A Practical and Supportive Learning Experience
Throughout the training, you’ll explore the physical, emotional and physiological changes that occur during pregnancy, developing a deeper understanding of how these changes can influence movement, energy levels, balance, breath and overall wellbeing. Alongside this knowledge, you’ll learn practical teaching methods that enable you to confidently and safely adapt yoga for every stage of the prenatal journey.
You’ll explore how to offer appropriate variations, create thoughtful sequences and respond to the individual needs of each student rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Particular attention will be given to safety, contraindications, trimester-specific considerations and creating an inclusive environment where pregnant students feel supported, empowered and listened to.
The course is both educational and experiential. You’ll embody the practices yourself, explore the effects of different movements and breathing techniques, and gain valuable hands-on teaching experience. With guidance, practice and supportive feedback, you’ll develop the confidence to plan and deliver nurturing, informed and engaging pregnancy yoga classes.

Who It’s For
This training is designed for qualified yoga teachers who want to expand their knowledge and develop the confidence to support students safely and compassionately throughout pregnancy. It is ideal for teachers who understand the foundations of yoga but would like specialist knowledge of the pregnant body, appropriate adaptations and prenatal teaching practices.
You may want to welcome pregnant students into your existing classes, introduce a dedicated pregnancy yoga class or develop prenatal yoga as a new area of specialism. The course will help you understand how pregnancy can affect each student differently and how to respond with sensitivity, confidence and appropriate professional boundaries.
By the end of the training, you’ll have the practical skills and knowledge needed to plan thoughtful sequences, offer safe variations and create classes that support movement, relaxation, connection and preparation for birth. Most importantly, you’ll feel equipped to provide a nurturing and inclusive space where students can feel listened to, respected and empowered throughout every stage of pregnancy.
