It provides an opportunity for her to consciously integrate the mental, emotional and physical changes during this period in her life. A good prenatal yoga class will create an environment in which she can access her body's inherent birthing wisdom and trust her intuition, build her strength, confidence, and cultivate patience. As prenatal yoga teachers we can help empower women on their journeys towards motherhood and enable them to meet the challenges of that journey with awareness, courage and gentleness. This 28 hour training is designed for; teachers who are interested in teaching their own prenatal classes, teachers who want to simply gain more knowledge about yoga and pregnancy and practitioners working closely with women during their pregnancies and labours. The training will cover the following: - The anatomy and physiology of pregnancy - An exploration of the emotional and psychological aspects of pregnancy - The anatomy and physiology of childbirth - Yoga asanas appropriate for pregnancy and their modifications - Visualization, meditation, breath work and vocal toning for pregnancy and labour The training will also include workshops on : - Prenatal Nutrition - A Midwive's Perspective and Osteopathy and Pregnancy. All students will be required to participate, observe and assist in 6 of Sasha's Prenatal Yoga Classes. To register please contact the front desk.
