Most foundation yoga teacher training courses devote at best a couple of hours on how to adjust a yoga practice to accommodate a pregnant woman. Yet the likelihood is at some point most yoga teachers will probably find that one of their regular students becomes pregnant or a pregnant woman unexpectedly joins the class.

Concern or fear when teaching yoga to a pregnant woman is an all too common problem for yoga teachers.

This self-paced study, CPD course will give you the confidence to safely and effectively integrate a pregnant woman into your general yoga classes, using easy-to-remember principles of support, soften and space. You will also be able to advise a woman when a general yoga class may not be suitable during her pregnancy.

This course is for yoga teachers who want to feel confident in teaching yoga to a pregnant woman within a general yoga class.
