Whole Birth® Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training with
Robin Sale

Greetings Hudson Valley birth folk.
I'm still new to your region... just settling in to
life in Hastings with my family, but i thought I'd let
you know about a training I'm organizing in September.
The workshop will be held in Manhattan, but at the
Northernmost tip of the island. Very easy access from
Northern regions.
Contact me if you'd like more info.
Mary Esther Malloy-Hopwood, CCE

I'm excited to announce that this September, Robin
Sale, the originator of Whole Birth Yoga, will be
bringing the Whole Birth Prenatal Yoga Teacher
Training to New York for the first time.

The Whole Birth® Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training is
open to all perinatal health professionals, childbirth
educators, doulas, and yoga instructors interested in
offering a complimentary, mind-body approach to
pregnancy, birth and parenting. Robin credits much of
the inspiration for Whole Birth to the pioneering work
of Gayle Peterson, Ph.D., and her holistic model of
childbirth preparation and the widely acclaimed work
of Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. and his colleagues at the
Center For Mindfulness in Medicine, Health and Society
at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center.

Check out www.wholebirth.com for more information
about Robin Sale and Whole Birth Yoga. For additional
information on the New York training, contact me at

Thanks.

Doulas, Labor and Delivery Nurses, Childbirth
Educators, and Midwives can empower their
patients/clients with new and effective tools for
coping with labor and skillful ways to enhance their
comfort in pregnancy. Whole Birth® Prenatal Yoga
and Support Classes also create and strengthen a
needed sense of community and friendship among the
participants with a forum for discussing issues
pertinent to pregnancy, birth and family making.
This training will also provide a rich understanding
of
the body/mind dynamics of the childbearing year to
encourage a woman's trust in her own resources for
birth and mothering.

The Whole Birth® Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training
course is 5 days in length and includes a balance of
experiential and didactic learning. Topics will
include:

* The Body/Mind Dynamics of the Childbearing
Year
* Anatomy and Physiology for Prenatal Yoga

* Teaching pain management yoga skills for labor

* Group Facilitation Skills

* Themes for Group Inquiry

* Teaching from the Heart

* Teaching from the Body

* Yoga Postures for Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum

* Poses to avoid & poses to suggest for specific
pregnancy related discomforts.

educational forum offering innovative classes, teacher
training and educational materials that cultivate a
deeper understanding and trust in the everyday miracle
of pregnancy, birth and family life.

California and offers Whole Birth Yoga and support
classes, New Parent and Baby movement, yoga and
support classes, day long retreats for pregnant
couples, Whole Birth Yoga teacher trainings, and
counseling for the childbearing years. In addition, we

Whole Birth Resources was founded in 1999 by Robin
Sale, Childbirth Educator/Counselor, Perinatal
Hypnotherapist and Prenatal Yoga Educator. She brings
over 23 years of experience supporting women and their
families during the childbearing years to honor the
sacred and vital work of welcoming our children into
the world.

Whole Birth Yoga is a synthesis of Robin's long time
love of yoga, birth, dance, meditation, the natural
world and her observation over many years of how these
things have supported women to cross the bridge into
motherhood.
