Prenatal/Postnatal Yoga

Yoga is great for any mother-to-be and new mom! As your body changes in preparation for birth, yoga helps you to focus on your pregnancy in a deeper way. As we move through postures and breath work you will grow more confident and comfortable in your body. Yoga is a wonderful way to help and guide your body as it changes. We will create the space and time you need to integrate the process of change that is taking place within you, and to gradually adjust your priorities and your lifestyle. Classes are appropriate for any stage of pregnancy and any level of yoga practice.

We will be focusing on: 
    • empowering yourself in the birthing process 
    • giving yourself the gift of time and space for self care and care for your baby 
    • easing the discomforts, aches, and fatigue caused by your changing body in pregnancy 
    • strengthening muscles and self awareness through the pregnancy and beyond 
    • working with the breath to calm the body and building a foundation of focused breathing for use in labor 
    • feeling good, safe, connected and at home in your ever-changing body 
    • building the support of a community of women who are sharing your journey 

Beginners to yoga will enjoy these classes as a way to connect with their bodies and those who are experienced practitioners will benefit from slowing down a little and honoring the changes in their bodies as they connect with other mothers. 

Once you have welcomed your bundle of joy into the world, this class is the perfect way to transition back into movement and to ease your way back into your yoga practice. 

Please receive your physician's or midwife's verbal "ok" to exercise prior to coming to your first class.
