Knowledge is power. Childbirth education at Harlem Yoga Studio combines current evidence-based information with the innate wisdom of trusting your body – leading you to an empowered birth experience. Each class will consist of information on physiologic birth and common hospital birth interventions as well as yoga poses and guided relaxation techniques to ease the discomforts of pregnancy and cope with labor and childbirth. We will learn about the postpartum period, breastfeeding and newborn care. This holistic course will prepare you to create a birth plan, make informed medical decisions and advocate for yourself.
