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.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
