Frequently asked questions about birthing courses, pregnancy courses, and pregnancy yoga in Amsterdam

• We can put you on the waiting list. Occasionally, someone drops out.
• You can also choose to register for a later pregnancy yoga course. You risk missing the last lesson(s). This doesn’t have to be a problem, as we have recordings of all lessons available. You’ll get access to these on the day your course begins, so you won’t miss any important information.
• If it’s your turn on the waiting list and you’ve registered for a later pregnancy yoga group, we’ll simply transfer you.

After registration, you’ll get access to the digital calendar. Here you can swap lessons or cancel your attendance. This way, you can make up missed lessons with another group.

The topic of each lesson is the same at every location. It’s best if you choose the same lesson to make up. If this isn’t possible, you can choose any pregnancy yoga lesson. You might attend the same lesson twice, but that’s not a problem. This way, you still get your movement, breathing, and relaxation practice.

We can check if there’s another date for a partner class that you both can attend. To swap the partner class, please contact us. As a last resort, you can also attend the partner class with your mother, sister, or close friend. All information is also available in the online learning environment, so you can prepare for the birth with your partner at home. If neither option works, we can arrange a private partner class (this involves additional costs).

You can participate with someone else and review everything in the online environment with your partner. There’s also the option of taking a private partner class, though this involves additional costs.
