Classes for pregnancy and postpartum
The studio's classes are built around the body as it changes through pregnancy and after birth. Prenatal Flow is a vinyasa-inspired practice for every stage of pregnancy, and Prenatal Slow Flow is a gentler, Hatha-inspired class for days that call for stillness. Prenatal Mat Pilates works the deep core, pelvic floor, hips and back, and Prenatal Strength uses a Pilates- and barre-inspired approach to build the strength you will lean on through birth and the first year after.
After birth, Restore Your Core: Baby & Me Strength focuses on core rehabilitation, and Baby & Me Yoga offers gentle yoga and breathwork for postpartum bodies. Pre/Postnatal Sculpt blends yoga with light weights and resistance work, and suits both expecting and postpartum students.
The shape of the week
The schedule runs through the morning, midday, evening and weekends. About a third of classes fall in the morning, and Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are the busiest days. Most classes are about an hour long.
The Wednesday evening Candlelight Restorative class is the studio's quiet evening practice, built for the version of you that is tired, stretched thin or low on sleep. Several classes are open to all levels, so you can often find one that fits your energy on a given day.

Prenatal flow, prenatal slow flow, prenatal Pilates and prenatal strength are all built for pregnancy, and the studio also runs classes for the months after birth, including Baby & Me Yoga, where pre-crawling babies join you on the mat. Prenatal Flow is written for every stage of pregnancy, whether you are newly expecting or close to your due date.
What should I try after having a baby?
Baby & Me Yoga is a gentle yoga and breathwork class for postpartum bodies, with your pre-crawling baby on the mat beside you. Restore Your Core: Baby & Me Strength is a Pilates- and barre-inspired practice focused on core rehabilitation after birth. Both are offered in the postpartum months and are a good place to start if you are looking for movement with your baby.
