Teaching PreNatal yoga is always a wonderful experience. The radiant energy that women have while pregnant, the humorous attitude, and the natural bonding that takes place in a prenatal yoga class is always beautiful. Recently, after teaching class at Namaste Williamsburg, my student requested to stay after to do a shoulder stand. There are many reasons and contraindications why I usually avoid inversions in Prenatal, however my student insisted that she is comfortable with the practice. She began with legs up the wall, and gracefully lifted off into shoulder stand. She was amazing! While it is true that shoulder stand and inversions make women feel good because of the reverse pressure of gravity on their body, it is still something to do for a limited time, with permission of your physician and under supervision.
