Prenatal & Women’s Health Yoga

Prenatal Yoga is a gentle yet powerful yoga class specifically designed for the pregnant woman's body, however, all women will benefit. The pregnant body is quite different from the non-pregnant body and there are some specific alterations and modifications to yoga that help the pregnant mother have a more healthy, strong and safe pregnancy. I teach a strengthening flow-style class that will include some breathing exercises useful for pregnancy and birth and will leave you feeling calm and peaceful. It will also help you to incorporate correct body alignment, breathing and movement into your daily lives so that you may be able to enjoy the many positive benefits that follow.

Meditation is an essential part of a well-rounded yoga practice. I incorporate short meditation practices into the end of my yoga classes, but I earnestly encourage all women to discover how daily personal meditation can bring great peace and rejuvenation into their pregnancies and lives. Bringing the soul into unity with The Divine through yoga and meditation has been and remains to be the most blissful, challenging, expansive, and peace-inducing journey of my life. I feel it an honor and a joy to share in this journey with all like-minded seekers of enlightenment.

My current Wednesday class at Relaxation Fitness is designed for women at all stages of life. With all of the changes that women's bodies go through, whether that be from pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum, or regular monthly cyclical changes or menopause, we face the challenge of working with our bodies through these changes. This class focuses specifically on women's bodies, women's cycles and how we can have optimal health physically, mentally and spiritually. We will work on how to breathe, sit, stand and move in alignment so that these practices can be utilized throughout your day, not just for class. We also incorporate pelvic floor exercises that will target many of the physical and emotional issues women face surrounding the womb center and pelvic floor. Meditation and mindfulness with the use of relaxation and crystal singing bowl will also be offered in most classes. All women of all ages are welcome to join in this gentle, yet strengthening class curated just for your body.
