We practice yoga during this amazing and transitional time in a woman's life to bring her a sense of peace, tranquility, and a connection between herself and her baby. We use yoga to encourage the connection between movements and breathe. The movement of the body and the breath are one, continuously flowing and synchronized. When pregnant mother learns to link their breath and movement they create a powerful energy which connects them back to themselves. Focusing on this connection is one of the goals of prenatal yoga.

​

Typically, we hold our breath during time of panic, fear or anxiety...things that a pregnant woman might experience during pregnancy or labor. Our aim is to help moms facilitate the connection with their breath so they can use it at any time they need. Yoga teaches us that even when we are in poses or situations when we might not necessarily be comfortable, we can always come back to the breath. When a pregnant woman fully comprehends this, it will help her in labor tremendously. Women can learn to release fear and pain with the connection to her breath.

Yoga encourages us to allow the breath to be the motivation in our movement, to form the link of breath and movement cultivating energy to flow within us.
