YOGA FOR PREGNANT WOMEN

YOGA FOR PREGNANCY

Prenatal Yoga · Meditation · Baby Connecting · Breathwork

This retreat offers expectant mothers a mindful time out to strengthen body and mind, slow down and deepen the connection with their baby. The sessions are specially designed for pregnancy and combine gentle asanas, breathing exercises, meditation and baby connecting.

The focus is on the pelvic floor and back, safe and supportive movement, as well as breathing techniques for pregnancy and birth. Yoga Nidra and calming practices support relaxation and regeneration. A shared Mama Blessing creates additional space for connection and exchange.

No previous yoga experience is required.
