I am so excited to teach this course again in October and into November - a specialist led yoga for mums (including postnatal) group exercise class in Ashby.
Whether you are a few months postnatal or a few years in, this class has been designed for you because as a mum myself, I know what it is like being in the early months, and years postpartum. Postpartum really is forever but we can alleviate so much through gentle, yet impactful yoga and movement to help support you and build strength in your body.

I believe that what we experience post birth can impact us many months and even years later into motherhood... this is WHY I have created Yoga for Mums in Ashby.
After my children, my body did not feel the same and even though I didn't expect to feel the same.. that doesn't mean I didn't struggle with it. Particularly after my first birth where I really lacked postnatal knowledge of what was happening and why. After a very long and difficult labour and then experiencing the depths of birth trauma, my body felt broken.
I wasn't broken, I was experiencing some huge physical changes and the impact that birth has on our bodies. I also didn't know what I do now - both personally and professionally.
Our births can really impact us. Our bodies have changed and what we need is real, practical movement that will support and nurture us, while rebuilding strength.
Our bodies benefit hugely from specialised movement and exercises, designed specially for women for issues they are experiencing.. whether that's pelvic floor weakness, rebuilding core strength, aches and pains in lower back, tight shoulders from feeding or just feeling really exhausted physically and emotionally.
Why Yoga for Mums including Postnatal Mums in Ashby?
It was important for me to create a class suitable for mums of EVERY stage following birth - newly postnatal and also 'not so new' mums who may be raising toddlers or older children.
It is much needed and much deserved time to breathe, move and reconnect with your body through yoga that can help to nurture and build strength where it is needed most!
You don't need to be flexible or strong or experienced - just ready for an hour that's all yours. I bring all the equipment needed to support you, you just come as you are..
The many benefits of Yoga for Mums:
Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles
Improve your core strength
Ease tightness, aches and pains
Increase energy levels
Nourishing breath work to calm your nervous system
Deep relaxation at the end of class to fill your own cup
Can improve postnatal depression and anxiety symptoms
I would love to help you in your journey, whatever stage you are at.. I would love to help you feel supported and be around a community of mums who get it and are on the same journey. I believe that sharing experiences and space with others can help you feel heard, listened to and nurtured - something that is so important in motherhood.
I hope to see you soon.
