Prenatal Yoga
Pregnancy is another journey in life and one that shows us how strong our bodies are and offers a woman the opportunity to nurture, slow down and to consciously welcome a new life. Prenatal yoga offers postures to strengthen, to alleviate discomforts in low back, pelvis, neck and shoulders, and positions that will help in labor too. Prenatal yoga is not just an adaptation of your usual yoga practice, it is a place to connect to your child, to your breath, to other women, and your power to birth with knowledge and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How old does my baby need to be?
You can come to class as soon as you are ready to get out of the house. Often women will wait until they have their 6 week appointment with their midwife or doctor. But every woman, parent, and baby is different.
Can I bring my baby if they are crawling or walking?
Yes. I will set the room up with appropriate toys and space for babies to roam and for those tiny babies to be out of harms reach.
Is this a postnatal class?
Yes. Limber Babies is designed for both mom and baby. We will focus on postures that help build and regain core strength and postures that relieve tension and stress from the daily challenges of having a baby.
How do babies like class?
Every baby is different but most babies love being involved in whatever you do. I help incorporate babies into class as much as possible. Often we sing songs, move their bodies with ours, and learn to breathe together.
Can I nurse/feed my baby during class?
Absolutely. Please bring whatever you need to make your babies experience the best it can be. Some babies will sleep through the whole class, nurse most of the time, play, fuss, cry, smile, and or relax. As a teacher I am here to instruct you and be a pair of helping hands.

Are classes online or in person?
As of right now all prenatal classes are being held In-Studio and Zoom. Limber Babies is only In-Studio.
When should I start doing Prenatal Yoga?
You may start prenatal yoga at any point in your pregnancy. Some woman like to start after 12 weeks once their nausea has subsided and others like to come during the first trimester to help with the physical and emotional changes. Any time is a good time.
What is different about Prenatal Yoga and a regular yoga class?
In a prenatal class you will learn adaptations to postures to accommodate for your changing body. The postures that are chosen are supportive to the pregnant woman for maintaining strength and flexibility and to learn postures that can be used for optimal positioning for birth. The other big part of prenatal is the community of other pregnant women in class.
Do I need to sign up or can I just show up for class?
Our prenatal classes are just like drop-in classes. Please sign up online to save a spot in the studio or to get your zoom code ahead of time. You may sign on to class or arrive early so you can talk with other expecting mothers in class.
Should I eat before coming to class?
Always a good idea to have some light snack in your body before coming to class. Some women even get hungry during class and I encourage to nourish yourself when you feel the need. Babies are growing and you need to keep well hydrated and fed too.
What do I need to for class?
Yourself, a yoga mat, blanket, a bottle of water, and possibly a light snack. If you have any of these other props these could be helpful too: yoga blocks, or a step stool, folding chair or kitchen table chair, massage ball or tennis ball, strap or scarf, and a bolster or pillows to rest on.
Can I do a regular Yoga Class?
Yes, if you had been practicing yoga before you conceived then I usually tell woman they can continue doing their practice with a few adaptations. Your body will really let you know when the postures are no longer serving you. I suggest to refrain fromm deep twists, back-bends, and strong core strengthening. If you are not sure how to adapt then this is a good time to come to a prenatal class.
