The Yoga of Pregnancy: an Online Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training

Why I believe prenatal yoga teacher training is for everyone

There’s a lot of fear around pregnancy exercise. It was only in 2002 that the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology (ACOG) said it was ok for pregnant women to exercise daily!

If you feel a bit nervous when you have a pregnant woman in your class, you might be part of the problem, rather than part of the solution: educating and empowering moms-to-be to experience their fullest potential.
