Couples Workshop : Birth Preparation

This workshop focuses on providing couples the opportunity to enhance awareness and confidence in pregnancy, labour and birth. Through discussion, gentle postures, meditation and massage, couples are able to cultivate greater relaxation, better understanding and increase the enjoyment of childbearing.

This workshop creates a sense of calm and enhances flexibility easing the birthing process, reducing pain therefore increasing the joy of giving birth.

Postures will be taught and practiced by both mother-to-be and partner. The postures taught will be beneficial allowing couples to enjoy the rest of the pregnancy as well as prepare them for labour.

Mothers-to-be, at any stage of pregnancy, are invited to participate in this workshop. It will greatly strengthen the connection between mother, partner and the unborn baby. No necessary yoga experience is required.

The presence of a supportive partner provides a power aid in labour and delivery. Our couples workshop at Surya Yoga aims to educate partners on how to better support birthing mother's with confidence and sensitivity.
