During the  pre and post natal period, women need special attention in their yoga practice in order to guide them through this incredible transition.

The course covers everything from modified  postures, breath work, vocal toning & meditation, how to creatively create sequences that support mums to be - physically, emotionally and spiritually. 

Children + Teen Yoga is fundamentally one of the most important and vital areas of Yoga Teaching. Teaching our children and youth will help to create a profound change in our world. Planting the seed in our children will allow these children to begin to feel the benefits of yoga without words or explanations just feelings!
