Born to Breathe ~ Mission Statement:

To empower women in their pregnancy & beyond. HOW CAN I HELP YOU IN YOUR JOURNEY? Together we will work on balance.

Pregnancy is a very special time for an expectant woman. It can also be a time of uncertainty, shifts in the body, & discomforts. It is a time of needing community support from other expectant women. Prenatal yoga could be the answer for you! Take a closer look into the benefits of prenatal yoga. Through lesson plans developed specifically for pregnancy, we will have open & honest discussions on t

he most current topics of pregnancy, birth, & postpartum. You will work on a deeper connection with your body, your breath, & your baby. Connecting to your breath will teach you how to relax your mind & your body in preparation for labor & birth. The breath is your support not just while on your yoga mat during prenatal classes, but also as you travel through labor, birth, motherhood, and life. I will guide you through postures, which are safe for you & your baby. Meditations and positive affirmations will assist in releasing fears of the unknown. alignment, & creating space within your body. All elements of helping your baby find the best positioning in your womb.

Please continue to follow this page if you are interested in some offerings now & then.

I have begun an exciting new chapter in my yoga journey!

After 13 beautiful years of teaching prenatal yoga, I feel deeply grateful for the opportunity to support so many incredible women during such a transformative time in their lives. It has been a privilege to witness your strength, growth, and connection.

As seasons changes, so do our paths. I'm excited to announce that I will be transitioning my focus to YOGA FOR MENOPAUSE!

This phase of life, often misunderstood or overlooked, deserves the same love, support, and empowerment that I have been honored to bring to prenatal yoga.

Through yoga, mindfulness, and movement, I hope to help women navigate this stage with grace, balance, and vitality.

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this journey so far. I look forward to sharing this next chapter with you.
Stay tuned for upcoming classes, resources, and ways to connect!

With gratitude ~
Roberta

Born to Breathe Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga

I am known as the “midwife of souls”. Not only touching the lives of every woman who comes to their mat for prenatal yoga, but also impacting the lives of the tiny human growing within.

It is my passion to empower women during all phases of their lives but especially during their pregnancy journey. They hold birth in their hands. My classes help to empower them with knowledge.

I have been instructing prenatal yoga since 2012 receiving my RPYT in 2014.

I am beginning my newest endeavor of including Postnatal Yoga. I have been instructing some postnatal students in my home studio. I am thrilled to also offer this at Motherhood Matters.
