Prenatal Partner Yoga is a unique and nurturing practice designed to strengthen the bond between expecting parents while preparing for the journey of childbirth. This supportive class combines gentle yoga poses, breathwork, and mindfulness techniques that couples can practice together to enhance physical comfort, emotional connection and mutual understanding.
Partners play an active role in assisting with poses, offering stability, and helping alleviate tension, making it a shared experience of relaxation and teamwork. Prenatal Partner Yoga also provides tools for labor and delivery, such as breathing exercises and supportive positions, fostering confidence and trust in as you approach the transformative moment of labor and delivery together.
Some of the benefits include:
* An increase in body awareness and ability to breathe through the
moment.
* Helps increase confidence in birth partners and their ability to
support the birthing mom.
* Partner assists allow for deeper release in yoga poses, allowing
for more effective relief from common issues that arise in the
pregnant body such as back pain, sciatica, leg cramps, leg
swelling, acid reflux, exhaustion, stiff muscles, and/or
insomnia.
* Releases oxytocin, which assists in shifting out of fight/flight mode and into the parasympathetic mode, thus increasing feelings of safety, relaxation, pleasure, and connection.
* Brings awareness to multiple areas of the body at once, helping to diffuse mental tension and refresh the nervous system.
* Creates a fun, expressive experience of unity and trust between partners, and creates a nurturing time and space to connect with your new baby.
This class is suitable for all levels and offers a beautiful way to connect with your partner and prepare couples with practical tools, building confidence as they approach birth as a team. *All participants must be registered separately.
