The Prenatal Adaptations Add-On is a 10-page expansion designed to help Yoga Professionals confidently integrate prenatal considerations into general adult yoga classes—without stepping outside the Scope of Practice for RYS 200, 300, or 500-hour programs.
 
This Add-On gives trainees a clear understanding of how pregnancy can influence anatomy, alignment, and energy, while emphasizing safety, accessibility, and inclusivity for all practitioners. It provides foundational guidance—not a prenatal certification—so teachers learn how to adapt poses, language, and sequencing to support pregnant students with respect and confidence.
 
Inside, you’ll find:
Core principles of prenatal awareness within the general yoga classroom
Red flags and contraindications every teacher should know
Philosophical and energetic perspectives on pregnancy in yoga
Sample modifications and supportive props for key poses
 
By bringing this Add-On into your manual, you empower trainees to meet diverse needs with compassion, deepen their understanding of anatomy and ethics, and foster truly inclusive spaces—aligned with modern standards of care and the Yoga Alliance Scope of Practice.
 
Note: Manuals do not include this feature unless the Add-On is selected at checkout.
 
DISCLAIMER: This material is for educational purposes only and is appropriate for inclusion in 200-, 300-, and 500-hour teacher training programs. It does not qualify as a prenatal yoga teacher certification.
