COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
BIRTH PREPARATION IN THE GROUP / INDIVIDUAL PREPARATION
We offer our birth preparation classes for couples as a monthly intensive course, i.e. on Fridays from 4pm to 8pm and Saturdays from 10am to 4pm. Content includes information about pregnancy, birth, clinic procedures, postpartum and breastfeeding, breathing and relaxation exercises, and answering as many questions as possible. There is also a focus on the ways in which a woman can be supported by her partner during childbirth, birthing positions, and aspects of pain relief.
We want to prepare you for the birth of your child and give you confidence for the birth and the first time after. In special cases, such as premature labor or limited mobility, individual home birth preparation may be an alternative to a group class.

POSTNATAL RECOVERY COURSES
About 6 to 8 weeks after giving birth, it is important to strengthen the pelvic floor, abdomen, and back with specific exercises.
Pregnancy, with its shift in center of gravity and significant increase in weight, puts a lot of stress on various parts of the body.
In addition, stretching and relaxation exercises will help you feel better and relieve the neck and back muscles that are often tense from breastfeeding.

POSTNATAL / MAMA & BABY YOGA
Rebuild your physical strength and balance with us after the birth, while you take time to go inwards and get in touch with your thoughts, feelings and needs. Babies up to the age of one year are welcome.
The exercises involve the babies so that you have the opportunity to bond with each other and the children stay curious and have fun during the class (perhaps their extra weight is also an extra challenge for you).
We practise asanas, baby meditation and relaxation. All levels are welcome. You should have given birth at least 8 weeks ago and have been given the “go” by your doctor.
There is also the opportunity to have a cup of tea after the course and exchange ideas in a circle.

KIDS-YOGA
Kids yoga is a great way for little ones to connect with others, express their feelings and grow physically and mentally. And – it’s really fun!
This course is aimed at children aged 3 to 7+ years (parents are welcome to come along). We practise movement, talk to each other and find peace and relaxation.
Siblings are also welcome (we have childcare for younger babies and toddlers)!

QI GONG / NEI YANG GONG
Qi gong is an exercise method that translates as “working with qi (life energy)”.
Slow movements are used to create a conscious connection between body, breath and mind.
It forms one of the five pillars of traditional Chinese medicine and includes both physically moving Qi Gong with flowing movements and still Qi Gong without outwardly visible movement. In both forms, the exercises are performed with inner concentration and a focus on breathing, often in conjunction with inner images or mental pictures.
The “Nei Yang Gong – Inner Nourishing Qi Gong” series of exercises can be traced back historically to the Ming Dynasty (16th century). The Chinese doctor Liu Gui Zhen revised this system in the 1950s for therapeutic purposes and made it accessible to a wider public. His daughter Liu Ya Fei is currently the main proponent of this practice. She is the director of a Qi Gong and TCM clinic in Beidaihe, a renowned spa resort east of Beijing, where the Nei Yang Gong system is used for specific medical and therapeutic purposes.
