Prenatal Yoga

Premier Pilates & Yoga offers Prenatal and Postpartum Yoga private sessions as well as group classes specifically for the pre-and post pregnant client. Exercising during pregnancy provides you with less physical discomfort and more energy and gives you the strength you need for labor and a quick recovery after birth.

Prenatal/Postpartum Yoga is a great way to complement both Bradley and Lamaze birthing classes. Your baby is welcome to attend all Post-partum Yoga group classes. We recommend that babies are at least 6 months and up to 12 months only to take the classes. Be sure to stay well hydrated, especially if you are breast feeding. We encourage you to bring a water bottle to class.
