7:30 - 9:00 PM

During this class with Michelle Goitia, couples will develop a deeper connection to body, breath, and heart for the big day.  We will be doing lots of partner yoga exercises which will encourage couples to tune in while listening and communicating with their partner. We learn so much about our bodies when we are on the mat.  This workshop will help us listen to that voice that tells us to move deeper inside to connect to the here and now.  It's a wonderful opportunity for us to connect to our partner's rhythm.




7:00-9:00 PM
In this class with Jade Newirk, we will discuss breastfeeding, safe formula preparation, and newborn care to get you off to a great start in the first few weeks after bringing your baby home. We will cover newborn feeding behaviors, how to know if a baby is latched well if the baby is getting enough, normal breastfeeding complications, and when to call for help.
We will also discuss diapering and umbilical cord care, bathing, body language, and safe sleep practices and how they pertain to both breastfed and bottle-fed babies. We will touch on healthy sleep habits, swaddling, and other techniques to help you soothe your baby.
***This class is designed to be taken during your pregnancy or before the baby arrives.***



6:00 - 7:00 PM
