Aqua Natal @ Dorking Leisure Centre

On Thursday at 10.30am I ventured to the Aqua Natal at Dorking Leisure Centre.

I had visited the Aqua Natal once before (and wrote about it on my March 22nd post) and found it cancelled, as Rona the instructor was ill. This time I was more fortunate as not only was Rona there but my new found friend 'Francesca' was there too! We had arranged to meet up at Aqua Natal after meeting at the Early Pregnancy NCT class the week before.

So back to the Aqua Natal class... it cost £2.50 and was interesting. It lasted half an hour and was a little laid back for my liking but very focused on you and your baby. I found the funniest bit when we were doing our pelvic floor exercises at the side of the pool... to any innocent onlooker it would have appeared that we were just doing nothing but hanging on to the side for ten minutes! Of course it was all going on below the surface, lol... in more ways than one ;-)

I think I will go again as I like being in the water (and am considering a water birth) and can easily do some lengths afterwards to use up a bit more energy. Also the group seemed friendlier this time round so it's good for socialising!

Question is - can I drag my lazy a*se out of bed in the morning for it again!?
