Congratulations on your baby!
Making time to practice a little bit of yoga allows you to hold space for your and your baby's health and emotional well-being during the amazing journey that is pregnancy.
Holistic Prenatal Yoga helps you focus more deeply on your pregnancy. You will feel more in touch with yourself, more connected and you will be reassured that the power to give birth and to nurture your baby once it is born is within you and nowhere else.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need previous yoga experience to practice prenatal yoga?
Not at all. This Prenatal Yoga Program is accessible to all mommas to be, regardless of your previous experience.
Each session is designed to strengthen, relax you and get you in tune with baby and body without over-straining.

You can join the Holistic Prenatal Yoga Series from your first trimester (although you may have more energy as of your second trimester) and be part of it until it feels comfortable for you in the later stages of your pregnancy. Our weekly classes hold space for every stage of your pregnancy.
What if I have special condition (diastasis recti, pelvic girdle pain, etc.)?
I highly recommend you book a free consult call with me so I can understand a bit more how I can best help you on your journey.
