Yoga can be an important tool in adjusting aches and pains caused by the body's rapid changes. As well as helping with relaxation, stress management, and mental preparation for the big day, it can also help prepare mamas-to-be mentally.

1. Everything You Need to
Know About Prenatal
Yoga
yoga can be a sustaining routine for women for many
reasons.
Expectant mothers' bodies are unique,
so there is no one-size-fits-all class.
If you are expecting, prenatal yoga is
an excellent option. Yoga for pregnant
women is taught with the changing
bodies of a pregnant woman in mind.
They are slower paced than typical
yoga classes and are gentler. We find
that pregnant women are most
interested in our Y6 Flow and Y6
Stretch yoga classes.
No matter what type of yoga practice
you pursue, you will have to make
modifications. Take the prenatal class
if you have never taken a yoga class
or practised at home.

As you progress through your trimesters,
you will be able to practice different
poses. Women are advised to avoid deep
twists and forward folds during the first
few months of pregnancy. Your body needs
time to adjust to all of the changes taking
place during this time. These two poses are
okay once you have passed through your
first trimester, so long as you don't
overextend.
In preparation for labour, the body releases
a hormone called Relaxin that helps
ligaments stretch. Pregnant yoga classes
for women are often very flexible.

EXPECTING MOTHERS
Each person has a different yoga
practice. The key to extending your
practice into pregnancy is to find what
works for you and your body. Listen to
what your body is telling you. It may
be easier or harder to practice certain
positions during pregnancy than
before. Prepare your body for the
excitement that lies ahead by using
your practice to relieve stress.
