Why This Training?

Pregnancy... a time of amazing intensity, expansion and adjustment. Teaching Prenatal Yoga is so much more than just Do's and Don'ts. The Pregnant Person needs teachers who can confidently speak to their needs, provide a place of comfort and support as well as show them how to access an inner strength and wisdom. We as a culture are waking up to the importance of pre and postnatal health and this training will have you front and center in that conversation.

Our prenatal yoga teacher training fuses scientific knowledge of the pregnant body with safe practices of dynamic, meditative and nurturing movements as well as offering holistic approach with a spiritual thread for a layered learning experience.
