Description

Pregnancy Yoga Teacher Training Course

Pregnancy Yoga Teacher Training

As Yoga teachers we constantly search for different ways to give more value to our students and spread the teaching of Yoga.
Teaching Pregnancy Yoga is highly rewarding and being able to deliver high quality classes to your local community will help increase your visibility and your bottom line.  You will be able to reach your pregnancy Yoga students from all over the country on Zoom, this is now possible since the Pandemic.

We pride ourselves in our Unique Teaching System, a tool box which makes sequencing logical and easy and from which you will derive endless lesson plans to keep your classes interesting and varied. What is more, you will be given complete class plans, including warm up sequences, a main themed sequence and closing postures. This course is experiential and you will be practising along a series of recorded classes on Zoom.

Each class plan includes detailed breathing practices based on classic Yoga Pranayama but specifically geared at Pregnancy as well as Pelvic Floor exercises, Physiology of Birth and Guided Relaxation and Visualisation practices. This programme quite simply works, and has been our signature class plans at Yogamoo™ on the basis of  3 classes per week for many years. This programme is equivalent to an in-person training of 40 hours, from the comfort of your home, totally self-paced, with direct 1-1 access to your tutor and group Q&A

Course Details

Pregnancy Yoga Teacher Training Objectives

This course will give you a full understanding of how to successfully structure and deliver Pregnancy Yoga classes to suit Pregnant women in their 2nd and 3rd term of Pregnancy for a safe and comprehensive Yoga practice.

The Lesson plans are themed to focus on specific areas of emotional and physical well being in Pregnancy. Each theme will be reviewed and practised in the training room so that you understand how to best make use of them in your own style.

A. Yes it is best to be a certified or in-training Yoga Teacher (2 years Yoga practice min) to do this course with at least 2 years of Yoga practice as a student.
