Pregnancy and postnatal yoga A unique type of yoga especially for pregnant and postnatal mothers. Taught by a mother of four who has developed her approach over nearly 20 years.

After experiencing the amazing confidence and physiological benefits yoga gave me in my first pregnancy and birth, I trained in teach pregnancy yoga during my second pregnancy. My second son was born within minutes and with very little discomfort, too. I decided I must share the tools of yoga with other pregnant mums, so starting teaching in London shortly afterwards. Since then, I have shared my knowledge of yoga with many women, enabling them to have an enjoyable pregnancy and to feel some control over the kind of birth that they have. Women with no exercise or practise of yoga in their lives and those who are experienced yoginis will benefit from my Pregnancy yoga. I have worked extensively with physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors and obstetricians to develop my practise and knowledge of specific pregnancy and postnatal conditions. This allows me to cater for every women's needs in my small groups. After the birth of my third child, I trained to teach postnatal yoga with the British Wheel of Yoga in London. My training is unique in that I integrate babies and young children of all ages into my groups. I can also accommodate women during subsequent pregnancies who wish to bring their older baby or toddler. Women who attend these groups find the postnatal support and advice invaluable and develop life-long friends. My classes are mainly based in and around Parnell but, if you have a group of friends, why not exercise together? I am happy to come to you. Also, for busy mums with little ones asleep at home, sometimes one-to-one lessons at your home, at a time that suits you works best. You may find it less expensive than getting a babysitter.

"Don’t hope. Learn and plan."
One of the joys of pregnancy yoga is hearing how yoga made all the difference, especially from second, third and fourth time mums who wanted to empower themselves to a better birth.

Some antenatal classes are better than others, it seems at doing this. There is a trend towards some classes at the moment which mums say taught some good skills and gave the partner a significant role in the labour. This can seem appealing to pregnant women, depending on the partner they have. But yoga gives you the internal strength and skills to birth well even if the dad is not suited to being your doula. "It was a game-changer for me when I realised that fathers in the delivery suite is a new phenomenon."

Successful labour and birth need practical and movement-based tools for troubleshooting like baby repositioning or coping with induction. “The yoga I learnt for coping with a posterior labour and using lots of positions, so the baby wasn’t stuck, was much more useful than the breathing and relaxation.”

Give the gift of yoga to a pregnant mum. Yoga is a great gift during pregnancy. Nothing else naturally connects with the magic of the breath for a healthy pelvic floor, body and mind. It encourages mums to let go, to surrender in a way that other exercise does not. Pregnancy-specialist yoga classes give the invaluable tools to cope not just with the physical challenges of pregnancy but with immense emotional and psychological turmoil of the motherhood journey. She will emerge stronger inside and out and be encircled in a sisterhood unlike any other exercise-based class.

For millennia, birth and birth preparation was a woman-centered process. Gain that back with a yoga sisterhood! Empower yourself with the magic of yoga:
• How to use awareness of gravity and pelvis for birth
• Movement during pregnancy and optimal foetal positioning
• Movement during labour for a quicker, more comfortable birth
• Breathing for pregnancy health and for labour and birthing
• Perineal massage and pelvic floor awareness
• Deep relaxation –the power of letting go
