There is probably no better way to prepare for childbirth than with yoga! Research shows that expectant moms who practice prenatal yoga experience “lighter” births, with less pain and shorter labor. A prenatal yoga practice during pregnancy allows the expectant mom to consciously focus on different areas of the body, which is so helpful during childbirth. Our emphasis will be on breathing and moving simultaneously, increased flexibility, improving muscle tone, balance, centering and relaxation. This class will also enhance general well being and the ability to bring oneself into a calm and relaxed state, connecting and bonding with your unborn baby. Wear comfortable, loose clothing. Bring a yoga mat and your doctor’s permission.
