A NEW CLASS FOR MUMS-TO-BE IN ABU DHABI

Mums-to-be in Abu Dhabi have a new option for keeping fit and strong through their pregnancies with the launch of a Prenatal Fusion Workout at Roccoforte Hotel Abu Dhabi.

The class begins with 45 minutes of Yoga Natal, before moving into the indoor pool for 45 minutes of Aqua Natal. The workout is safe for all trimesters of pregnancy.

The yoga class combines breathing, pelvic floor exercises, and strength-building exercises to improve flexibility and prepare for labour, whilst the Aqua Natal class builds resistance in the water, soothes back pain, and provides active movement to stay fit and healthy in a safe and comfortable format.

Repeated studies show that staying active in pregnancy is good for mother and baby, improving sleep, reducing stress and anxiety, decreasing chance of pregnancy symptoms including lower back pain and shortness of breath, and increasing strength, flexibility, and endurance of muscles for childbirth. So what better excuse do you need to don your maternity leggings and swimsuit and head down?
