Prenatal Yoga Center

Pregnancy is a unique and wondrous time in life. As a yoga center, this school helps parents and children openly explore the mind, body, and spirit. Using a three-pronged approach to their teaching, their classes address the aches and pains of pregnancy so students feel better each day, they foster a supportive community of friendship, and they integrate childbirth education into their classes to help the mother be more prepared and empowered for labor, delivery and motherhood.

They value:
Physical comfort: Highly trained and educated instructors cater to the anatomical, hormonal, and muscular changes which occur normally in the pregnant body by creating sequences which lessen discomfort so students feel better after each class.

Community: The school starts each class with “circle time”, a time where the women introduce themselves, say how far along they are, and discuss any aches and pains they would like to address in class. Pregnancy and postpartum periods carry such enormous physical and emotional changes; and this bonding time creates a springboard for long lasting friendships among students.

Childbirth Education: The school interweaves childbirth education themes and current birthing trends into their classes. Their intention is that the new mothers will feel more confident and prepared to make conscious, educated decisions during pregnancy, labor, delivery and motherhood.

As a resource center, they provide information and education for new parents as their family expands, offering various workshops and lectures that addresses common issues related to pregnancy, early childhood parenting, family dynamics and alternative healing. The school looks to create a quiet sacred space and community where you and your family can step out of the busy New York lifestyle to find warmth and comfort.
