Prenatal Yoga
IN-STUDIO
SUNDAYS: 9:00am
Prenatal Yoga is a gentle yoga class for expecting moms in all 3 trimesters. In this class, we will focus on centering the mind and relaxing the body in numerous ways. With a focus on breath control, this one-hour flow will take you through safe stretches and poses that will help your everyday movements as your body grows throughout the next few months.
Yoga Breathing for Labor
Practicing yogic breathing during your pregnancy can help you access deep breaths during labor. When used during a contraction, endorphins (the body's own natural pain reliever) are released and can assist your laboring experience. This class begins with a 5 minute affirmations centering in child’s pose, followed by a 15 min flow to get your heart rate up. Next, practice 20 minutes of guided breathing, followed by a 15 minute prenatal guided meditation. End this mindful hour by turning inward during savasana.
Open to students in all three trimesters.
