After 12+ years of teaching pre and postnatal women and 15+ years teaching human beings as a yoga teacher I realised this.
It's all connected!
So often the problems we see in the pelvic floor relate to our posture, and the problems in our posture relate to the pelvic floor.
But what came first?
Does it even matter?
What even is a 'correct' posture?
Can we stop labelling our students with 'bad posture' and guide them to find balance within their posture?
In this place do the issues around pelvic pain, back pain and pelvic floor diminish?
If any of the above catches your attention this course is for you!

Hi I'm Amy
And I love the human body.
I've taught yoga for over 15 years and believe we should question all areas of 'conventional wisdom', when it comes to how we are told the human body does and does not work.
There are no straight lines in the human body.
And no blueprint for the perfect posture.
