Nicole Blackwood Yoga

Our 8-week Summer Prenatal Yoga series starts August 10!

Nourish, soothe, and honour the beautiful vessel that is doing the most amazing work of growing your baby.

A typical class includes seated, kneeling, and standing postures all designed to support your body during pregnancy and prepare your body for bringing baby into the world.

We also practice Supreme Release Yoga to release spinal and pelvic tension and restorative postures to rejuvenate.

Pranayama utilizing the breath and guided awareness practices help integrate your experience for holistic nourishment of your body, mind, and heart.

Classes also include pregnancy and birth education to help foster the connection to your innate wisdom for pregnancy, birth, and parenthood.

No previous yoga experience required. Suitable for moms 12 weeks through delivery.

Gather with us in person or online via Zoom. Recordings of the live classes will also be available for a week after each class to practice at home.

In this series we will emphasize softening and opening the realm of the heart and thoracic spine.

Landing in the body, releasing tension in the pelvis, and decompressing the spine cultivates a deeper sense of inner stability and freedom.

This offers an inner landscape where the region of your heart, including the spine attached to the ribcage, chest, and shoulders, is more available to softening, allowing you to embrace more harmony within.

Supreme Release Yoga uses supported postures with props, and sometimes your own hands and arms, to align the body in ways that encourage deep muscular release, especially in the pelvis and spine.

With practice, SRY helps unwind chronic holding patterns and creates a sense of stability, softness, and inner spaciousness.

Join in-studio or online via Zoom. All classes are recorded and available for one week. If you’re new to the practice, attending in person is recommended.

This month marks 10 years since we first opened our space!

We are so blessed to have such a dedicated community of students who continue to choose to support themselves through the practice of yoga with us.

Our sweet space has offered a refuge for so many over the years to care deeply for themselves with the guidance and nurturance of our amazing teachers.

Our hearts are full as we honour this milestone and we are deeply grateful to all of you who have been part of our story.

May we continue to share this beautiful practice in a way that meets you where you are and sustainable through all seasons of life ♥️

Honouring all those who mother ♥️

Beyond blessed to have this ray of light in my life 💫

Excited to gather with our Spring group of moms and babes tomorrow 🌼

This supportive practice helps you reconnect with your body in a space that makes room for feeding, fussing, movement, and rest.

Through yoga postures and functional movement, we create more space and freedom within while easing tension and gradually rebuilding strength.

We pay special attention to areas that often feel overworked or depleted in early motherhood, including the abdominals, shoulders, neck, hips, and low back.

Variations and props are offered so you can meet your body exactly where it is, not where you think it should be.

This class is a beautiful way to ease back into movement, reconnect with your body, and be held in a community of other moms who understand this tender, powerful season.

There is no bouncing back here.

Come exactly as you (and baby) are ♥️

Our Spring series starts this Thursday, May 7! We have a lovely group already signed up and would love for you to gather with us.

If you a feeling pressure (inner and/or outer) to “bounce back” please give yourself grace.

This transitional time of your life is asking a lot of you in so many ways. Instead, how about you explore what it would like to finding your way back to yourself in this new season without expectation.

Our Mom & Baby Postnatal Yoga classes are a supportive space to reconnect with your body, release tension, and gently rebuild strength, all with your baby right beside you.

You do not need to be anything other than where you are right now.

Feeding, fussing, resting, and moving together are all welcome here.

Come exactly as you are.

Alongside your baby ♥️
