CPR, Choking and AED Workshop w/ The Mama Coaches
Prenatal Partners Yoga Workshop
In this 90-minute prenatal yoga workshop is designed for parents-to-be. It is a great way to spend some quality time with your partner and celebrate your growing family.
Galina prepared a fun and educational class that equally engages both parents with moves that are beneficial and safe for the pregnant body. This workshop was inspired by Galina`s own pregnancy journey and her husband's desire to be helpful during those months.
This is not a birthing class, it is a class that shows partners how to play an active role during pregnancy, especially the last bits of it, which typically are the hardest. Couples will leave with knowledge of yogic pain management tools, poses to target achy lower backs, shoulders, and sides of the body for better breathing and more.
No yoga experience required.
Upcoming Date: March 1st 11:30-1pm
Investment: $35/Couple
About the Instructor: Galina has been a yoga practitioner since 2007. For years she has relied on yoga to support her physical and emotional well being.
In 2015 Galina was going through major life changes and needed a fresh start. She took a trip to the Himalaya mountains with her local yoga community and stayed in a little village surrounded by a forest full of curious monkeys. For a month Galina worked through a deep body and mind cleanse at a local Ayurvedic clinic, and attended morning chants at an Ashram followed by yoga practice. That trip was truly transforming.
The planted seeds sprouted after Galina moved to California and took an opportunity to complete a 200-hour “LEVITYoGA” YTT taught by Peter Sterios in 2019. Her own teaching journey began shortly after with a weekly all level class at The Space yoga studio in Visalia, CA.
2023 was another year of change. Galina and her husband were expecting their first baby. During the pregnancy Galina completed Prenatal and Postpartum yoga teacher training and offered prenatal yoga workshops. After the baby boy arrived the family moved to the Sacramento area where Galina continues to teach prenatal yoga.
