Pregnancy classes

Iyengar Yoga with its active and dynamic quality helps women remain healthy and fit throughout their pregnancy. Since pregnancy is a period of constant change, the yoga course encourages women to ride that change and to explore their transformative powers.

The weekly classes focus on developing body awareness, better posture and alignment in all the joints, more space for the growing fetus and for the mother’s vital organs, a healthy balance between flexibility and strength, fuller breathing capacity and control, and the ability to relax and to stay in the present moment.

The partner class is on the last Wednesday of each month. The partners are welcome to join in and learn how they can support their women in an active birth situation.

Practical information
The course can be joined at any time of the year and at any time in the pregnancy, starting from the 13th week. This also applies for taking regular classes at the Iyengar Yoga Institute of Amsterdam.

The trial class, for which no reservation is necessary, costs 7 €. After this, one can register for the course, which will then run until the end of the pregnancy (due date). The total payment is done upon registration and is calculated from the day of registration at 12 € per class/week until the delivery date. Missed classes can be recuperated either by joining an extra class on the following weeks or in the post-natal period, within the first 6 months after delivery.

The partners class is 7 €.

Classes are taught in English and Dutch.

* The class schedule is subject to change during the months of July and August.
**Classes/class cards are non refundable.
