Yoga and Movement Guidance

Body Preparation

Yoga has many benefits for both the mind and the body that are very beneficial for pregnant and new mothers. Through a combination of breath work, meditation, visualization and physical postures, called 'asanas', yoga helps you to find calm, and to balance and strengthen your body.

Yoga and natural movement will help you gain a better sense of your body, and how the mind can affect it. It can be extremely beneficial for you as an expecting mother to use body awareness and breath control to help you navigate your pregnancy and birth. As a new mother you will appreciate how yoga helps you more easily adapt to your new role as mother, combat postpartum blues, interact with your child and regain/build bodily strength. Mom and Baby yoga can help baby navigate and strengthen their new body too!
