In this gentle, prenatal-friendly class, set yourself up with the long side of the mat against an empty wall. We tend to become less stable during pregnancy because of the hormone relaxin and a shifting of our center of gravity. This class will focus on opening up the parts of the body that tend to get tight during pregnancy (chest, shoulders, calves) and will challenge our balance with a few standing balancing poses. Make sure you have water nearby and listen to your body - rest and modify as needed.
Jess is 23 weeks pregnant in this video.
This class can also be great for those looking for a gentler practice.
