With the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge as a back drop, join nationally recognized pre and postnatal yoga teacher Jane Austin for a yoga practice that is designed specifically to address common issues that a new mama experiences. As a mother of two, Jane understands firsthand the issues that often confront moms. With the work of caring for a new babe, a new mother may find her own needs neglected. Take time to care for yourself! These postnatal sequences will energize and strengthen mamas. Relaxation is also included in order to sooth a new moms over worked body and calm her nerves and mind. The practices focus on neck, shoulders, back, abs and pelvic floor.
Medical disclaimer specific to mamas:
Please get the okay from your doctor or midwife before beginning this practice. It is recommended mamas wait 4-6 weeks after a vaginal birth and 8 weeks after a cesarean birth before starting a regular yoga practice. It is important that the lochia flow has stopped. If you have a rectus diastasis (split in the abdominal muscles) avoid crunches, deep twisting and deep back bending until healed. Consult a physical therapist or a Pilates instructor trained in diastasis rehabilitation if split is present.
