Led by Lisa - A 500 RYT and Doula
My love for all things surrounding birth began while I was pregnant with my first child in 2014. I noticed the positive effects my yoga practice had on my physical and mental body. I was fascinated with the way my body and mind changed to support a human life. Even more, it reminded me how strong, capable and made for birth my body was.
During my first pregnancy, I had already had an established yoga practice. I continued to practice regularly and also incorporated prenatal yoga. As my pregnancy progressed, I became completely amazed with all things birth. It was incredible (and really strange!?) to watch my body grow and adjust to nourish the life within my womb. But it wasn’t just physical – many mental and spiritual shifts happened too. My yoga practice was the one constant in my life during all of these rapid changes. (Aside from my husband!) For that I am forever thankful. It had such a profound impact on my pregnancies, well-being, labor and delivery that I knew I wanted to share that with other women.
I am a 500 RYT. In addition to my hours of training in vinyasa-style yoga, I completed two additional 85 hour-courses focusing on prenatal and postpartum health. I completed a course (Pre- and Postnatal Coach) through Girls Gone Strong. I’ve taken additional courses locally and nationally led by yoga instructors, doulas and childbirth educators. I am a holistic-style birth doula, studying herbalism and enjoying slow living while homeschooling my children.
