Alja's Yoga voor You

I followed a pregnancy yoga course with Alja and I can recommend this to every pregnant woman! I used the breathing techniques a lot during the contractions, but especially the self-confidence that I gained from the course helped me a lot. I was a lot less nervous about the delivery.

Alja gives pregnancy yoga in small groups, in an attic space in Westerbork. The participants are not that far in their pregnancy and Alja adjusts the content of the lesson to the farthest. The lessons last 1 hour, after which a cup of tea is drunk together. At the start of every lesson, Alja takes the time to ask each participant how she is doing. This is a good (and necessary) habit. What I have missed during this moment is empathy. After naming physical discomforts, Alja regularly responded with a joke, or with comments along the lines of "it's a matter of adaptation." This made it unpleasant for me to honestly share how I am doing. Shifting lessons is possible in consultation with the entire group; this is handled very flexibly. Whether or not to move classes during holidays or public holidays is also determined in consultation. Point of attention: Alja's Yoga for You is not affiliated with the association for accredited yoga teachers. As a result, some health insurers do not reimburse yoga classes.

For me the pregnancy yoga was very pleasant to feel how your body enters and relaxes. It is also a good preparation for the birth with, among other things, breathing techniques, exercises and theory. You will be taken into account if you have complaints and tips will be given.

Fine pregnancy yoga classes in small groups. The lessons are adapted to problems or complaints that the participants indicate. Thank you for sharing the experiences and tips with the other participants.

Very nice lessons is a small group
