Livestream (zoom)
Yoga teachers earn 3 hours Yoga Alliance CE
Wednesday, July 17, 2024
6:00pm - 9:00pm (Eastern Time)
Registration now open.
This livestream workshop is ideal for non-prenatal certified yoga teachers, and expecting yoga students who want to learn more about pregnancy, how pregnancy affects the yoga practice during each trimester, and important asana considerations that many yoga teachers are surprised they do NOT know in order to safely modify for pregnancy.
We will take a comprehensive look at the anatomical and physiological changes of pregnancy to reveal exactly WHY various modifications are needed, and review a handful of common yoga poses with this new perspective. You will come away with a sense of awe for the childbearing year and a fuller understanding of how to offer safe options for pregnant students. You will also have the opportunity to ask your questions.
