About Prenatal Yoga Center

ABOUT US

OUR MISSION

Prenatal Yoga Center is committed to educating and empowering new and expectant parents to make informed choices that best serve their families. The PYC Method is built on a three-pronged approach that fosters community, integrates childbirth education, and uses intentional yoga asana to support a more functional birth and smoother recovery. We change lives one birth at a time.

PYC Method

Asana Practice

Yoga asana is essential in preparing the pregnant student's mind and body for birth.

On a physical level, it alleviates common pregnancy aches and pains and helps create balance in the pelvis to assist a more functional, speedy birth.

From a mental and emotional standpoint, the asana practice is an amazing tool to lean into safe discomfort and find coping skills.

Community

We start each class with “circle time,” where students introduce themselves, share how far along they are in their pregnancy, and discuss any aches and pains they wish to address in class.

The journey through pregnancy and postpartum periods brings major changes and challenges, and a strong community can be an incredibly important source of support.

Childbirth Education

“We need to empower pregnant people to take an active role in their birth so they can emerge feeling heard, seen, understood and supported.” ~Deb Flashenberg, Founder & Director of PYC

We interweave childbirth education into our classes with the intention to empower students to make conscious and informed decisions during their pregnancy, labor, and transition into parenthood.

Our team members

At Prenatal Yoga Center, we’re proud to have a knowledgeable and compassionate teaching team dedicated to supporting you through every stage of pregnancy. Our instructors include certified Childbirth Educators, former Labor and Delivery Nurse, a Nurse Practitioner, experienced Labor Support Doulas, Spinning Babies® Parent Educators, Body Ready Method® Birth Professionals, and parents who bring lived experience to their teaching. Together, we offer more than yoga, we provide expert guidance, education, and support from a team that truly understands birth.
