Perinatal Yoga Training: For Movement Professionals and others who Support Birthers

We are offering a three part training at

These are 3 distinct workshops that can be bundled for a well-rounded introduction to prenatal and postpartum care. These workshops are designed for yoga and movement teachers, as well as those supporting people through pregnancy and postpartum—including doulas, midwives, chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, counselors, and acupuncturists.

Together, these workshops explore how movement, body awareness, and education can support the experience of growing, birthing, and recovering from having a baby. The series moves from foundational concepts into more in-depth prenatal and postpartum applications.

Workshops can be taken individually, though each one builds on the last. Participants are encouraged to attend the full series for deeper integration. Shana and Megan look forward to sharing their passion and their combined expertise of over 40 years of supporting people who birth.

Please bring:
Something to take notes with; a notebook and pen or pencil

Shana’s offering coming up soon. Contact for more details.

WHAT IS RESTORE YOUR CORE®?

Restore Your Core® is an exercise program that uses a whole-body approach to retrain your core and pelvic floor muscles to be more functional, reflexive, and supportive.
A 5-week Restore Your Core® series to help you find and use your reflexive core. If you are having back pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti, or tightness in your shoulders and neck, it could be that your core strength needs some attention. Using alignment, yoga and movement exercises, we will learn to restore your core and pelvic floor function.

We have class together once a week for 5 weeks. During each class, we will bring awareness to your movement and alignment patterns as we create new ones that better support your body. Each class will build on the previous class, and a short practice will be given to practice each week outside of class.

2 OPTIONS:

5 Thursdays: May 1 - May 29: 6-7:15pm

5 Saturdays: May 31 - June 28; 9-10:15 am

Class size limited. Classes held in downtown Milwaukie

Hi friends! It’s been a while! Within our three families a lot has been going on! A new baby arrived that is already a toddler, children are becoming teenagers and we’ve sent young adults to college! These big life transitions have been keeping us busy.

So much has also shifted in the world and in this country that has inspired us even more to commit to cultivating equitable, trauma aware, compassionate spaces for pregnant and postpartum families. We’re excited to be putting more time, energy and love into our Next Wave Birth Teacher Training program.

We’ve changed a few things in hopes of making our training more accessible, both financially and in terms of time commitment.

If you’ve been interested in studying with us, please join our in-person info session on Sunday, April 13th at 1pm in SE portland. DM us here with your email or send us an email at hello@nextwavebirth.com and we’ll send you all the details.
