Prenatal Yoga Series just for expecting mamas here in Caledonia. It’s going to be Monday nights, 7–8 PM, starting September 22nd and running for 12 weeks. We’ll do gentle yoga that’s safe for every trimester, practice breathing + relaxation for labor, some post-birth recovery poses, and honestly just create space to slow down, connect, and be around other mamas who “get it.” I’ll be teaching, and since I’m pregnant too, we’ll be sharing this journey together.
It’s $150 for the full series (which comes with a little journal for you to use) or $18 if you just want to drop in sometimes.

“Life is like yoga; the only way you can enjoy it is by relaxing into any position you happen to find yourself in.” - Jon Wakeham

Yoga isn’t just about the poses, it’s about how you meet yourself in them.

It’s rarely about “perfect” alignment.

Whatever “position” you find yourself in today - on the mat or in life - see if you can soften into it, breathe into it, and let peace and clarity guide you forward.

Tonight we have our Sunday Vinyasa Flow 5-6pm - please sign up ahead of time to save your spot and reserve it for the class. DM on here or text 651 399 0913 to sign up!

Classes this week:
- Tuesday 5:15-6:15pm Vinyasa Flow
- Wednesday 7-8pm Vinyasa Flow
- Thursday 5:30-6:15am Power Flow
- Friday 5:15-6:00am Power Flow

September schedule drops this week! Stay tuned!!

🌿 A Personal Note from Daneka 🌿
This series is very close to my heart. As I prepare to welcome my own first baby in January 2026, I’ve felt firsthand how transformative, beautiful, and sometimes overwhelming the pregnancy journey can be. Through my own practice as a yoga teacher since 2022, and through the many books, trainings, and resources I’ve poured into during this season, I felt called to create a space just for expecting mothers.

Glow & Grow Prenatal Yoga Series was designed to nurture and support you—whether you’re in your first trimester or your final weeks before birth. My intention is to guide you through movement, mindfulness, breathwork, and education while also creating a sense of community with other mamas walking a similar path.

These classes are more than yoga poses—they are an opportunity to connect with your body, your baby, and your breath. Whether this is your first pregnancy or your fourth, my hope is that you leave each class feeling stronger, more grounded, and deeply supported as you grow both life and love within you.
I can’t wait to walk this journey alongside you. 💛

Child’s pose is an āsana of retreat allowing to pause and connect to your breath at any point in your practice.

If you are struggling with finding rest in Child’s pose or looking for a different ways to mix it up, here are some ways to modify this pose.

1. Use Props: If your head is floating above the mat, place a blanket or block under your forehead. If you have sensitive knees, use a blanket underneath for extra cushioning.

2. Knees Together: If you’re a little tight in your hips, draw your knees to touch and fold your body over.

3. Adjust Arm Position: bend your arms, place your palms together and draw your thumbs towards the back of the neck. This also opens up the opportunity for self-massage, using your thumbs to knead into any tension in your neck and shoulders.

What’s your favorite way to practice child’s pose?

Classes this week:
- Tuesday, August 12th: 5:15-6:15pm Vinyasa Flow
- Wednesday, August 13th: 7-8pm Vinyasa Flow
- Thursday, August 14th: 5:30-6:15am Power Flow
- Friday, August 15th: 5:15-6:00am Power Flow
- Sunday, August 17th: 5-6pm Vinyasa Flow

TREE POSE: Stay Grounded While Growing
Can you be grounded and inspired at the same time? Can you stay centered while dreaming of greatness? In Tree Pose, you plant one foot sturdily on the ground as if putting down roots, and brace your other foot against your standing leg. On and off the mat, you can remain grounded in who you are while continuing to grow and change. First, establish your foundation: This is Who I Am. Next, expand into your potential: This is Who I Want to Be. Look beyond the treetops of everything you know about yourself, and dream!

Thanks to Marie May Photography to capturing both Leigh and Brynne demonstrating different versions of Tree Pose. These amazing women showing up and demonstrating what it means to be grounded and growing!
