A wonderful way to bond with your baby, regain your strength, connect with others and feel great, one day at a time. These classes are specially designed to allow you to safely practice yoga with your baby by your side, or joining in.
Classes are suitable from 6 weeks after a vaginal birth, or 8 weeks after a c-section, until your baby is on the move. As with any exercise after birth, it is always a good idea to get the all clear from your doctor before you start classes. Ask them to check whether you have Diastasis Recti (separated tummy muscles).
These classes run as a course over 5/6 weeks during term time. We take you through a progressive approach to help you build core strength and revitalise yourself class by class. Each term you will feel stronger and be able to do more. If you had a baby a year ago or more and never incorporated a dedicated postnatal training, you may not have fully strengthened your deepest core. This could mean you suffer with an achy lower back, particular after any other exercise or you have a little wee when you laugh, cough or sneeze... if this sounds like you, feel free to book in and come along to class soon too.

Being a LushTums teacher combines my love of yoga and the benefits it brings together with my passion for positive birth. Pregnancy is such a special time in a woman's life but for some it can be daunting - I believe in empowering women and giving them information they need to make the best choices. I have been practising Yoga for twelve years and as well as being physically beneficial it gives me a sense of peace and well being that I take into everyday life. In my classes I want women to have some much needed time for themselves, a bit of escapism from everyday pressures and most importantly confidence to trust their bodies and instincts so they are not afraid. I qualified as a LushTums Pregnancy Yoga Teacher in April 2016 and I am FEDANT accredited.
