PREGNANCY YOGA
Pregnancy Yoga Course
With Rachel Sandage
14 JANUARY - 11 FEBRUARY 2027
THURSDAYS, 15.30-17.00
Joining this 5-week pregnancy yoga course is your opportunity to deepen your awareness and connection to your changing body and the beautiful baby(ies) growing in your womb.
You will come to understand some of the physical and mental/emotional transitions you may experience throughout pregnancy, labor, and birth. You will also learn an abundance of yogic tools to support you during moments of overwhelm and stress, so that you can find a more balanced and grounded place within you. These practices have been shown to improve and maintain your postural alignment and strength while reducing stiffness and tension. This combination of physical and mental preparation that yoga cultivates can considerably improve your labor and birth experience, along with your ability to recover postpartum.
Having a space and time each week to share breath, movement, and thoughts is a beautiful way to connect with other moms, share the experience of pregnancy, and build a sense of community - perhaps even creating friendships that continue as you step into your journey of parenthood.
Who is this course for?
This course is suitable for any pregnant person who is anywhere from late 1st trimester to 3rd trimester. No yoga experience needed. After signing up, you will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire so that your teacher understands a bit about you and your pregnancy so far.

About your teacher
Rachel is one of our studio teachers with over 10 years of experience. Her background began with powerful vinyasa yoga for strength and stamina, leading to yin yoga for fascia-tension release and relaxation. Before Rachel became a mother of twins, she regularly practiced yoga throughout her pregnancy and realized the benefits of understanding the ways to safely modify postures and movement, to utilize specific breathing and mental exercises, and to find connection and community with others for support during this beautiful and challenging time in life. This inspired her to also become a certified prenatal and postnatal yoga teacher with additional education in pelvic floor health.
What you can expect from any class with Rachel is a welcoming smile. You will receive clear, effective guidance to help you grow your abilities and knowledge to improve your overall physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. In class, it is important for her that you feel supported and a sense of belonging, whether you are facing a challenging moment or finding peaceful relaxation. Life can be a bit of a rollercoaster at times, and Rachel wants to share all the ways yoga can help you understand and trust your own body and mind to navigate it.
