Yoga comes from the Greek term yoke, which means to connect.
Yoga enhances your life and your pregnancy experience in a way similar to African dance.

The combination of African dance and yoga can be one of the most enjoyable experiences you have throughout your pregnancy. Dancing and yoga will make you feel strong and capable. The rhythm of the drums of Africa connects you with the rhythm of your baby s heartbeat.
