"I am so thankful for the prenatal yoga classes you offered! I wish I had done them with my first two babies! The classes helped me connect with baby and physically/emotionally prepare for labor/birth." - A. S.
Melissa Schnurr, PhD, CD(DONA)
Melissa is an incredible instructor. Here is a brief explanation of her yoga series. Check out her page to learn more!
"Just like labor is unique to each woman, every woman's yoga practice looks different. I am here to guide your movements, and you will learn to listen to your body and follow its lead just as you will in labor.
Each class in a 6-week series begins with 15-20 minutes of community connection and education centered around various childbearing topics. After this time, the focus turns to connecting with your body, baby, and breathe. Each class is structured like the waves you will experience during labor. Our movement begins slow and builds up to the mid-point of class, similar to the peak of a contraction, when we do a "challenge pose". After the challenge pose, we come down slowly and end class with a few minutes of relaxation.
Physically speaking, the intent of the series is to stretch, maintain strength, and enhance flexibility. Rest assured, classes can be modified to fit your comfort level. Truly any body can do the yoga poses!"

"Often I am asked if my prenatal yoga series is a childbirth education class. I am not a childbirth educator; however, I am a certified birth doula so I am trained to share resources, knowledge, and my experiences around pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood. Yet, time in class is limited so I encourage additional education to ensure you are empowered in your birth journey.
