Prenatal Yoga is about honoring changes in ourselves and our body as we connect to baby throughout these nine months. Pregnancy is a transitional time for women, when many physical & emotional changes take place. Prenatal Yoga Postures help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, keep the body flexible, and alleviate many common discomforts of pregnancy, while finding focus through balance and the breath to connect mother and baby. It also prepares the mother for a healthy, mindful, more natural approach to the challenges of labor and birth. Sharing information and knowledge with meditation/relaxation for a peaceful, calm state of mind is also the focus of these classes.
