Yoga Tree will be offering a 6 week pre-natal workshop, with each class being 1 hr and 45 minutes in duration. During that time, the class will be split between pre-natal yoga, and child-birth education. Each week will follow a progression of poses to focus on during pregnancy, with the last two weeks focusing on yoga and delivery.

The class will be open for women in their second or third trimester who have received the consent of their doctor to practice yoga. Spouses/birthing partners are welcomed to join the workshop.

Along with the asana practice, each week will have a topic and couples will be encouraged to share their own experiences with each other. Topics will range from myths and facts about pregnancy and labor, medicated vs. natural labor, the different stages of labor, breastfeeding and post-delivery care. The group will be encouraged to develop a communal bond where they can share their knowledge with each other, as they go through the experience of pregnancy and labor.

 

Benefits of Prenatal Yoga Include:

Increases overall strength, flexibility and well-being.

Stimulates your organ systems, promoting the circulation of blood and oxygen.

Focuses your attention inward through imagery and meditation promoting a heightened state of physical and emotional well-being.

Reduces low back pain and sciatica--teaching proper body alignment.

Reduces swelling and inflammation around your joints, and aids in digestion. The combination of the physical or "asana" portion of yoga with the emotional and spiritual component, reduces anxiety and helps women experience the miracle and empowerment of pregnancy.

Please book your classes early in your second trimester as they fill up quickly. You can book over the phone (905.882.9642) and charge the classes to your credit card, or you can pay in person with cash or a debit card.
