Pre & postnatal yoga

Pregnancy and the postpartum period are periods of profound transformation.

Pre & postnatal yoga offers adapted, conscious and reassuring support to support the body and the emotional balance of women at each stage of motherhood.

Here, the posture adapts to the body. The practice becomes a space for listening, regulating and connecting to yourself and your child.

These yoga practices are available to all women regardless of whether or not there is previous yoga experience.

Why practice yoga during pregnancy and after delivery?

Prenatal yoga

  • Relieves lower back and pelvic pain

  • Supports posture and circulation

  • Gently strengthens the pelvic floor and deep muscles

  • Learn breathing techniques that are useful for childbirth

  • Promotes relaxation and better sleep

  • Strengthens the connection to yourself and your baby, and to other moms-to-be

Postnatal yoga

  • Gradually regain strength and mobility

  • Reengage the abdominal belt consciously and support and protect the pelvic floor

  • Relieve tensions related to carrying and breastfeeding

  • Take time for yourself, refocus

  • Reconnecting with your body after birth

  • Foster a spirit of community among young mothers to support each other and exchange between peers

My approach

Each session is built around three axes: adapted movement, conscious breathing and body listening.

Courses include:

  • adapted postures and fluid sequences

  • specific work on the pelvic floor, abdominal muscles and back muscles

  • breathing exercises (pranayama)

  • Meditation and relaxation times

  • the use of accessories to support the body

  • A short time for exchanges between mothers to promote a spirit of community and to feel less alone

Particular attention is paid to the regulation of the nervous system. Mindful breathing and breaks help calm the mind, reduce stress, and develop useful resources for childbirth and postpartum.

The practice encourages interoception — the ability to finely sense internal sensations — in order to promote a lasting balance between body and mind.

Teaching is based on caring, and adaptations are always proposed so that each woman can respect her pace and her specific needs.

Practice mindfully

Motherhood is a major transition in every woman's life. Yoga can become a valuable support to get through it with more stability and confidence.

⚠️ A woman can start practicing Prenatal yoga or hatha yoga at any time during pregnancy and continue until delivery, unless otherwise advised by your doctor. However, it is recommended to start from the 13th week to benefit from all the benefits of regular practice on the body and mind.

⚠️ It is also recommended to start a practice of Postnatal yoga or hatha yoga starting around 6 weeks after delivery, if your body is ready and approved by your doctor and physiotherapist.
