If you think that belly dancing is just for women with flat abs, then you better think again.

Belly Dancing is no longer limited to women with bombastic figures, now even expectant mothers can join in the dance, since belly dancing is now an alternative to lamaze classes.

Taking belly dancing for birth preparation helps you relax and learn breathing techniques. It also helps:

- train the muscles in on your pelvis and helps you with the problem of Incontinence after giving birth;
- strengthens the stomach and back muscles, which is especially important when you reach the last term of pregnancy
- you also learn to control your body and other muscles

Don't worry if you end up getting a C-section in the end, you can always use your belly dancing skills to lose weight or entertain your husband ;-)
