Building Strength & Stability in Prenatal Yoga

A morning yoga session in the garden, holding the Tree Pose. Starting the day with balancing postures can help set a calm and centered tone for the rest of your day.

This is the Triangle Pose, or Trikonasana, a great way to stretch the entire side of the body while strengthening the legs and core. We adapt the depth of this pose based on your comfort.

The Goddess Pose is a powerful squat that strengthens the hips, thighs, and pelvic floor. It's an excellent posture to practice in preparation for labor, building endurance and openness.

Tadasan, or Mountain Pose, looks simple but is the foundation for all standing postures. It teaches proper alignment, grounding, and a sense of upward lift through the spine.

This variation of a side plank on the knee builds core stability and arm strength without putting any strain on the abdomen. It's a safe way to maintain core connection during pregnancy.

A two-part look at a modified side plank, showing the stability and control involved. This pose strengthens the obliques and improves balance, all while keeping the practice safe for you.

A deeper expression of Trikonasana in my studio. This pose energizes the body and creates a feeling of expansion from your feet to your fingertips.

The Triangle Pose is a staple in my classes. It helps to open the hips and chest, creating more space for you to breathe deeply.
