Hi all,


I have just started my second trimester of pregnancy, so can now happily start exploring more exciting exercise options than sitting on my sofa rating my nausea out of 10!!! Can anyone recommend a good pregnancy pilates or yoga class in ED. We are very fortunate to have loads of options available to us here, but was hoping for some firsthand recommendations.


I would also like to know of any other pregnancy safe exercise classes that anyone can recommend.


Thanks everyone

I've been going to pre & post natal Pilates at ESPH on Lordship Lane. It's on Mondays from 12-1 and I think it's about ?10 a class. I bought a block of 10 lessons. There's no expiry date on the lessons and they can be used for any of their classes, so I'm planning to keep buying in blocks and after I have the baby who knows I might even go and do some spinning or something if I have any left!


I went to Pre-natal Pilates at Push Studios on Blackwater Street for a bit too. It was on Thursdays in the evenings (I think abnout 7pm), which was much less convenient for me as I already have 2 kids. That was the main reason why I stopped going there and went to ESPH instead. Also, if you buy a block of classes they only last for 3 months which isn't ideal given you can't do Pilates for 6-8 weeks after the birth. It's also about ?10 a class.


I have to say the set-up at ESPH is much more professional than at Push Studios as well, in my opinion.

I go to a great pregnancy yoga class on a Sunday evening at 7pm (used to be Sunday morning at 10.30am but she's just changed it) it's in Blackwater Court off Lordship Lane but not Push Studios - called Bespoke Space I think. It's run by Salome who is really good - here is the website www.stillspaceyoga.co.uk

Yes, I'm sure you can to both esph post natal one and also PUSH - worth ringing to check of course but from memory you can, as long as the baby is still not crawling etc.

    • I see some possibly overloaded grandparents, with mobility issues, trying to help their overloaded daughter. They put some feelers out in anticipation of having to look after their grandson who, it seems, it extraordinarily smart and requires extra stimulation. A big ask all round. That they weren't yet aware of exact dates hardly warrants your complaints of time-wasting. 
    • The shops selling gifts, interior stuff and clothes all sell different gifts, interiors stuff and clothes. They don't all have identical items, which would be ridiculous. It's a  completely different situation. The coffee shops and restaurants mostly also have different vibes, different food etc and cater to different tastes and pockets. The two empanada places have virtually identical displays of identical looking empanadas. I don't think anyone has suggested this move is "malicious" - that would make it even worse. Cheeky, yes, given the proximity to the first shop. I agree this is good advertising, though most people in ED probably don't look at the ED Forum (I stand to be corrected). Re the "organic grocer", if it's the one on the same side as Chango, yes their snacks are very tasty.  Unfortunately we were short changed there on several occasions when calling in late at night, and were once asked  a ridiculous price for a few items (with no price tickets on the snacks) so we don't go there any more. Hopefully these were all genuine mistakes, and hopefully things have improved since their refurb.
    • Makes sense though… or do you not think so? Can’t book anything without dates!!
