Yoga for Labor & Delivery

at Quest Yoga Arts Saturday April 18th 2-5pm 11-13 E. Main St. Mt. Kisco, NY 10549

This couples workshop provides instruction on a wide range of simple techniques to achieve calmness, reduce discomfort and facilitate the process of labor. Couples will have ample opportunity to explore and practice techniques while the supporting partner gains confidence in his/her ability to provide practical support and comfort during labor. This workshop is a great “stand-alone” workshop in preparation for labor but is also a helpful supplement to childbirth education classes. The information gained in this workshop can be used in hospital, birth center or home birth environments and includes material not typically covered in hospital-based classes. If you are at least 20 weeks along, this workshop is for you! Dress comfortably and bring a snack and water. $100/couple.
