The classes involve specifically adapted simple yoga postures and practices to nurture the mum-to-be and her growing baby. The

practices can help to maintain and develop physical strength, stamina and flexibility to support your body during pregnancy and the birthing process. Mamma and Baby Yoga:
The classes involve simple yoga postures and practices to nurture and bring enjoyment to both mum and baby. The practices aim to support your baby’s development through passive stretching and rhythmic movement accompanied by singing and action songs. The practices aim to help you improve your posture, re-energise and recover your strength and vitality and enable you to enjoy interacting, moving and relaxing with your baby. General Yoga Classes:
These classes will use classical and adapted yoga postures and practices to nurture, strengthen and energise the body and calm the mind. We will explore physical practices to improve posture and alignment which can often be the cause of everyday aches and pains. Birth Preparation Workshop:
A workshop for mums-to-be and their birth partners. The session looks at: the different stages of labour; how you can put the things we do in class into practice; and what kind of support partners can provide to their partners, including some basic massage techniques. It is a practical and interactive session (for the men and women!) so please wear comfortable clothes. Please contact me for details of classes currently running and for more information.

Breastfeeding for a year. Shocking statistics-

Breastmilk has over 200 beneficial compounds including stem cells & antibodies that protect your baby.

It takes approximately 1800 hours to breastfeed for one year (full time job is 1968 hours)

It takes 500-700 extra calories each day. 182,500-255,500 in one year.

That's equivalent to running 35-50 marathons.

If you feel extra tired it's because your body is WORKING. You should be so proud. ❤️

Have you heard of the purple line?

It's a line of temporary skin discolouration that can be seen on some women in labour.

In simple terms, the line gets longer as labour becomes more advanced, so it's one of a number of non-invasive approaches that we can use to see how a woman/baby is progressing in labour.

I've written about the purple line a few times over the years, so I was really interested to see a new piece of research.

I've just shared the details with the lovely people on my newsletter list, and I've also added the study, and some explanation of the key concepts, to my 'evidence for the purple line' blog post.

You can read my blog post and find out more at https://www.sarawickham.com/questions-and-answers/evidence-for-the-purple-line/

Beginners Yoga Classes
Monday Nights @ The Bonded Warehouse
6.45 - 8.00pm
8 weeks - £72.00
Term starts February 24th 2025

You don't have to be fit and flexible for these classes, as long as you can breathe you can do Yoga. My classes are more focused on the mind than the ability of the body, we use the body and the breath as a tool to settle the mind. (The fit and flexible are welcome too but no showing off if you can reach your toes!) Everyone gets to work within their own limits.

Each term I cover the basics of using the breath to create movement as well as our basic postures and breathing practices, a little Yoga philosophy always gets thrown in so hopefully you will know why we do what we are doing and how to get the best from your time on your mat. And yes... you do get a lie down at the end!
I've been teaching Yoga for over 17 years and haven't stopped my further study in all that time. I enjoy passing on the teachings of Yoga and most of all hearing of the benefits it has given my students over the years.

Booking is essential as class sizes are limited so everyone gets enough attention and space.

Any questions or if you want to book up please just get in touch and I'll be happy to help.

I've written 18 books now.

Several of them are designed to help women and families to understand the evidence so they can make the decisions that are right for them.

And I sometimes think that this might be the most important sentence I've ever written.

Your birth decisions and experiences are nobody's business but yours.

You have the right to make the decisions that are right for you and your baby.

No matter whether that's to do with where you give birth, who you have with you or what you want going on around that.

We need to ensure that ALL birth decisions are respected.

No-one should be hassled, groomed, shamed, coerced or bullied about pregnancy and birth decisions.

Before, during OR afterwards.

This quote comes from my book, "What's Right For Me? Making decisions in pregnancy and childbirth."

That and my other books have helped tens of thousands of women and families for more than 20 years.

If you need information on induction of labour, plus size pregnancy, Anti-D (RhoGAM), group B strep, vitamin K, placental birth, or any other birth decision, I have a website full of information at www.sarawickham.com

I also have books on each of these topics, which are written to help you make the decisions that are right for you.

Your body. Your baby. Your decisions.

It's the simple 💜💜
