Your yoga journey is calling…..join our community from 12 weeks gestation and up to the time of your birth.

The perfect time to do Yoga is now!

Gentle exercise that fosters strength but with softness, resilience, and calm. Our pregnancy classes are designed to nurture a positive and open mind and body throughout the changing stages of a pregnancy.

All pregnant people can attend this class. Kel, brings lightness, fun, technique and education to her classes, making them accessible to everyone. Kel is a mother and wife and lives with her family in the Adelaide hills. She is a fierce warrior for self-acceptance. Particularly encouraging women, mothers to embrace the body they are in. The world needs us to step into our own unique and authentic selves, to be in our own power, not trying to squeeze into something that is not true to our own being.

Kel is especially passionate about educating women about their body during pregnancy, birth and beyond through yoga. She wants to help guide women on this most sacred journey and to encourage them to step into their power as life givers. There is nothing more phenomenal than bringing forth life!

Prenatal Yoga in Mount Barker for all stages of pregnancy

Classes run continuously, start any time, and continue up to your birthing day. Our teacher Kel provides not only the yoga practice but a welcoming and specialised space for women to share experiences and enrich their journey towards birth with education, tools, and like-minded community.

What are the benefits of Pregnancy Yoga?

• Learning to relax deeply: Unwind and restore your energy with specialised yoga sequences and a focused atmosphere
• Connect with your body while connecting with other pregnant women
• Practice cultivates confidence, dissolving fear and heightening a positive path towards birthing
• Practicing yoga relieves, relaxes and strengthens – creating more internal space, and making adjustments for your changing shape, and your baby
• This quiet time in yoga practice, shared with other women enriches the growing connection with yourself and your growing baby
• Techniques, such as utilising the power of the breath, meditation, and visualisation are incorporated in these yoga classes

What should I expect from the classes?

• Opening the body and preparing for the journey towards birth
• Building strength, mobility, and balance – physically, mentally and emotionally.
• Learning tools such as positions, pranayama (breath work), and mudras (hand seals), to help you navigate not only birth but also the postnatal time
• Learning and sharing to give you the key to your birth power.

Postnatal Yoga with Kel Mittal

Mums and Bubs Yoga

Time: Fridays 11:00am – 12:00pm

Mums n Bubs is a class to begin moving your body after birth in a safe and gentle way. Each class will incorporate some sharing time, yoga poses, breath work & relaxation. You are welcome to bring your baby (up until they are crawling). The space will give you the opportunity to connect with other women also walking the motherhood journey.

Benefits:

• Move your new postpartum body in a safe & gentle way
• Connect with other mothers in the local community
• It is a safe space to feed your baby, change the nappy, attend to your baby etc. There is no judgement as everyone is going through this journey of motherhood as well. So please don’t feel anxious about your baby crying during the class & ‘disrupting’ the class

What to Expect:

• To meet other mothers on the motherhood journey
• Breathwork
• To do asanas (yoga poses) suitable for the postpartum body. Different options will be given depending on how many weeks postpartum students are

What to Bring:

• Essentials for baby (nappy, wipes, bottle etc)
• Mat/blanket for baby to lay on if you have, otherwise you are welcome to use a blanket from the studio
• Please note – NO PRAMS – the studio is on the first floor and there is only stair access. There is no safe and secure place to leave prams at the bottom of the staircase either. So please use a baby carrier or carry your baby

All babies are welcome until they are crawling. Women are welcome to attend after their postnatal health check. This is usually 6 weeks after vaginal birth and 8-10 weeks after C-section
