Pregnancy across many cultures is known as a time when women have the desire to commune with one another, tell stories, share experiences, and also to be still, go within themselves, and to grow, learn, and become strong. In our culture, this process is often not honoured. This class has been designed for you to have an opportunity to follow your instinct and true nature in your journey of pregnancy.

Each class will consist of some form of therapeutic yoga - asana, guided visualization, breath work, mudra and mantra, or energy work - and end with a final relaxation.
Each week you can expect to leave class with exercises to inspire you into deeper transformation. These might consist of writing, art, connection with others in your life, or be breath work/asana based.
Exercises will either be private for your own growth or shared with the group during the next class/posted to the Facebook group.

What are past Journeyers saying?
"I am so glad I did the Inner Goddess Pregnancy classes. I am pregnant
with my third child, and the class gave me an opportunity to connect
with myself as a pregnant woman, and the growing baby inside me. I also
treasured being able to connect with other mothers on their own journey.
It helped me to open up to the experience of being pregnant, and find
joy in the sometimes tiring process of growing a baby. I think that
going through the series of classes helped me to be more confident in
what I believe and hold true about myself and my choices on this
pregnancy journey. Andrea creates an open and non-judgmental
environment, and she lovingly guided us through many excellent exercises
and brought in special guests. I specifically liked the chance to do
different creative exercises, guided meditations, and to share my
feelings in a safe environment. I would highly recommend this class, it
has greatly enhanced my pregnancy experience."
