Class 2- Breath, Core + Chest Opener
Step 1: Immediately After Birth
•
15m
This is the second class in your immediate postpartum series—designed to continue your healing with intention. You’ll work in a side-lying position (with a pillow), using breath to re-expand the ribs and access deep core support.
We focus on side and back breathing to help regulate the nervous system, reduce pressure on the pelvic floor, and begin to rebuild core function safely.
This class also includes a gentle chest opener to balance the forward rounding that naturally comes with holding and feeding your newborn. It’s restorative, effective, and meant to help you feel more supported and open—right from the start.
