designed specifically for women from 14 weeks of pregnancy onwards. Pre-natal yoga classes are hugely popular and have proved to be very empowering in helping women cope with pregnancy, childbirth and post partum in a calm and effective way, and because it helps minimise adrenalin responses then medical intervention in childbirth is often minimised also. Senior midwife Paula Brown from the Arrowe Park Hospital Wirral, has reported the benefits to me many times saying that pregnancy yoga has significantly helped women deal with labour and childbirth in a very effective way, often making the whole process easier for the mother and baby and also the nursing staff.
