Note: This is an online-only workshop. Recordings are available for 1 week after the workshop in case you can’t join live or want to revisit the content. Birth is contextual, natural, and is a different experience for every body. However, within all of these inherent differences, we share the same hopes, dreams, and fears surrounding it: we all want to have a happy and healthy birth (and a happy and healthy baby!). Designed specifically for people who are expecting, Birthing Bodies seeks to create a frame and foundation for a positive birth experience, however that may look and feel to you. Whether or not you have an existing yoga practice, the practice of prenatal yoga provides a unique avenue to cultivate the strength, trust, and confidence desired to support the remarkable nature of birth. Utilizing rhythm, ritual, and relaxation, we’ll explore how to use prenatal yoga to support your individual needs, create personal toolkits for birth, and together learn to surrender the process of birth. We’ll also cover: - Bodily changes (bones, muscles, hormones) - Specific poses to avoid/take precaution in yoga classes - Pelvic Floor and Transverse Abdominal Toning - Birth plans and Framework for Improvisation - General Coping skills for birth - And so much more! Both sessions will include a full (and we promise fun) prenatal yoga class! This workshop is open to anyone expecting or people interested in deepening their understanding of prenatal yoga.
