Prenatal Yoga & Movement Classes
GROUP CLASSES
Come join other pregnant people as you journey into parenthood. Prenatal yoga will prepare you for physical and emotional changes in pregnancy, birth and new parenthood. You will move through asana in order to strengthen your body, increase endurance and flexibility and promote optimal baby position for birth. You will practice breath awareness to quiet the mind and listen to your own inner wisdom. This class will help you trust the normal birth process. Give yourself this time to be with your tiny baby within. If you are looking for strength, community and self-care, we are here for you.

Private sessions with SHANA
Working 1 on 1, we can design private classes just for you and your baby!
You may choose to schedule either a one-time or a series of private yoga classes.
Yoga for Fertility
Yoga can offer a great deal of physical and emotional support along the journey to motherhood. In this class, we will explore a yoga practice to naturally enhance and support fertility. You will experience a complete practice intended to soften the abdomen, increase blood flow to the pelvis and open lines of energy throughout the body to create harmony and ease.
Meditation, breath practices and guided imagery will also be used to help relax the mind and open the heart in preparation for baby. Guidance will be given on which poses and techniques are most beneficial and which ones should be avoided at different stages of your monthly cycle or while undergoing IVF.
“She Gives You Space”
Shana is intelligent and caring and funny and welcoming. She will hold your baby and not flinch when it vomits on her bare feet, give you advice if you want it, or will just listen. She gives you a space to meet other women and share the good and not-so-good about pregnancy, birth and this whole motherhood adventure. Cannot recommend classes with her enough!
