5 Reasons You and Your Bump Will Love Pregnancy Yoga

Pregnancy is one wild, wonderful ride – full of excitement, weird cravings, and moments where you suddenly realise you can’t see your toes anymore. But it’s also a time when your body is doing the most incredible thing – growing a whole new human. 🫶

Which is exactly why pregnancy yoga can feel like the best kind of secret weapon. It’s not just about gentle stretches and deep breathing; it’s a chance to connect with your bump, feel more at home in your changing body, and breathe through the ups and downs.

Here are 5 reasons you and your bump are going to fall head over heels for pregnancy yoga:

1. It’s like a big, cosy hug for your body

Let’s be real – growing a baby can feel like you’ve run a marathon and then been asked to do the washing up. Every day. Yoga gives your hard-working body some serious love – easing the aches, soothing those tight hips, and helping you feel less like a waddling penguin and more like a grounded, glowing goddess. ✨

2. It helps you breathe (literally and emotionally)

You know those moments when you feel like you're holding your breath from the sheer overwhelm of it all? (Nappy decisions! Birth plans! "Should I be eating soft cheese?!") Yoga gives you space to exhale. Breathwork in pregnancy yoga isn’t just relaxing – it’s preparation for labour, life, and all the curveballs in between.

3. You’ll actually look forward to moving

Forget dragging yourself to do something "good for you." Pregnancy yoga feels like the opposite of a chore. It’s gentle, nurturing, and totally meets you where you are – whether you’re full of beans or shattered from being up at 3am googling baby names.

And with short, on-demand classes on the app, you don’t even have to get out of your PJs. Win.

4. It’s time just for you

When everyone’s asking about the baby, pregnancy yoga is your sacred time to tune in to you. Your breath. Your body. Your feelings. And spoiler alert: when you’re feeling calmer and more connected, your baby feels that too. 🤍

5. It prepares you for birth and beyond

This isn’t just yoga for right now. The tools you learn on the mat – from breathwork to positions to staying present – are absolute gold when it comes to birth and motherhood. It’s like building your inner toolkit, one mindful movement at a time.
