“The videos on these modules for the dual stream are SO GOOD. First of all it’s great to be able to see/hear you guys especially as a home-study person and secondly so much of the content is covering stuff I was really wondering about (e.g what is meant by emotional support, and the nuances of relationship building with primary care folks). Loving it!!”

What are the prerequisites for this postnatal yoga teacher training course?
No prior yoga training is required. We only ask that you are passionate and committed to creating a supportive community for families through yoga.
Do I need a 200-hour certification to take the course?
While prior teaching experience is helpful, it’s not necessary. Familiarity with yoga terminology and asanas is recommended for easier assimilation of course content.
Much of the course and the postures are referred to in sanskrit and english terminology. It’s certainly recommended to have a previous practice of the asana or postures as the course content will flow with more ease and understanding and be able to assimilate the information more quickly.
Is the online postnatal yoga training & baby and me yoga the same program?
Yes, our online postnatal yoga teacher training includes guidance on leading a 60-minute yoga class with babies. The course covers a wide range of topics, including Baby Yoga, Infant Massage, and more.
What is the pace of the course and time commitment?
Our online training allows you to work at your own pace, accommodating family and work demands.
We recognize the significant demands of family life and balancing work responsibilities. Our online yoga teacher training courses are designed to accommodate your schedule. You can progress at your own pace by accessing the videos and navigating through the course manual and workbook as per your convenience.
The live virtual covers most of what you need to know during class hours.
What is your refund policy?
We do not offer refunds for our online courses due to the extensive investment in course content.
What is the self-paced program?
Our self-paced postnatal yoga teacher training program allows you to access pre-recorded videos at your convenience. It does not include live zoom classes with teachers.
This 20 Hour Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training program includes:
- Daily guided yoga practices tailored for postnatal recovery and well-being.
