Pregnancy Yoga & Birth Preparation 10 Week Cycles
in person in Beaconsfield & online
From the beginning of 2026 Small Blessings offers 10 week Pregnancy Yoga cycles which include
🌿 a 6 week in-depth course - six 2 hour workshop-style classes - Thurs 6 to 8pm
🌿 three 90 minute pregnancy classes - Thurs 6 to 7.30pm
🌿 end of cycle community gathering per 10 week cycle (school term)
NB: the three Pregnancy Yoga classes are also open to those not taking the 6 week course.
The intensive is an immersion in which you both enjoy all the benefits of the yoga and meditation practice as well as hearing in more depth the philosophical and practical yogic teachings, learning about and preparing for birth, engaging in transformative personal processes and preparing for motherhood (of your first baby or becoming mother of more) in a nourishing and wise way. See below for an outline of the course content.
You receive a printed manual and workbook as well as additional resources and are guided to establish a home practice. You will also have access to 2 recorded pregnancy yoga classes to do in your own time.
These cycles also offer the opportunity to go through the process in a supportive group of women, make new connections and feel supported. You can also include your partner in week 6.
The end of cycle community gathering (week 10) is a chance to relax and connect, share meditation, share food, and celebrate women in the community in the various stages of their passage.
Keep coming for the whole of your pregnancy by coming to the next cycle too (you hear the same themes with different ears in the different phases of pregnancy) and all the way up to the birth. There’s a special fee for that, which includes a one on one guidance session with Jai Ram.
From 7 weeks after the birth there’s the chance to continue beyond to Mama Baba Yoga with others from your group . You might even continue beyond that to women’s yoga!
There are discounts for repeat attendance and even a special pro rate fee for your whole pregnancy.
