Good Prenatal Yoga Videos

I reviewed a number of online videos showing asanas (poses) for pregnant women.  Some seem downright dangerous (backbend at 9 months? no thanks), but others were really good. These are some of my favorites.

Prenatal Yoga

Respected yoga expert and mother Shiva Rea designed this program specifically for pregnancy. Safe stretching and strength-building exercises increase energy and stamina, and develop concentration for labor and delivery. Includes modifications for each trimester. 60 minutes.

Shiva Rea also has a post partum yoga video at a href=”http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006A9SCU?ie=UTF8&tag=netincomenow-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0006A9SCU”>Shiva Rea: Postnatal Yoga
, but I don’t know how necessary it is. Just getting back into your regular yoga at a lower intensity seems reasonable to me. But her videos are great. You can see part of it below.

Postpartum Yoga with Shiva Rea

Yoga instructor and mother Shiva Rea shares her gentle, recuperative set of post natal yoga poses that help new mothers restore muscle tone and strength after pregnancy.

And this series is good, specifically geared to each trimester.
