Yoga for Fertility Classes
Classes are offered in 3 formats: In-Studio, Live Online or On-Demand
In a Harvard-based study, women participating in a yoga and mind-body program conceived at a rate almost 3 times greater than women who were not in the program!
Success comes from taking charge of the things you CAN control on your fertility path, including your physical, emotional and mental health. When you join my Yoga for Fertility classes, you will learn yoga practices to support yourself and your fertility in all of these ways. And you immediately become part of a very supportive community, with opportunities to connect with others who are dealing with similar challenges. Find the support you need to realize your dream of being a parent!
My Yoga for Fertility classes are designed to help to balance the body’s hormonal system, increase energy flow, reduce stress, and nourish the reproductive organs. I offer modifications and specific yoga postures to support each cycle phase, whether you are TTC naturally, or using assisted reproductive technology. I also incorporate yoga philosophy concepts that offer a way to work with the emotional and mental stress of fertility challenges. Yoga for Fertility addresses mind, body and spirit, optimizing your ability to conceive and enjoy a healthy pregnancy.
Class enrollment is limited to 15 students, so the class environment is small, personal and very supportive. All experience levels are welcome. I also offer modifications for anyone doing assisted reproductive treatments such as IUI, IVF or FET cycles. If you are already practicing yoga, it is highly recommended that you attend a session of Yoga for Fertility to learn how to use yoga to support your fertility, and how to adapt poses during various parts of your cycle.

I developed the curriculum for the Yoga for Fertility classes, starting in 2002, based on my extensive research on yoga and its effects on hormones and the reproductive system. In class, we also use my book Yoga and Fertility, A Journey to Health and Healing. In my teaching, I draw on my 20 years of yoga teaching experience, and my own personal challenges with fertility. I am also a Certified Yoga Therapist, and a Master Teacher of Energy Medicine Yoga, so am often sprinkling powerful energy medicine techniques into my classes.

From past Yoga for Fertility students:
I would especially like to thank you for what you’re doing! I believe that without yoga I wouldn’t be happily pregnant right now. It helped me a lot on my journey and encouraged me to be positive. And I’ve learned to BREATHE! Thank you again! A.O.
“Thank you for what you do. I’m confident that my yoga practice and your support were key to me finally having a positive outcome.” G.H.
I am completely blown away! Positive HPT and just heard back from the doctor’s office….it’s Official!! I can’t even think straight – I am so stunned. I wanted to thank you for your workshop and the poses…..legs up the wall!!! Thank you ever so much! L. I.
I found yoga to be so helpful to me this past cycle, physically, mentally and spiritually. And the safe, nurturing environment of the class is a wonderful way of finding support during what can otherwise be a difficult and challenging time. Good luck to you, and to your future classes, as I’m “graduating!” E.L.
“You and your yoga class were so incredibly helpful to me. The class connected me to my body in new ways that really helped me heal from my miscarriages and prepare my body for future pregnancies. It also introduced me to wonderful supportive people that have been a huge part of my coping during this journey. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and stories with me. I am very grateful.” B.L.S.
