Pregnancy yoga is the ideal way to bring the body
into harmony with the changes and demands of pregnancy. Yoga maintains
and
improves health, it allows us to trust our intuition, and ability to
listen to the body. This is vital for labour to progress naturally
and brings calm if things don’t go quite according to plan. This
class offers time for you to enjoy the unfolding, and time to be with
your
baby. Yogabirth, yoga for pregnancy, classes offer healthy exercise and preparation for labour and birth. These antenatal classes run in Inverkeithing and Dunfermline.

the only one I get a week!"

you taught really helped me during labour, and it was a really
relaxing forum
