Prenatal Teacher Training Course

Prenatal Teacher Training course caters specifically to yoga instructors, doctors, gynecologists, obstetricians, nutritionists, physiotherapists, and trainers. While prenatal yoga training is prevalent, there’s often a gap in the comprehensive knowledge of yoga before, during, and after childbirth among health professionals. This oversight extends to yoga teachers lacking familiarity with pregnancy physiology and medical aspects, contributing to hesitancy in recommending or teaching prenatal yoga. This course aims to bridge these gaps, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of effective and safe guidance during the unique phases of pregnancy

In prenatal and postpartum yoga, it’s crucial to focus on gentle and supportive practices. For pregnancy, emphasize poses that enhance flexibility, promote relaxation, and relieve discomfort. Incorporate deep breathing exercises (pranayama’s) to help manage stress and connect with the breath.

Address the importance of Yoga practice to pelvic health during and after pregnancy. Encourage modified asanas to accommodate the changing body. Foster a sense of mindfulness to enhance the mind-body connection.
