FAQs

When is the best time in pregnancy to sign up?

As soon as you are ready. Some women sign up right after they find out they're pregnant; others wait until the second trimester. While some don't learn about this priceless experience until their third trimester. When you are ready, it is the best time.

Do I need any prior yoga or fitness experience?

No. For many women, pregnancy is their first experience with yoga.

How should I prepare?

  • Create a space for yourself to lay down and stand up with arms extended into a 'T' shape.
  • Have a notebook/journal and pen to write in.
  • Gather any yoga props or household items to support your practice. (More details in portal.)
  • Wear comfortable, breathable, flowy clothing. Layers work well.
  • Consider removing any wearable smart devices, watches, and turn phone on silent.

How early should I login before class?

Arrive 10-15 minutes early to set up, use the restroom, and settle in.

Will I be required to share during circle time?

While participation is encouraged, only ever share what you feel comfortable with. 

Confidentiality and discretion are essential for me. How do I know this group will uphold these values?

With over 15 years of guiding women's circles - confidentiality and discretion are addressed immediately in your first module; including seven other principles of security and trust.

Reclaiming our time together as women - including high-profile participants - invites vulnerability and supportive warmth uniting all of us to meet each other's journey with acceptance, love, respect, and privacy.

If at any time you are concerned about confidentiality or discretion, please contact me immediately.

Prenatal Yoga Testimonials

"I actually remembered something Elise said which helped me deliver, I encountered some difficulty at the end while pushing then I remembered Elise saying remember to relax and relieve some tension while in labor as soon as I recalled that I was able to deliver my son out in a few pushes."

"Thank you for a wonderful prenatal yoga experience. I was a bit apprehensive about taking yoga because I hadn't started earlier. Your breathing techniques as well as birthing positions guided me greatly during my labor day. It eased my labor process and I swear by it now."

"Elise's prenatal yoga class was my first experience with yoga... This yoga class had an enormous impact on the day of my daughters birth, and for that I am forever grateful to Elise. I recommend her class to everyone!"

"I have a new found love for this community and pregnancy - which I never knew existed. Thank you! You have changed and deepened my perspective."

"I truly loved and looked forward to this class each week. It really helped me relieve stress and focus on baby while preparing my mind and body for birth."

"Thank you for everything! It has truly been such an amazing experience. I remember you saying to me that this was my journey and I just needed to accept whatever baby was going to do. Those words rang in my mind and helped me embrace everything."
