What is Yoga for Pregnancy?

Yoga for Pregnancy with MATAIP Ltd is a wonderful preparation for pregnancy, labour, birth, and becoming a mother focusing on breathing awareness, grounding, posture, relaxation and movements for pregnancy and labour. Each woman, her pregnancy and birth is unique and so we help you to find YOUR way with yoga.

We believe that our sessions are special because our knowledge of birth and experience in supporting women is incorporated into the sessions so that we can guide you at your own pace which helps you to tap into your own inner knowledge and intuition and enhances your connection with your baby.

How will it benefit me and my baby?

Each session includes YOGA POSTURES and BREATHING awareness which subtly enhance the health of all your body systems and so encourage an improved oxygen and nutrient supply to both you and your baby. MEDITATIONS are included in the sessions which promote confidence and calmness which in turn help release the hormones most needed for a positive birth experience. RELAXATION works in a similar way by helping to relieve tension both physically, mentally and emotionally. All in all our yoga for pregnancy approach is nurturing and helps to improve confidence, calmness, posture, comfort, sleep and some common pregnancy symptoms such as heartburn, backache, cramp, swollen feet etc.

The MATAIP approach makes yoga safe for all women whether they are new to yoga or have practiced before, wherever you are in your pregnancy and whether this is your first baby or a subsequent pregnancy.
