Yoga
Forty Weeks
Join me for yoga classes designed to prepare your body and mind for childbirth and motherhood. With no prerequisites required, these inclusive sessions focus on practical postures, relaxing techniques and breath work with a focus on helping to get your baby in an optimal position for labour and birth preparation. I like to think of it as birth preparation through movement.
Yoga for a Healthier Pregnancy and Beyond
Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga at Forty Weeks
We offer a comprehensive system of hatha yoga, specifically designed to support you throughout your pregnancy and into the postnatal period. Whether you’re preparing to welcome your new baby or seeking to maintain a healthy, conscious lifestyle, our yoga classes are tailored to meet your needs.
Accessible and Empowering
Yoga is for everyone. You don’t need to be especially flexible, spiritual, or peaceful to start—there are no prerequisites other than a desire to prepare your body and mind for the arrival of your baby. Our classes are inclusive and designed to be accessible for all expecting mothers, regardless of experience or fitness level.
The Living Yoga Method
Our curriculum is based on The Living Yoga Method, a progressive approach that has been refined over 25 years of dedicated practice and teaching. This method not so much follows traditional lines but evolves with them, ensuring that each session is both nurturing and effective.
In our classes, midwives focus on postures specifically aimed at:
• Opening your pelvis: Making it easier for your baby to assume the optimal position for birth.
• Enhancing baby’s positioning: Helping your baby get into the best possible alignment for a smoother delivery.
• Deep relaxation techniques: Utilizing breath work to ease stress and enhance your emotional and physical well-being.
