Prepare for birth through our live, virtual Partner Prenatal Yoga Workshop. Given the constantly changing situation around birth support during this time, birthing people are often facing an unknown around what support will look like for them when their birth arrives.
Through a virtual partner practice, this workshop will offer you the opportunity to explore the intersecting pathways of support during labor and childbirth and yoga. Partner Prenatal Yoga will offer the opportunity to explore the physical practice of yoga through warm-up poses and partner yoga poses. The session will also include yoga practices such as breath and meditation as an opportunity to find connection and support.
Through thought provoking questions, simple massage, and time to share one-on-one with your partner, you will have much needed time to connect around the upcoming birth and will also leave the workshop with tools for managing labor together and using the tools of movement and breath that yoga provide to support you through your labor.
This partner workshop is open to pregnant people and their partners (partner can mean anyone: spouse, partner, doula, friend, or anyone who will be providing birth support during childbirth) and to all levels of yoga experience. No prior yoga instruction necessary.
While this workshop may be more applicable for those late in their 2nd trimester and into their 3rd trimester, all are welcome as it works with your schedule. Plan to join us for Partner Prenatal Yoga during your pregnancy––a great “date” for couples and also a wonderful way to connect with someone on your birth support team.
Remote participation offers a unique opportunity to be guided in a partner practice in your own home!
