The Yoga of Birth
Childbirth Education & Preparation for Couples
The Yoga of Birth is a three-hour workshop for expectant couples preparing for childbirth.
The teaching centers the internal state as the primary birthing environment. Couples learn how awareness, presence, and physiological calm influence the experience of birth through yoga, breath, education, and guided exploration.
This workshop offers a clear framework for understanding childbirth as a physiological, emotional, and relational process, cultivating confidence and clarity as birth approaches.

Yogic birthing positions and partner-assisted movement
Breath and relaxation practices that regulate the nervous system
Clear, responsive communication between partners

The Approach
The Yoga of Birth emphasizes thoughtful preparation and informed participation. Couples deepen their understanding of birth physiology, explore practical comfort measures, and develop confidence in navigating childbirth together. Medical care, individual needs, and personal circumstances are approached with respect and discernment.
The practices introduced remain useful across a wide range of birth experiences.
Who This Workshop Is For
