Georgetown Yoga for Expectant Mamas
Filed Under:
A great prenatal yoga class starts this Saturday, January 7 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. at Georgetown Yoga!
The studio is located on 31st St. NW, next to the C&O Canal. The Foggy Bottom metro stop is a 10 minute walk, there's a shuttle bus that runs every 10 minutes from Foggy Bottom and Rosslyn, and there's often street parking available in the residential areas of N St., Dumbarton, etc. Reasonably priced parking is also available nearby at the Washington Harbor lot and the Loews Theater lot on K St.
Here's a description: "This Ashtanga-influenced class is for expectant mothers at any stage of pregnancy; the yoga practice is modified to accommodate the changing needs of mothers-to-be. Learn how a yoga practice and a yogic mindset can help prepare your body and mind for childbirth. Students must consult their physician or midwife prior to beginning a yoga practice. $130 for the 8 week session."
Instructor is Devon Libby, who has trained with Beryl Bender Birch of the Hard and Soft Ashtanga Yoga Center and has completed their Yoga Alliance certification. Devon teaches throughout DC and Maryland. She is also a massage therapist and polarity practioner. And she's also a new mother -- her son was born in June 2005!
You can register online via PayPal, or by calling the studio: 202.342.7779.
