Prenatal Yoga

Bringing the miracle of mindfulness to the miracle of birth.

Pre-natal yoga is a wonderful way to exercise, connect with yourself and your baby, and prepare for the journey of birth and motherhood. Our classes are taught in the style of Whole Birth™ Yoga, developed by Robin Sale based in part on the mindfulness technique of Jon Kabat-Zinn. A typical class consists of one hour of sharing and discussion, generally surrounding a theme related to pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, one hour of yoga, and a 15-minute deep relaxation. This format allows you to build deep relationships with other mothers-to-be, nurture yourself through your pregnancy, and identify and plan for what is important to you in your birth experience. Many mothers express that yoga was the single most effective way of preparing for birth.

A series of six classes is $90. A single dropin class is $20. See the Payment and Cancellation Policies page for additional payment information.

New classes are now forming. However, it is ok to join a class already in session so don't delay, start today. For course start dates and times please see the instructor's schedule. For more information and to enroll please call Jeanna at 408-275-1250 (Jeanna@mindfulmama.net).

Prenatal yoga classes are lead by certified instructor Jeanna Lurie. For more information about prenatal yoga see Jeanna's comments on the Frequently Asked Questions page.

And after you birthing experiance be sure to signup for the Mom & Baby Yoga course. This is a wonderful way to extend the relationships with the mothers-to-be you met in the Prenatal Yoga classes.
