How my yoga practice shifted as I became a mother.

During pregnancy, I was fortunate and privileged to have incredible teachers who embraced femininity and motherhood within the practice. They gave me permission to be more gentle, sometimes even urging me to slow down and skip anything that didn’t support or embrace the changes that come with being pregnant.

Ashtanga yoga can support healthy cycles…By tuning into these rhythms, we learn when to rest or push forward. While women follow a monthly cycle and men a daily one, yoga unites these patterns, building a supportive community that values both rest and productivity for sustainable growth.
