Pregnancy and childbirth challenge one's body and mind, and that is why I love working with people during this special time. We will aim to cultivate wholeness, fluidity, and confidence, via movement and positive thinking, in one's body. In addition, you will be provided with ongoing postpartum and lactation support, after your baby arrives.
