Prenatal Yoga

 Let’s Get Moving.

Growing a human is exhausting. Re-energize with yoga classes specially designed to keep you feeling your best throughout your pregnancy, prepare you for labor, and deepen your bond with baby.

About

Your knowledgeable instructor will lead you through a prenatal yoga class specially designed to connect your body and mind, as well as deepen your bond with baby. Plus, prenatal yoga can help to:

• Improve sleep

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Decrease lower back pain, nausea, headaches and shortness of breath

• Increase the strength, flexibility and endurance of muscles needed for childbirth

• Meet and bond with other pregnant women and prepare for the stress of being a new parent.

In a typical Prenatal Yoga class at The Nest, you can expect:

• Breathing: You'll be encouraged to focus on breathing in and out slowly and deeply through the nose. Prenatal yoga breathing techniques might help you reduce or manage shortness of breath during pregnancy and work through contractions during labor.

• Gentle stretching: You'll be encouraged to gently move different areas of your body, such as your neck and arms, through their full range of motion.

• Asanas (Postures): While standing, sitting or lying on the ground, you'll gently move your body into different positions aimed at developing your mind/body connection as well as your strength, flexibility and balance. Props — such as blankets and cushions — might be used to provide support and comfort.

• Cool down and relaxation: At the end of each prenatal yoga class, you'll relax your muscles and restore your resting heart rate and breathing rhythm. You might be encouraged to listen to your own breathing, pay close attention to sensations, thoughts and emotions, or repeat a mantra or word to bring about a state of self-awareness and inner calm.

**NOTE!** Always check with your healthcare provider before you begin any prenatal yoga program.
