Pregnancy is one of the most beautifully transformative times in a woman's life — a time when both body and mind are in a state of constant evolution. Our Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training in India equips you to become a guiding light for mothers at every step of this incredible journey. Our teacher training programme prepares you to create compassionate, mindful, and effective sessions that prepare mothers for labour, aid in postpartum healing, and nurture lasting physical and emotional health.
By joining our Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training, you will not just learn yoga postures —you’ll learn how to empower, support and motivate new mothers through yoga. You’ll also be taught to modify poses, guide breathwork, and provide emotional support through the postures, adjusting your teaching to address each mother's specific requirements.
By the end of the course, you will get the completion certificate from the school. If you have already completed the 200 hour YTTC, then you’ll be qualified to register with Yoga Alliance USA and teach prenatal and postnatal yoga anywhere in the world.
Get ready to start one of the most rewarding and meaningful journeys on earth – being a guide for mothers - as they bring new life into this world.
Prenatal Yoga is a type of Yoga that helps strengthen and stabilise a woman’s body during pregnancy. It is devoted to gentle stretching, modified postures and activities that are safe but helpful in making joints and muscles functional. These modified prenatal poses, under the direction of our certified instructors, keep soon-to-be mothers in great shape while keeping their minds settled during pregnancy.
Postnatal Yoga, on the other hand, is designed to help a mother regain health after childbirth. Through the restorative asanas, gentle movement, and focused breath and relaxation practices of postnatal Yoga, we calm the body, deal with stress, or even combat postpartum depression.
Our 85 hour Pre and Postnatal YTTC in Kerala is one of the exclusive programs organised for students who want to become proficient prenatal and postnatal yoga trainers. Trainees develop an in-depth understanding of labour, newborn care, and the management of women’s health care during pregnancy, ensuring a safe and practical approach to promoting conception. Another focus area of our programme is the postpartum recovery.
