Yoga is so often recommended to pregnant and postpartum people as a safe and beneficial form of movement, and for good reason! Beyond the mental and typically thought of physical benefits, the breath and movement practices of yoga are wonderful tools for understanding and maintaining optimal health and functionality of the Pelvic Floor. This workshop and class is designed to educate students on the basic anatomy and physiology of the Pelvic Floor, how it functions during pregnancy, birth and postpartum, and how yoga and breathwork can benefit overall pelvic health! The first hour of this event will be a workshop style: lots of education and discussion. The second hour of this event will be a yoga class that incorporates all of our new Pelvic Floor learnings!
Investment: $75 registration inlcudes the one hour workshop and one
hour yoga class. Once you've attended the workshop you may return
for the class only portion as many times as you'd like.
