Our Prana Mama PYTT course ensures that all of our students graduate with a thorough understanding of how to guide and support their students through the prenatal and postnatal experience. Our unique approach not only provides you with a comprehensive education in this specialty subject matter, but also supports you to develop your personal brand by helping you to expand your own teacher toolkit.

 

Our main goal is to train great teachers! In addition to learning the outlined material, you will work one-on-one with our Lead Teacher throughout the course to develop your Prenatal Yoga Teacher Portfolio.
