Prenatal Yoga

Yoga for pregnant women combines yoga positions and movements, breathing techniques, meditation and relaxation in a special way. It promotes the general health of mother and child in a holistic and mindful way, has an activating and relaxing effect. This improves your flexibility and mobility during pregnancy, promotes optimal fetal positioning and the bond with your baby and gives you confidence for the birth. The exercises are anatomically and physiologically sound and adapted to the needs of pregnant women. They calm the mind and emotions, release tension and renew energy.

Yoga is the ideal accompaniment to the physical and emotional changes that come with pregnancy and early motherhood. Yoga promotes mental and physical well-being and helps you find peace, strength and balance.

Our prenatal yoga classes are suitable for women in their second or third trimester (between approximately 14 and 40+ weeks). Pelvic floor exercises, mudras (finger yoga), body loosening and relaxation are part of the classes. In addition to asanas to stretch and strengthen your muscles, you will learn breathing techniques and the principles of Nada Yoga, which include sounds and vibrations.

Pregnancy Yoga by BIRTHLIGHT Yoga is gentle and safe for all women, suitable if you are completely new to yoga and also very beneficial if you already have years of experience. The movements are flowing and rhythmic and have been carefully designed to build awareness, endurance and strength in certain muscle groups while promoting stretching and relaxation in others. Our routines are carefully balanced between activity and relaxation.

The course leader Julia Krusche is a pre- and postnatal yoga teacher according to Birthlight UK (YogaAllianz UK). The basics of the lessons combine western anatomical and physiological knowledge with knowledge of traditional yoga practice and Ayurvedic teachings.

In the 2nd and 3rd trimesters, there is a great focus on supporting birth preparation. Therefore, we also offer a separate birth preparation course that you can attend with your partner.

Julia has been teaching Ashtanga Yoga and Birthlight Yoga in Berlin for 10 years.
