The time has come! In order to help save my sanity and streamline the process for my prenatal yoga clients, effective June 4th, 2018 - I will be using Schedulicity as a scheduling software exclusively for my prenatal yoga clients.
Being pregnant can feel like a full time job. From doctors appointments, childbirth education classes and weekly self-care activities, I get it. Coming to yoga class weekly can be challenging to fit in our busy schedules. I recommend these three poses to practice daily.

I know what you're thinking. "But I can barely dress myself and make it out of the house!" You are overwhelmed with nighttime feedings, changing diapers, adjusting to a new routine and not to forget the postpartum healing your body is doing! Adding a new child to the family can be an overwhelming and sometimes stressful transition. Whether you're adding your first child or fifth child, every transition is different.
What is Mom and Baby Yoga? Mom and Baby Yoga is a postnatal yoga workout that you do with your baby. Babies can hang out on the rug adjacent to your mat or you can setup baby next to your mat. Baby may also be incorporated in poses (up to mom's discretion).
