Active Birth Yoga
Pre natal or Active Birth Ki Yoga helps prepare you physically, hormonally and emotionally for pregnancy and child birth.
These are the longest running and most comprehensive pre natal classes in the area, facilitated by Avalon’s pioneer prenatal yoga therapist Denby Sheather.
Each 8 week course works to strengthen the blood and reproductive organs, the pelvis, legs and lower back and includes gentle healing massage, shiatsu therapy, chakra balancing, meditations and visualisations plus pranayama (breath work) for pre and established labour and birthing. When we are connected, open hearted and fear less, we can meet and work with, the challenges of birth.
Most of the physical discomforts and emotional surges experienced during pregnancy can be embraced, relieved and even avoided with simple postures and breath awareness. Easing stress and building strong organs will balance the central nervous system, enhance circulation & relieve digestive tension. Yoga is also very effective for relaxing any anxieties or energy blockages that may be hindering conception as well. By marrying the breath with your innate ability to sustain life and give birth, you CAN manifest for yourself a natural conception, empowering labour and active birth. This is not just your hearts’ desire, it is your birthright.
You will be shown the “how to” and be guided respectfully and lovingly, towards your own power birthing zone. All our birth courses and YogaDoula workshops are highly sought-after and fill quickly, so book early to avoid disappointment.
