Highly Recommend

Louise has had the MASSIVE challenge of making pregnancy yoga accessible through lockdown and beyond. I started the classes on zoom and Louise really thought about accessibility and opened to studio making it safe but continued to provide access online due to capacity limitations. The class is focused on wellbeing for both baby and i and preparing for birth. The classes are professional well prepared and thoroughly enjoyable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
