PREGNANCY YOGA
Yoga for Pregnancy can have all sorts of benefits. Our gentle yoga sessions can help you get your body and mind ready for birth. You don’t need to have practiced yoga before to enjoy the benefits the class will offer you.
Yoga for Pregnancy is a great way to relax and spend time with your unborn baby. Learn breathing techniques, practising birthing poses and connecting with your changing body. Staying active through light exercise does your body and your baby good, through gentle movements to improve strength and energy levels and to alleviate common aches and pains. It will help you relax, sleep better. You’ll meet other mums and feel more positive and relaxed about birth. You’re welcome to join from week 14 of your pregnancy, right up until birth. The reason being we say from 14 weeks onwards is that during the first trimester you can feel very tired, and not to mention the ‘morning’ (all day) sickness!
We make sure our classes are a calm and supportive place to meet. Every mum to be is welcome to join our Yoga classes. Whether you’re pregnant with you first child or your seventh. We look forward to meeting you and your bump in a class soon.

You have this right: from your first day of employment if you're an employee, whether you work full time or part time.
The antenatal appointments need to be on the advice of a doctor, nurse or midwife and can include:
scans
