Prenatal Yoga SEO

Definition

Prenatal yoga SEO: (1) **Query patterns**: "prenatal yoga [city]", "pregnancy yoga class near me", "antenatal yoga [city]", "pregnancy yoga second trimester [city]" — distinct from generic yoga queries with specific audience (pregnant women, typically 12+ weeks); (2) **RPYT certification**: Yoga Alliance Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher certification on hasCredential schema and landing page copy — RPYT-certified instructors have specialist prenatal training beyond general RYT; (3) **Content requirements**: what happens in a prenatal class, which trimester to start (usually second trimester, 12 weeks+), positions to avoid (supine after 20 weeks, deep twists, backbends), how it differs from regular yoga, whether a midwife or GP referral is needed (not typically, but mention it); YMYL-adjacent — pregnancy yoga content must be accurate about medical safety; (4) **Referral pathways**: midwives and NCT (National Childbirth Trust) refer pregnant clients to yoga classes — content addressing the referral context and what to tell a midwife when mentioning attending classes; (5) **Postnatal yoga**: separate page targeting new mothers returning to yoga — "postnatal yoga [city]", "yoga after c-section [city]", "mum and baby yoga [city]".

Why it matters for SEO
