recovery after birth
HOW SOON CAN I BEGIN TAKING PREGNANCY YOGA CLASSES?
Women are welcome to join the class after 12 weeks pregnant in their 2nd/3rd trimester. The more you practice, and the earlier you practice yoga, the greater the benefits that you will enjoy!
HOW LONG CAN I CONTINUE TAKING PREGNANCY YOGA CLASSES?
Most women continue attending the class up to one or two weeks before their delivery date. However, it is always important to listen to your body-and the advice of your doctor or midwive.
NO YOGA EXPERIENCE NEEDED COME ALONG AND TRY A CLASS!!!
Items to bring: Mats are provided, but you are welcome to bring your own along
water bottle,
blanket (optional) used for support and to cover the body for relaxation.
Wear comfy clothing !
Amanda's pregnancy yoga classes provide a gentle to challenging Vinyasa yoga practice incorporating breathing techniques helping you to release tension and relieve or prevent backache and other discomforts of pregnancy.
learn the Art of relaxation, I believe that relaxation is the major key to enjoying both labour and birth, resulting in a gentle birth for the baby.
Away from the pressures and stress of daily life, this valuable time will allow you room to focus entirely on yourself and your pregnancy.
