This yoga session adapted for pre+post natal women, is a safe environment to explore your changing body and emotions. Accessible yoga postures will focus on gentle stretching different areas of your body, with some strengthening of the muscles around your back, hips, and pelvic floor. We will look at creating comfort, with breathing exercises to calm and relax plus visualisations to help with stress reduction. Each session includes a deep guided meditation, plus time to chat and connect with a community of women. No previous experience of yoga is needed, beginners are welcome. We recommend that you are 12+ weeks pregnant before attending this class. Children and babies are welcome in this session.

About the organisation

Body Mind Collective CIC is a not-for profit providing opportunities and resources for Sandwell residents to better their health and wellbeing. We strive to be affordable, accessible, and inclusive to people of differing ages, body sizes, ethnicities, gender identities, and sexualities. We endeavour to remove physical and mental barriers for those with physical disabilities and impairments, and for those with additional mental and emotional needs. In our group yoga sessions, we explore movement, breathing and meditation techniques in order that Sandwell residents can experience some of the benefits of yoga. This may include: • Improve physical mobility, strength, and posture. • Better manage emotions such as stress, fear, anxiety, and frustration • Learn ways to relax and improve sleep. • Increase energy levels. • Improve digestion. • Regulate breathing. Additionally, Body Mind Collective hosts sessions for local businesses, charities, and events, with any profits re-invested into the local community. We secure private and public sector funding to deliver programmes to Sandwell residents at a lower cost.
