POSTNATAL YOGA
Beyond 6 Months

Please join the regular classes at Gems of Yoga if you have been practising Post Natal Yoga.

Offering continuity from pregnancy to the postnatal year has been a Gems Of Yoga principal from the start. Original sets of yoga practices, many of which are now mainstream, are uniquely suited to help you regain your core-strength, your figure and overall fitness after birth by restoring tone to the deep muscles of the pelvis and lower back.  ‘Steps to postnatal recovery’ can be started at any time after birth. They are easy and can be done in bed or on a carpet in a few minutes daily.  Each step ‘closes’ the body and re-knits abdominal muscles using yoga breathing, with the additional effect of inducing deeper sleep and reducing postnatal fatigue.  Babies are included in most Gems Of Yoga postnatal yoga classes but you may please have an assistant to assist you with the baby:  interactive mother and baby yoga moves promote ‘active bonding’ (also with dads) in age appropriate ways through the first weeks and months. All Gems Of Yoga postnatal yoga practices are suitable for mothers who have given birth by caesarean section.  Rather than aiming to resume a gym or yoga routine as early as possible, Gems Of Yoga invites mothers to create a new foundation for better fitness while being energised from within and enjoying their babies fully. More dynamic yoga poses and moves are also offered to make a safe transition to general yoga or other forms of exercise with long term benefits for women’s health.

Client Testimonial

I did Sunita’s prenatal sequences and started the Post Natal restore sequence 4 weeks pp after a c-section. Felt great. Im now adding on the PostNatal Stretch at 6 weeks pp. Thanks, Sunita, for these gentle, but super effective poses to bring some energy back into the body. MUCH APPRECIATED.

Thanks Sunita, my Abdominal Diastasis recti from pregnancy – the space between left and right belly muscles which had widened has greatly reduced. Lets just say that old flat belly may never return. Would love to know if I can join your regular weight loss classes now!
