I'm always saying that we should adapt the pose to suit the body, not bend our body into a pretzel to get the perfect pose! It’s about making movement accessible and safe for all.
A few tips for you....
⭐️Change the depth of a posture
⭐️Open a twist instead of closing the twist
⭐️Change the angle of joints/reduce your stance
⭐️Add a prop or use the wall or a chair for support
⭐️Keep arms are heart level
Below is why modifications are given in ALL of our classes where needed.
? Yoga for Pregnancy - postures are chosen and adapted to accommodate your growing bump and any other pregnancy related ailments that may develop throughout your pregnancy.
? Yoga for Mum & Baby - postures are adapted to allow you to hold baby whilst practising but also to allow your body the movement within safe ranges after birthing your baby. As the hormone relaxin is still present we need to be mindful of contributing to joint laxity and instability within your joints. We are also very mindful of your abdominal muscles and pelvic floor that have expanded to accommodate baby but now need the care and attention to allow proper healing to take place.
? Yoga for Women - postures can be adapted depending on your level of activity, energy that day and any other health related issues that need attention.
