Pregnancy Relax Stretch Breathe Classes combine a gentle yoga-based class with information about pregnancy and birth.
Classes will run from 11am-12:30pm on Wednesdays in the Douglas Yoga Centre, The Mall, Maryborough Woods.
The classes aim to improve physical and emotional wellbeing, provide information about birth and increase the likelihood of a positive birth experience. The groups are a mix of first-time expectant mothers and those who’ve previously given birth so there’s lots of sharing of wisdom and tips within the group. The benefits of relaxation and gentle exercise during pregnancy are well known and these uniquely-designed classes are only provided by Antenatal Ireland Teachers in Ireland.
The classes offer you time out from busy schedules, to relax and concentrate on yourself and your baby.
These classes can help during pregnancy by:
improving posture
improving confidence about labour and birth
helping with breathing for labour and birth
promoting informed decision making
relaxing the mind and aiding sleep
helping with some pregnancy ailments
increasing flexibility
increasing familiarity with positions to aid birth
Pregnancy Relax Stretch Breathe is for complete beginners as well as those who have some yoga experience. If you have a specific ailment you should check the suitability of this class with your care provider. You can join the class from 14 weeks in pregnancy right up to birth.
Tina-Marie Bruton is our Cork based Cuidiu Antenatal Ireland educator and will be facilitating these classes.
