Pregnancy Can Feel Like a Lot
Pregnancy can be beautiful, but it can also be uncomfortable, emotional and overwhelming.
Your body is changing. Your sleep may be disturbed. Your pelvis, back or hips may be aching. Your mind might be full of questions about birth, feeding, motherhood and how life is going to change.
These classes are a weekly pause.
A space to breathe, move gently, soften your body, calm your nervous system and reconnect with yourself and your baby.
You do not need to be flexible.
You do not need yoga experience.
You do not need to arrive feeling calm.
You can come exactly as you are.
This is not fitness yoga.
It is pregnancy support through movement, breath, relaxation and birth preparation.
