When it comes to pregnancy and exercise, Yoga Movement’s founder Alicia Pan shares, “It is important not to overheat the body, as well as overstretch or overwork areas such as the hips. Always go for supported variations while doing poses such as deep lunges, especially in the later trimesters.”

“I think it is important to keep the entire body strong, so low-intensity weight training is always helpful. Of course, getting the green light from your doctor is key – and if you’ve never done a specific type of movement or training before, then pregnancy is not the right time to start!”
