Embodied Birth

Prenatal Yoga Series

Our five-week prenatal yoga series offers the opportunity to connect with the person you're becoming, the life you're growing, and a community of others embarking on this new threshold together. We'll work on building strength to support the demands of pregnancy and labor, coming into alignment, and finding greater access to breath. And we'll cap it off with a dreamy savasana, because pregnancy is basically like running a 40-week marathon.

We believe there is no right way to birth. Our classes are non-dogmatic and are aimed at deepening your connection with yourself while building a coping mindset so you can handle whatever comes your way.

What’s included:

  • Five, 90-minute yoga classes, including optional time to connect over tea after class 

  • Weekly check-ins sharing the joys and challenges of pregnancy with others who get it

  • Themed classes offering opportunities for reflection, connecting with baby, and connecting with yourself as a parent

  • Pregnancy- and birth-specific movements that empower you to find ease, strength, and balance in your body at any stage of pregnancy

  • Access to a WhatsApp group to start building your local parenting community beyond class sessions

  • Herbal extras for pregnancy and postpartum

“When we enter the world of birth, we step across the threshold from the mundane to the sacred. Pregnancy and birth are a space between worlds — a liminal space — a place where you are no longer not a parent and not yet one either.”


– Britta Bushnell, Transformed by Birth
