6 Week Series
September 23rd - October 28th
Fridays, 10:45am-12:00pm
Join birth and postpartum doula Rebecca Henry for her unique 6-week Online Postnatal Yoga Series that is an exciting and innovated collaboration between Roots & River Yoga and Lighthouse Yoga Center in Washington, DC.
This postnatal class series, designed for people with babies 6-weeks to pre-crawling, will focus on exploring and learning about how the core, pelvic floor and joints can all be affected by pregnancy and how we can work to heal, strengthen and stabilize. Restorative poses throughout each class will help soothe baby-addled nerves. With babies welcome in class, you can feel free to come late, leave early and/or stop your practice anytime you need to care for baby.
After each class, you'll receive a recording of the class to practice again, or later if you couldnt make class time or had to leave early. Each class gives you a chance to connect with other new parents and talk about any issues you are having with baby or your post baby body.
Cost: $108/series
Rebecca’s journey with yoga and meditation began more than twenty years ago when she took precepts with the Zen Buddhist Society of Compassionate Wisdom. Forever a student, Rebecca brings a beginners mind and an awakened heart to her practice and teaching. Compassion, empathy, humor and joy are at the core of all of her classes. Her focus is on alignment and mindful movement with breath in both a traditional hatha as well as vinyasa style.
Rebecca completed her 200 hour training with Tara Lemerise at Willow Street Yoga in Takoma Park, MD, pre and post natal yoga teacher training with Debra Flashenburg of the Prenatal Yoga Center of New York City and is certified with Leslie Howard in Pelvic Floor Yoga™. She has also done training with Tara Lemerise in Restorative Yoga. As a mother of two young boys, she is impassioned to support other women in their journey into motherhood through the mindfulness and body-centered practices of yoga and meditation. As birth and postpartum doula, she emphasizes childbirth education and body awareness in her pre- and postnatal classes, bringing these practical aspects together with a warm, nurturing teaching style.
This series is offered online only.
