Prenatal Yoga in a safe and loving community space!

For all pregnant folks ~ to connect with their baby, breath & body, with other expecting parents in the community.

An extra long class to give us time to connect with one another, and enjoy a long pranayama opening meditation.  We practice gentle breathing techniques that are safe for pregnancy~ including the gentle activation and relaxation of the pelvic floor. 

During the opening meditation and throughout the yoga sequence, there will be live sounds of crystal singing bowls, chimes, rain sticks, and other sound healing instruments~ to help you quiet the mind as you bring yourself into the parasympathetic state of your nervous system.
 
Positive affirmations for pregnancy and birth will be interwoven throughout the practice - to support you in returning to a place of trust in your body and your birthing journey. In these yoga classes, we will be preparing ourselves for birth, and relieving the body of any tension or stiffness from carrying baby.  

What to expect in the asana (yoga poses) portion of the practice.
  • spinal decompression with miracle balls
  • self massage with therapy balls
  • gentle stretching
  • mindful movement
  • restorative poses with props
  • gentle strengthening
  • pelvic floor balancing
  • space to find what feels good in your body

These classes are gentle with ways to modify, making it accessible for everyone.

Astika Rose

Astika is a clinical hypnotherapist, peaceful pregnancy practitioner, mother, and is passionate about working with the body and mind  to heal and return to a place of balance.  Yoga has been an incredible practice for her own journey, and she is honoured to witness the healing unfold in the lives of others. 

Astika received her yoga teacher training in 2016 in Nelson BC at Shanti Yoga- a yoga studio that specializes in alignment-based Yoga. After receiving her 200hr teacher certificate, Astika continued to train privately in Therapeutic Yoga with her teacher from Centered Within Yoga in Maple Ridge. Astika was pregnant during her training, resulting in a lot of training in prenatal/postnatal yoga!  Being pregnant really helped her integrate everything she was learning in pre/postnatal yoga,  as she directly applied it in her own practice. Astika is very grateful to have been given the opportunity to teach prenatal yoga when she was pregnant, as well as baby & me yoga which she got to teach with her newborn! Astika quickly discovered her love for pregnancy and birth and hasn't stopped teaching pre/postnatal yoga since! 

Astika has fallen in love with learning & empowering others in how we can use yoga and hypnotherapy for a more easeful birthing journey ~ pregnancy - birth - postpartum. 
She believes in lifting each other up as we collectively let go of the fear surrounding birth, support all forms of birth and honour a mother's intuition.

Please contact Astika if you have any questions, any health concerns or If you have any pregnancy related symptoms you are experiencing.
