Join Harriet for Monday Perinatal Yoga Lunch Club! This is a 45 minute class suitable during pregnancy and postpartum so you can continue to practice throughout this stage of your life.

In this class, Harriet endeavours to share practices that are empowering, grounding and joyful with you, creating space for you to thrive and flourish. We can begin to see this practice as a vital movement which enables space, community and time to acknowledge your experiences, cultivating a deep awareness of yourself and your body as it changes and evolves during pregnancy and into postpartum.

What can I expect from the class?
We start with a few moments to say hi, and anyone that feels like sharing how they’re doing is welcome to. Class usually begins either seated or lying in our sides with a few moments to ground and arrive. Then we move into some gentle movements to warm up the joints and body, followed by core stability and pelvic floor work. Some sessions we might make it to standing and others we’ll stay close to the ground. We usually find space for some gentle breathing or meditation/yoga nidra followed by some quiet time to rest.

You are welcome to dip in/out and attend to whatever you need to during the class - if you need to go to the bathroom or get a drink/snack, or attend to your baby/kids. Breastfeeding is welcome and encouraged through the class and I’m happy to suggest options to include this is you like.

When can I join this class?
This class is suitable during pregnancy and in postpartum once you have stopped bleeding (around 6 weeks for a vaginal birth and 10-12 weeks for abdominal/c-section birth). If you have any queries or concerns regarding your participation please feel free to reach out to me in advance via email to chat through. Remember that any body that’s experienced pregnancy and birth is a postpartum body: you might join 6 weeks or 6 years after giving birth and that’s equally valid and welcome.

Also suitable if you're journeying through IVF or trying to conceive, or if you're a few years postpartum and wanting to return to gentle movement/develop strength again.

What do I need?
If you have a yoga mat, that’s great! But you could also practice on carpet or a rug if you like. You’ll also likely want a few cushions/blankets. If you’ve got yoga props (bolsters, blocks etc) that’s wonderful but not essential.

What do I need to wear?
Whatever you feel comfortable in. Generally something stretchy that you can move in is great, but you don’t need anything special. There’s also no pressure to turn your camera on so you can show up however is best for you that day!

How does payment work?
Monday Perinatal Yoga Lunch Club is run on a monthly basis. £20 gets you access to every class running for one month, and you automatically receive access to the recordings if you can't make it live. That way you never miss a class. 

It's of course important to me that I offer an accessible pricing option, so to join for free, no questions asked, use the code LUNCHCLUB at checkout.

Recordings are made available via a private YouTube playlist.
