If you’re pregnant and looking for antenatal classes in Plymouth, let us introduce you to Kate Sprague from Yemaya Birth, Baby & Wellbeing. Every Wednesday evening, Kate runs her Active Birthing classes here at Plymouth Wellbeing Centre in Estover.
What happens in an Active Birthing class
Active Birthing is a weekly class for mums-to-be from 14 weeks. It combines:
- gentle yoga movement
- breathing and hypnobirthing techniques
- active birth education
- relaxation
The aim is to help you prepare for birth physically and mentally, so you feel confident and able to make informed choices about your care.
Why Kate does it
My birth experience and postnatal period with my first son inspired me to help other mums prepare for birth physically and mentally through yoga, breathing and relaxation and to empower them to make confident and informed choices about their care.
What to bring
Each class lasts 1.5 hours. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a pillow for the relaxation, plus a drink.
Beaches, moors and woods 🌿
Kate’s happy place is outdoors with her husband, two sons and their dog, whether that’s at the beach, on the moors or in the woods. She also loves reading and spending time in her garden.
