What should I expect from a Fertility Yoga Class?

Yoga is applied to a natural stimulation of ovarian function and to womb ecology, the creation of an optimal womb environment. A variety of body, mind and spirit resources are drawn from yoga to help you to cope with the stress associated with uncertainties around this time and to increase the ability to self-nurture in preparation for motherhood.

Yoga to support fertility will help you relax and enhance your fertility with specific yoga-based exercises. The focus is on creating space, releasing and on optimising blood flow to muscles and connective tissues in the lower pelvis. This activates the loops that link ovaries and hormonal pathways during the menstrual cycle and also in the early phases of conception and implantation.
