Perinatal Exercise and Wellbeing courses

Perinatal Exercise and Wellbeing courses
Thank you for your interest in our new postnatal and antenatal courses.

The courses are aimed at those who are currently inactive or less active than usual and would like to change this and improve their mental health.

Our antenatal course is for anyone who is pregnant.

Our postnatal course is for anyone who has given birth in the last year. We ask that participants have had their 6-week post-birth check before joining.

Both courses will offer:

* Support to be more physically active and improve mental health.

* A wellbeing workshop and gentle yoga-based exercise session each week.

* Discussion and tools around managing mental health and wellbeing during pregnancy and beyond.

* An introduction to content from the Best Beginnings Baby Buddy app.

The course is currently run online via Zoom. It runs from 10am-12pm for four weeks.

The next postnatal course starts on 6th June.

The next antenatal course starts on 11th July.

PhysicalActivity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q)

For most of us, taking part in physical activity will benefit our physical and mental health. The PAR-Q is designed to identify the small number of adults (age 15-69) for whom physical activity might be inappropriate, or those who should have medical advice concerning the type of activity that would be most suitable for them. *

	Yes	No
Has your doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and that you should only do physical activity recommended by a doctor?
Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
In the past month, have you had chest pain when you were not doing physical activity?
Do you lose your balance because of dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?
Do you have a bone or joint problem that could be made worse by a change in your physical activity ?
Is your doctor currently prescribing drugs (for example, water pills)for your blood pressure or heart condition?
Do you know of any other reason why you should not do physical activity?

If you answered YES to one or more question: If you have not recently done so, we advise that you consult your doctor by telephone or in person before increasing your physical activity. Tell the doctor which questions you answered ‘yes’ to, or present your PAR-Q copy. Seek advice from your doctor as to your suitability for:

1. Unrestricted physical activity starting off easily and progressing gradually

2. Restricted or supervised activity to meet your specific needs, at least on an initial basis
Assumption of risk

I have read, understood and accurately completed this questionnaire. I confirm that I am voluntarily engaging in exercise, that I understand what the activity involves and that my participation involves a risk of injury. I agree to inform my exercise tutor of any changes in my health which may affect my participation.
