Benefits of Pregnancy Yoga
Physical benefits
Pregnancy yoga strengthens muscles that are needed during childbirth, such as your abdominal muscles and pelvic floor muscles. It is also good for your posture. This can help relieve back pain, which is common during pregnancy. In addition, (continuing to) exercise is good for your blood circulation, night’s sleep and flexibility.
Emotional and mental support
Before, during and after a pregnancy, everything changes (or should I say: everything) in your life and in your body. Fortunately, it is becoming increasingly open to discussion that it is not all a big pink glitter cloud. The breathing techniques and meditations that we do during classes help you learn to deal with what is happening and can reduce stress.
By exercising together with other expectant mothers, you notice that you are not alone in this and you can exchange experiences.
