  This hands-on workshop will look at the miracle of childbirth from a yogini's perspective and provide valuable tools to help you through your pregnancy and labor. The yoga practice outlined is ideal for someone who is pursuing natural childbirth, but can certainly also be applied to someone who is planning a medicated birth. We will learn and practice various asanas that can be useful throughout pregnancy, labor and post-partum, as well as learn specific pranayama, meditation, and guided relaxation techniques that can have a profound impact on pain perception and the degree to which you may feel prepared to cope with the amazing and challenging experience that is childbirth.
