What do people ask before enrolling on the Prenatal Yoga?
What does this certificate qualify me to do?
It is an NNWA skill-enhancement certificate to teach prenatal and postnatal yoga. It is complementary wellness education, not antenatal medical care. Always encourage students to keep their doctor or midwife informed and to seek medical clearance before practising.
Do I need to be a yoga teacher already?
This is designed as a specialisation, so prior yoga teaching or a strong personal practice is recommended. Contact the team if you are unsure whether it suits your background.
How is the course delivered?
Online over six weeks, in English and Hindi, with mentor support and lifetime access to recordings.
Is it safe to teach every pregnant student?
Not without care. You will learn contraindications and when to refer students back to their healthcare provider. Some conditions require medical clearance before any yoga practice.
Are there payment options?
EMI options are available to spread the cost, and your NNWA certificate is issued on completion.
