Discover Prenatal Yomassage®, a deeply relaxing hybrid experience built on three core components: touch, stretch, and breath, and shaped entirely around pregnancy. Classes are kept intentionally small, so each guest receives real hands on time and individual attention throughout. This isn’t a typical prenatal yoga class or a typical massage. It’s a unique blend that offers the benefits of both, inviting you to rest and release at your own pace, in whatever way feels right for your changing body.
What to Expect
You’ll be guided into a series of supported, restorative poses using bolsters, blankets, and yoga blocks, all arranged to cradle your changing shape and take the weight off wherever it’s needed. Every pose is adapted for pregnancy, focusing on the low back, hips, and shoulders where so much of the strain tends to gather. Once you’re comfortably positioned, your instructor will move through the room offering hands on massage techniques: soothing strokes, gentle pressure point work, and calming touch, paired with cues for slow, intentional breathing. Soft music sets the mood throughout, and essential oils may be used if the group is comfortable with them. If anyone has a sensitivity, oils will be skipped for that session. You’ll stay fully clothed throughout, so there’s no need to worry about oils on skin or removing layers.
No yoga experience, flexibility, or strength is required. Come as you are, wherever you are in your pregnancy, and let yourself be guided into deep relaxation at whatever pace feels comfortable for you.
Why Touch, Stretch, and Breath?
Touch, stretch, and breath are simple but powerful tools for building awareness of where and how the body holds stress and tension, something that shifts week to week during pregnancy. Together, they support the nervous system, helping shift it into a calmer, more restorative state within a safe, supportive environment. This shift can ease anxiety, support a sense of calm, and promote deep relaxation for you and your baby. Many guests find that the experience offers more than physical release. It can also bring a sense of emotional grounding and a quiet, deeper connection to themselves during a season of big change.
What to Bring
Just wear comfortable, loose fitting clothing you can move and relax in. We provide all props (bolsters, blankets, eye pillows, yoga blocks) and mats. Feel free to bring a water bottle for after class.
Who Should Attend
This class is perfect for:
- Expecting parents at any stage of pregnancy
- Anyone dealing with the aches of a changing body, especially low back and hip tension
- People curious about yoga but intimidated by more active prenatal classes
- Massage lovers looking for a group setting alternative
- Anyone wanting a calm, restful self care ritual before baby arrives
Class Details
Classes are kept small to ensure everyone receives personalized hands on attention. Please arrive 10 minutes early to settle in and get comfortable. Due to the hands on nature of this class, please let your instructor know in advance of your trimester, any injuries or sensitivities, and any areas you’d prefer not to be touched. Your comfort and choices are always respected.
Space is limited, so book your spot early!
