I have been practicing yoga for 17 years, and during my last pregnancy, I sampled several different prenatal yoga classes locally. Kaeli’s was by far the best one and I decided to continue. In addition to the physical and meditation practices within these classes, Kaeli used them as a forum in which to offer ongoing pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum education, and to facilitate a space for peer-to-peer support.

 Yoga + Movement Classes + Series

Prenatal Yoga

Being in community is so important to our health, and only more so during the childbearing years. The first 15-30 minutes of each class is a time to say hello, share questions and find resources. During this time, teachers facilitate discussions on a variety of pregnancy, birth, and parenting topics.

Following community time, a yoga practice of gentle strengthening exercises, stretching, breath and meditation practices support your changing body and baby and help prepare you for the powerful experience of childbirth and mothering. Special emphasis is placed on building pelvic floor and core strength, and on calming meditation and breath practices.

Open to all levels; modifications for individual fitness level + trimester are provided and no experience is necessary. Taught by highly trained teachers.


. . .I delivered [my baby] after an amazing 6 hour drug-free labor. . .maybe it was the yoga, the walking, or just my body. However, I do know that without the invaluable lessons from your prenatal yoga class, the books from the lending library and the body awareness techniques you taught me I would never have been prepared for my labor and most importantly for pushing. I think the yoga classes kept me relaxed and gave me a little bit of an edge, in that I felt like I almost knew what to expect even though this was my first baby.

infant discovery sessions

Come connect with other families and babies while together we can observe and delight in the infants’ curiosity, growth and development. We expect babies to be babies!  Fussing or crying (either of you!), feeding, pooping, sleeping, arriving late or needing to leave early. . . .are all expected and welcomed! This is a time and space to be in community just as you are; without apology or need to ‘fix’ anything.

Each meeting begins with a check-in and discussion about infant development or family well-being. For example, we might:

  • Talk about creating the physical space in your home to support your baby’s learning
  • Explore strategies for holding and moving your baby which support their development
  • Brainstorm how to meet your own needs while simultaneously taking care of your baby
  • Discuss how responding to early signs of hunger or tiredness can help you and your baby have calmer and happier days / nights

Following the group discussion, we observe together what the babies are showing us about their growth, enjoy socializing and chat about parenting experiences + questions. Each meeting closes with a movement or meditation practice to nourish your hard-working parent body-mind.
