I’m delighted to offer two in-person Pregnancy Yoga weekly classes, which I’ve been teaching since 2008.
And I continue to offer really valuable pre-recorded shorter 45 minute classes too for those who can’t make an in-person class.
You can start attending my classes at any time in your pregnancy right up until (and beyond!) your estimated delivery date (most babies quite sensibly wait until they are ready to be born, rather than paying attending to a given Due Date!). I used to ask people to wait til they were in their second trimester however evidence shows that exercise during pregnancy is super healthy and my classes are gentle, effective, sociable, and informative. Join when you feel ready.
I trained in Pregnancy Yoga in 2008 (and Postnatal Yoga not long after) and have since studied extensively on the pelvic floor and women’s health. My classes are relaxed and friendly, and I try to help you gently navigate the ups and downs of your pregnancy. If I can’t help, I often know someone who can!
It’s so straightforward to join a class. You can pay for a single class to try it out (£14).
When you’re ready, you can purchase an 8 Class Pass for £104 or a 4 Class Pass for £55. Once you have a Class Pass you have a guaranteed place in the class but if you can’t make it any week, as long as you let me know (a quick text is fine), you are not charged. And I refund if you can’t finish a pass for any reason (such as your baby arrived!). So you only pay for classes you come to – and you can switch between classes as you need to just let me know so I can make sure there’s space in the class. Nice!
The payment page (accessed from the Booking button below) includes a link to my Pregnancy Student Form. You must fill this in before you come to class.
Once I’ve received your form, which gives you a chance to tell me when you would like to come to your first class, I will be in touch to confirm your place in class.
Everything is provided for your classes – mats, blocks, blankets, bolsters, eye pillows – but please bring your own kit if you prefer.
Being pregnant is a special time and yet there can be many physical, mental and emotional challenges. In my classes you will deeply relax and enjoy your unique connection with your baby. You’ll be able to chat and share advice with other mums-to-be in the in-person class.
I have a Whatsapp group for my pregnancy students and you will be invited to join once you start the class.
You’ll learn how to safely stretch and strengthen your body and keep it healthy and fit, often alleviating, soothing or even preventing some of those pregnancy aches and pains – such as varicose veins, ligament pain, diastasis recti, pelvic floor issues, backache and tiredness, stress and anxiety.
Every couple of months, I do a special session where we look at using a birth ball in labour. You can use a chair if you haven’t got a ball 🙂
The in-person classes are both held at the Bath Methodist Church at Weston, Newbridge Hill, Bath BA1 3PP. This is a large carpeted airy space with wheelchair / buggy access. The entrance to the church is right by the mini roundabout at the top of Chelsea Road, next to Cadence Bike Shop. I’ve been teaching in this community space for years and love it’s warm and friendly atmosphere.
There is no specific parking at the church but you can usually find parking spaces in nearby residential roads and also on Chelsea Road (which has no parking restrictions after 6pm).
I run these popular 3 1/2 hour workshops every 3 months.
Informative and practical, these sessions inspire and empower you to have a positive, active labour. Scientific research shows time and again that a physically and emotionally supportive partner improves labour outcomes.
You will learn how to work together to stay in control of your birth experience and learn a host of natural pain relieving techniques, including simple breath and visualisation practices, using a birth ball, skillful birthing positions for different stages of labour and acupressure point work.
“Best thing we’ve done in terms of feeling prepared for the birth. I’m feeling much more positive about it now. Thank you.”
WHAT STUDENTS SAY
"Thank you for last night's class. Although we are all far away, it was wonderful to virtually be able to connect with other expectant mums-to-be. I felt so much calmer."
Becky W.
"I've been doing Georgie's Pregnancy Yoga classes since week 17 of my pregnancy and it is the highlight of my week. I leave feeling totally and utterly relaxed every single week and it's really helping me prepare both physically and mentally for labour."
Bex H.
"My midwife said how well I coped, complimented me on my breathing and pelvic floor. All thanks to you! Thanks again - I really can't say how much your classes have helped with both my pregnancies and labours."
