About Prenatal Yoga
The practice is carefully tailored for your time as a mother-to-be. The intention is to support your pregnancy, preparing you for giving birth, to accept the natural changes, to trust, be confident and have resilience.
In this class, we will be focusing on conscious breathing, stretching, strengthening the back and legs, releasing tension and relaxing. Prenatal yoga gives expecting mothers different tools which they can access when they need them the most.

Looking for a Birth Preparation Course?
Good news: I do a few closed group courses throughout the year.
This weekly 5 part (ca. 6 hours) course is held in a closed group and has a smaller setting than a regular class, making it semi-private. We take a maximum of 8 participants, so mums-to-be have space to be comfortable and safe, while receiving more personlised instruction in a cosy environment.
Giving birth is a personal experience. It is so important to observe your reaction to intense sensations and emotions, so that at the given moment you can choose the best way for you to respond to the intensity of birth. We will explore birthing positions, movements, breathing, and other preparation techniques. These tools will help you to release tension and create physical and mental space, so the arrival of your little one is the result of your amazing capacity to create life, your determination, and an open mindset. You will learn to trust and accept the process, while seeing your power as a woman. This course will share practical information about practices and techniques you can use during labour. It is recommended for mothers-to-be who are 30 weeks pregnant and onwards. The 5 week course will take place with a minimum of 5 participants. As it is a closed course, if you miss a class, it is not possible to re-schedule the missed session. If you book the course and it does not take place, you will receive a full refund.
Cancellations of this course can be made at the latest 72 hours before the first class. Cancellations made after this period are non-refundable.

Looking for a Postnatal Course?
Good news: In 2025 I will offer a few closed group courses throughout the year on Sundays so you can take time for yourself.
This weekly 5 part (6 hours+) course is held in a closed group and has a smaller setting than a regular class, making it semi-private. We take a maximum of 9 participants, so mums have space to be comfortable and safe, while receiving more personlised instruction in a cosy environment.
Postnatal Yoga Course
This course has a holistic approach and offers support on a physical, emotional and mental level.
On a physical level, it will help your body to recover and regain strength after birth. We will concentrate on the pelvic floor region, abdominal wall, and the upper and lower back.
The curated sequences will help you to release the neck, shoulders and upper back.
On a mental level, postnatal yoga helps you to relax and feel more grounded. On an emotional level, this course will provide you with a safe, kind and open space where you could share your experiences during this early motherhood period if you wish. This will create deeper connections and perhaps even friendships with other mums and babies, adding a valuable and important social element.
Most importantly, this course will help you to come back ‘home’ to your body after pregnancy and childbirth.
The Postnatal course is in a smaller setting than a regular class. Ensuring, mums receive a more personalised class that focuses on effective alignment and adjustments to ease postnatal recovery.
• The course will take place with a minimum of 5 participants.
• Please book with a minimum of 24 hours before the first class starts.
• Cancellations can be made up to 72 hours before the first class starts. Cancellations made after this period are non-refundable.
