Teaching Pregnant

For those of you teachers out there wondering if you can build a family and teach and the same time, I am here to tell you it is possible.  You can continue to teach (under normal circumstances) throughout your pregnancy. Here are a few things to remember:
1.  You won't be able to jump high.
2. Stretching it a wonderful thing for you and baby...just don't over do it and pull a muscle.
3. Piles might take a little longer to come out of.
4. Teachers have chairs for a reason....use it.
5. Leg extensions won't be as high due to the obstacle in your torso.
6. Your balance will be off so don't do anything risky.
7. Pet students make WONDERFUL examples so you don't have to demonstrate everything.

Keep dancing. Just take it easy. Enjoy your changing body while you do what you love.
