Pregnancy is a time of transformation physically, mentally and spiritually for a woman. Through the Shanti Mom Pregnancy Yoga Training the yoga teacher will learn to:

• Create and guide expectant moms through asana safe for pregnancy
• Create and guide pre-natal students through meditations for mom and baby
• Create a space free of tension and judgement where mom and baby can connect
• Provide a community where students can bond with other moms going through a similar transition
• Compassionate eating for the pregnant mom
• Plan classes that are designed specifically for the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of expectant moms
• Apply knowledge of pregnancy complications and contraindications to assure the mom's safety at all times

Over two full weekends the training will highlight: led practices, appropriate asana and adjustments for the pregnant mom, elements of a prenatal class, key anatomy topics for pregnancy, pregnancy contraindications for asana and pranayama practice, meditations for pregnancy, spiritual class themes for pregnancy, pregnancy related movie reviews, different birthing options, and post natal class information. This training is appropriate for certified yoga instructors or instructors in training.
