Pre-Natal Yoga offers classical yoga poses adapted to the ever changing needs of pregnancy. A class will usually offer a combination of adapted Yoga Postures, body flow movement, and pelvic floor exercises, breathing techniques to help prepare for labour, sound, visualisation and relaxation practices.
The class is also a wonderful opportunity to cover different aspects of pregnancy, labour and early stage of motherhood in a safe and supportive environment where mothers to be get to meet other women going through the same wonderful experience (and at times the same little difficulties)
Benefits of Pre-Natal Yoga:
-Ease common aches and pains of pregnancy.
-Strengthen the lower back and help stabilize the pelvis.
-Tone the pelvic floor and prepare it for labour.
-Create space for your growing baby.
-Prepare for labour (through movement, breath and relaxation techniques).
-Achieve a state of greater physical and mental relaxation with each session, which in turn helps sleep better.
-Nurture yourself and restore depleted energy levels.
-Meet and connect with other mothers to be.

Pregnancy Yoga is a great preparation for birth. Not only it helps the body to get ready and softer; not only you get to understand what is ahead of you and how you can best prepare; but it is also a great opportunity to meet other women in the same condition and exchange experiences (and why not build friendships!).
I would recommend this course additionally to the birth classes given at the hospital as they serve different purposes. Frederique is very qualified, listens carefully to each individual case and adapts accordingly where necessary. She professionally explains you the different birth options you have without pushing or judging you.
She also offers the posibility to do a partner workshop. This is a fantastic opportunity for your birth partner to understand what to do, as his support is extremely important if not vital! My husband as well as friends who did it with Frederique found this preparation extremely useful. They realized they can (have to!;-) ) actually contribute to the birth! Even if then during the delivery you don't apply all you've learned, you will know the basics and go from there! Last but not least, it is also important to do post-natal exercises to help the body "get back to normal". Again I did these with Frederique and they were very useful as well. Good Luck to you all!
