Prenatal Power Flow
This prenatal yoga class is designed as an alternative to the normal, slower prenatal classes that are out there. It's for moms who have a strong yoga practice and have not lost that strength or stamina in the first trimester of their pregnancy. The poses are modified for a pregnant body so a mom to be can flow without worrying if the pose is on the "allowed" list.

I thought this class was great - definitely agree w/ other reviewers that it is more challenging (in a great way) than the typical prenatal classes. Thank you to the teacher for posting it! You definitely do need a yoga background before trying this, especially if you are already pregnant.
Finally, a prenatal class that I feel challenged doing. Although I do love the slower paced classes as well, this one is more my speed and I feel like I'm getting the amount of exercise I'm used to. Thanks so much!
Love her classes and knowing she has prepared some prenatal classes is the best!
It's also important that she always give the different variations so we can adapt for our own capacities.
Please keep it up your great work.
Four days ago, I found out that I'm pregnant. I thought I was ready for motherhood, but when the second line showed up, I didn't feel anything besides shock. I feel like I had barely begun to process this change when today brought a total meltdown of regret (cue the hormone-induced, out-of-character bawling).
I turned to my mat and found your class as a distraction to stop the tears. I couldn't even touch my belly at the beginning of the class, and there were a few more tears the first time I "rocked my baby." But by the end of the hour, I felt calm, strong, and connected, like I truly am (though sometimes I forget). And I even felt strong enough to verbally say "hello" to the little twinging feeling in my lower abdomen.
What if taking care of myself also takes care of my baby? What if being myself also teaches my baby how to be themselves? What if parenthood isn't an either/or situation? What if I don't disappear, but just change, like I do every day anyway?
Thank you so, so much for sharing this sweet and lovely class. Baby and I plan to return to it over the next 9 months. <3
