What you'll do

You've just found the best pregnancy class! This class is directed towards mums-to-be and the sooner you start, the faster the benefits are reaped for you and your baby. However, it's never too late to start even when you are in the last month of your trimester.

In this pregnancy class in Melbourne, you will be guided in how you can take better care of yourself and the foetus during the pregnancy period so you can have an easier birth process to a healthy baby.

During the class we will focus on:

Gentle exercises to relieve stress and anxiety;
Breathing techniques that assist in the brain and organ development of the foetus;
Stretching exercises to relieve back pain and encourage confident baby delivery;
Learn how to strengthen and nurture 'the baby bond' in order to actively participate in a healthier baby growth throughout your entire pregnancy.

These gentle exercises are easy to follow and all level of fitness are welcome, from beginners to advanced.

Enjoy French music therapy while in class, as this is proven to help you to go into a deeper state of relaxation helping your muscles to 'do what they are supposed to do', with minimal effort which in turns benefits your baby-foetus too.

All classes are held in English, though being a French woman, you will enjoy the beautiful French accent that Christina has. You are guaranteed to smile during the classes when she occasionally uses French words!

Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your first class, so that Christina can plan and personalise the class to your needs and harmonise the group.
