Yoga for Fertility classes and workshops are designed for women or couples who are trying to conceive, either naturally or through assisted reproductive technology.  Spouses/partners are welcome and will also benefit from attending.

In the classes, we will use specific yoga postures for each phase of your monthly cycle,  to stimulate and tone the reproductive system.  The body's hormone levels can be regulated by addressing the endocrine and nervous systems through yoga postures, breathing and relaxation practices.   Chronic stress has been shown to adversely affect fertility, and yoga is a well-recognized stress-reducer.  In a recent Harvard-based study, women participating in a yoga and relaxation program increased their chances of pregnancy by almost 3 times. 

Classes are based on Lynn’s  20+ years of yoga practice, 12 years of yoga teaching, and her personal experience with fertility challenges. These gentle classes use yoga poses, breathing practices and relaxation techniques to balance the body’s hormonal system, increase energy flow, reduce stress, and nourish the reproductive organs. 
 
The class environment is small, personal and very supportive.  No previous yoga experience is necessary. If you are currently taking a yoga class, 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.
