"Spectacular training experience from beginning to end! The bonus modules of postnatal and ayurveda were very helpful. I learned everything I need to know to teach a safe and effective prenatal class, as promised. I'm now RPYT with Yoga Alliance and enjoying teaching prenatal yoga! Thanks Steph and team!"

"I've taken prenatal yoga trainings before. I took this one because it allowed me to upgrade to RPYT. I was expecting a repeat of past trainings and was so happy to learn new things! I especially liked the asana portion — creative poses and modifications I never learned in other trainings. 5 stars from me!"

"My employer chose this training for me based on Steph's well known work in the prenatal yoga field and pelvic floor yoga. The training stood up to its reputation. I enjoyed the prenatal program and am now teaching prenatal yoga regularly at my job."

"This was the only prenatal training that also offered ayurveda. I learned so much from that module and am now able to give my prenatal students helpful information for their doshas."

"I wasn't expecting such a rich experience in the philosophy module. I especially appreciated the lessons on yoga sutras during pregnancy. This gives a lot of meaning to the pregnancy experience and offers something to pass on to students in prenatal yoga classes."

Skye

"I loved learning the mudras that can induce labor. I also really liked learning the pranayamas that were safe for prenatal yoga. This prenatal yoga teacher training scratches beneath the surface and unearths those hidden gems that I was hoping to find!"

About

Why Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training?

Learn to Unlock and Harness Your Divine Feminine Energy

As a mom of 5 and grandmother of 2, the practice and teaching of prenatal yoga holds a special place in my heart. Pregnancy is a time of transition for women. There's a sense of heightened intuition and nurturing energy. Prenatal yoga is not only about the asana, but about uniting the mindful journey inside with the physical transitions on the outside.

During this magical time, our students look to us to help them navigate these changes with grace and awareness, and we as yoga teachers are able to lead, support and connect with them. Throughout this process, we learn to unlock and harness our own divine, feminine energy.
