Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training

Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training

The intention of this 25hour Prenatal and Postnatal Teacher Training course is to give you more tools to support and empower your students during and after pregnancy, in a group and in a private setting. 

By the end of this course, you will be able to create sequences for each trimester of pregnancy and postpartum and you will understand better each phase of pregnancy, what to focus on and what to avoid.

As each woman is unique, her practice will also be. We all have different bodies with different limitations, strength, mobility and goals. It is fundamental to be able to adapt the shapes and the sequences to individuals. These are the subtleties of teaching yoga. 

Each module will start with a led class designed for a certain trimester of pregnancy or postpartum. This is for you to be able to see how a class is led in this context and what type of cueing we use. We will also guide you through some special sequences such as one for diastasis recti or for post miscarriage. Each module will have an anatomy/physiology lecture, a section on affirmation and your intention as a yoga teacher for each month of pregnancy and postpartum.

We will cover in the teaching section, how to incorporate this new knowledge into your regular classes and give you lots of tutorials on how to teach pelvic floor and abdominal tonic, breathing exercises, guided meditation with scripts and much more.

This course is 100% online and self paced

I have been practicing yoga since I was 12 years old and and teaching yoga for over 10 years so I knew I wanted to continue my practice throughout my pregnancy. But when I got pregnant I was a little nervous about navigating the transformations I was experiencing so that my baby and me were healthy and safe. Gwen’s prenatal and postnatal training has been such a gift. Her lectures have given me the confidence to feel empowered to continue my self practice so that me and my baby are nourished and happy. Her guided classes are also such a treat when I feel the need to be supported and led by a teacher. I can’t recommend her online training enough.

The 25-hour prenatal and postnatal yoga teacher training taught by Gwen was helpful in learning how to support and empower women in any stage of pregnancy. The course provides an overview on the stages of pregnancy and then does a deeper dive into creating a yoga class to support students safely. I would highly recommend this training to anyone interested in learning about how to support pregnant women in their yoga classes. I would also definitely take another training with Gwen and her team. Thank you Gwen!

I loved the 25hr Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training ! I learned so much more about women’s bodies, about the different phases of pregnancy and how each phase brings its different emotions, body changes, needs and sometimes struggles. Not being a mom and not wanting children made me kind of unaware about all of those things, but with that teacher training I can now definitely feel more safe and secure about my knowledge and how to use it to help my students going through those phases. Thanks a lot Gwen for all that precious informations, your videos and the manual are so good, and the platforme to study is very intuitive and easy to use. I would totally recommend that training if like me you have very few knowledge about all of this and want to learn knew things you can also apply to you regular classes.

J'ai décidé de suivre le cours en ligne de Yoga Pré Post Natal que proposait Gwen car je souhaitais approfondir mes connaissances sur ce sujet afin de pouvoir accompagner les mamans en toute sécurité dans mes classes. J'ai adoré ce cours car il m'a permis d'avancer à mon propre rythme en prenant tout le temps dont j'avais besoin afin de pouvoir continuer en parallèle à travailler. Chaque nouveau thème abordé était toujours accompagné d'un pdf explicatif, de vidéos ainsi que de cours pratiques, ce qui rendait toujours le cours très intéressant et très clair. Gwen s'est aussi toujours montrée disponible pour toute question et m'a donné de super feedbacks. Je ne peux que recommander vivement ce cours! Merci encore!

I’m so happy I completed the online 25 hour pre/postnatal yoga course. It helped me so much during my pregnancy, and helped me understand the changes my body is going through. Moreover, in the first trimester I was worried I may do something wrong, however your guidance, the classes and the manual helped me gain confidence in my practice. Your led classes were so amazing in helping me reduce my anxiety. I took my sweet time completing the course as I wanted to practice what was taught on myself first, and this was a wonderful opportunity to gain experience. Thank you once again for the course. I really enjoyed it and I highly recommend it.

Your Teacher

Hi! 

I am Gwendoline Ferreira, the creator and teacher of this Online Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training Course! I train yoga teachers on 200h and 300h level since 2016. I am an E-RYT500, RPYT (Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher) and YACEP and have taught prenatal and postnatal women online and in-person.

One of my biggest passion and mission in life is to help yoga teachers develop their teaching skills so they can share their knowledge and help others.

I have a 3 years old boy myself and was amazed of the changes in my body and also in my practice before, during and after pregnancy. Pregnancy is a real transformation of the body and the mind and as it always goes with transformation, it is not always easy and comfortable. This is why having the support from knowledgeable yoga teachers like you is essential!

I feel it is a privileged to be a yoga facilitator and to be able to share this amazing practice of Yoga. We don’t always have the chance to travel away from home to deepen our studies and I hope that by sharing knowledge online, more of you will be able to gain the skills to support and empower women during and after their pregnancy.
