Blissful Birth Bellydance
Bellydance has a long been known as a birthing dance as many of the movements in bellydance mimic innate birthing movements. Bellydance is a safe and non-strenuous form of exercise. Some of the major benefits of bellydancing in pregnancy include freeing the pelvis, opening the hips, strengthening the legs, and relieving many discomforts often felt in pregnancy. The swaying & undulating motions offer a natural aid to the birthing process, learning to move with the waves of contractions instead of against them. Bellydance helps to develop grace & balance and also provides you an enjoyable way to embrace the beauty of your beguiling belly and connect with your baby.
This event is offered on the first Sun of each month and it includes prenatal yoga, and a guided deep relaxation & meditation at the end.
Oct 3rd, Nov 7th, Dec 5th 1-3 pm Please pre-register so we know who's coming. $25 if paid 7 days prior, $30 at the door. Taught by Adriana. Find out more about Adriana on our Teachers page.
