Dancing Doula
Currently teaching prenatal yoga and movement classes ,workshops and private birth education consultations throughout the Brooklyn and NYC metro area. I am also an experienced birth and postpartum doula . My journey began in 1997 as a Sivananda yoga instructor and Middle Eastern dancer, instructor and performer . The sacred art of Raqs Sharqi,known also as “ bellydance” has its roots in ancient fertility ritual dances and lends itself perfectly in helping to relax, tone and open the body in preparation for labor and birth.
I have been practicing yoga since childhood, and teaching prenatal yoga since 2007. My work with pregnant women through pregnancy and postpartum informs my birth doula work. I believe that every women deserves support and empowerment throughout this powerful and sacred transition to motherhood .
