After over 14 years as a
swimming teacher, it seemed a natural step to combine my two passions; yoga and
swimming.
Aqua yoga
is the most natural way to promote and sustain fitness and health. It offers a
gentle and easily available way to enjoy movement and breathing by using the
supportive element of the water.
Using a combination of
swimming exercises and classic yoga postures, this class will benefit those who
wish to get fit and maintain a healthy body.
Swimming is rated as the top
exercise for stamina, suppleness and strength as it exercises the whole body simultaneously.
It boosts your immune system and increases lung capacity. Supported by the
water, joints and muscles can move freely, unhampered by gravity.
Antenatal
yoga is specifically designed
around the trimesters of pregnancy, and the practice is adapted to meet the
physical needs of mums' rapidly changing body.
In antenatal yoga, we aim
to:
- Enjoy a gravity free environment
- Open the pelvis
- Stretch and strengthen spinal and abdominal muscles
- Gain control of the pelvic floor muscles, so you can relax them while giving birth
- Expand your breathing capacity
- Relax deeply and release worries and stress
- 'Tune in’ with your growing baby
