Prenatal Yoga classes provide an opportunity for expectant women to develop greater vitality
and awareness of their body that is home for two, as well as to deepen their relationship with their
baby. Gentle postures, breath work, vocal toning and meditation are learned to cultivate flexibility,
calm and confidence in preparation for labour and childbirth. Women are empowered to enhance their
ability to access greater relaxation, comfort, and enjoyment. Calm and flexibility ease the birthing process,
thus reducing pain and increasing the joy of giving birth. With Prenatal Yoga, women prepare for as active,
normal and natural a birth as possible. In the Prenatal Yoga classes, women experience the empowerment
and beauty of this transformational time in their lives. To be in the company of other pregnant women
is a profound opportunity for sharing common experiences while creating supportive community.
Couples Birth Preparation provides an opportunity for couples together to enhance awareness of
and confidence in pregnancy, labour and birth. Through discussion, gentle postures, breath work, vocal
toning, meditation and massage, couples cultivate greater relaxation, understanding and enjoyment for
childbearing. Couples practice postures together that are both beneficial and enjoyable during pregnancy
and during labour. Partners feel more connected to the unborn baby. The presence and encouragement of a
woman's partner is a powerful aid to labour and delivery. Partners develop greater understanding to support
the birthing mom with confidence and sensitivity.
Janice Clarfield enjoys an international reputation as an inspiring
teacher of yoga and meditation. She is based in Vancouver where she consults, teaches and maintains a
private practice of yoga therapy.
Janice is passionate about the next generation being birthed as wisely and
compassionately as possible. Janice is interested in creating optimum conditions for women and couples
to empower themselves and diminish the necessity for medical interventions. Couples access their own vast
internal resources to make wise and healthy choices, however the birthing culture is in their own community
and however the birth unfolds.
Janice sat on the Prenatal Yoga Advisory Committee for Yoga Alliance, USA. She trains professionals to work
with pregnant women and expectant couples. She is the author of a study guide for prenatal yoga teachers and
has recorded a CD for pregnancy and birth preparation. www.urbanyoga.ca
"The Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training was excellent and comprehensive. Janice's sensitivity and awareness for
the expectant mom's developing relationship with her unborn child is deeply intuitive. It was the second time
I attended that the full impact of what Janice is teaching sunk in. The teacher training has enriched all
levels of my teaching." -D Humphries

Some testimonials:
The Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training was excellent. The techniques Janice shared, the spirituality, the language, the guided imagery, the ability to hold the space for each person in such a large group, to hold boundaries, the honesty and purity - were all meaningful and powerful for me. Janice's sensitive, compassionate, light hearted but profound way of teaching has increased my ability to go deeper inside and to love, appreciate and accept myself and others. Excellent manual.

Ever since taking your workshop in Ann Arbor, MI, I have been so turned on to teaching yoga to pregnant moms. You truly were my inspiration and feel like you are still inspiring me every time I listen to your meditation CD.
Namaste,
Patty Clark
Thank you for presenting a great balance of technical and intuitive information. You presented a great spirit of sacredness and openness with a calm and supportive atmosphere. Your energy taught the essence of magic and I feel blessed.
Brenda Strong
I participated in your Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training at Kripalu. It was a life changing experience for me. The beauty of your course helped me to have the courage and strength to follow what I know is right for me in my teaching. Thank you for your gentle, empowering teaching and visualizations. You have such a good feeling about you!
Namaste,
Leslie Harry
I want to tell you how much the Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training course meant to me. It was a joy to be a student in your class. Your teaching style is very open, but never lacked direction or intent. My fears of not being able to be a good prenatal teacher because I have never had children were put to rest in your opening remarks. I feel I have received the necessary information and understanding to enable me to keep my class focused and my students safe. Thank you for developing the program. I will recommend it to my colleagues.
Blessings,
Elaine Sears, R.Y.T.
I want to thank you again for the wonderful training experience at Kripalu. It was both validating and inspiring on so many levels, and a true pleasure to connect with you. I have especially enjoyed sharing the vocal toning work with my students. Watching them open, and discover this new internal resource, has been quite exciting.
With love and light,
Sara Shelley
Such a generous sharing of a thorough curriculum. Thank you for your heart energy and wisdom that you presented with grace and poise.
Susanna Munro Cheng
Janice is an awesome teacher! She is very clear in her knowledge of the material and has her heart in her teachings. What a beautiful experience with a lovely, articulate teacher offering wise instruction and thorough explanations.
KYTA Conference
Janice is an incredible, spirited teacher. She creates a sacred and balanced environment for learning and acquiring knowledge. I especially loved the partner work and toning/sounding. I appreciated her empathy and sensitivity which I believe came from the purity of her intention. Such calm and centered presence. Thank you!
KYTA Conference
I attended your teacher training for prenatal yoga at Kripalu last year. I was 3 months pregnant at the time and I want to thank you following the incredible home birth I had because the vocal toning you taught worked incredibly well for me. I also used your guided meditation cassette in preparation for the birth which was a great tool. Thank you.
Liliane Regnier
The Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training was excellent and comprehensive. Janice's sensitivity and awareness for the expectant mom's developing relationship with her unborn child is deeply intuitive. It was the second time I attended that the full impact of what Janice is teaching sunk in. The teacher training has enriched all levels of my teaching.
Debra Humphries
Your Prenatal Teacher Training was wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. You obviously have explored all aspects of the prenatal experience, and are a wealth of knowledge about the Mind, Body, and Spirit of Pregnancy. Your style of teaching is so soothing and heartfelt. I am especially impressed with your lyrical, poetic way of imparting the information. It is like listening to a song.
Blessings,
Janice Keifer, Florida
I took your Prenatal training at Kripalu and at Om Yoga in New York. Thank you for giving me the tools and helping me to find the courage within to teach this transformative practice of trusting the pregnant body's instinct to realize the power that is embodied naturally throughout their pregnancy and labor and LIFE!
Tracy Wendroff-Rawnicki, New Jersey
I attended your Prenatal Training at Kripalu and have never forgotten just how much I enjoyed learning all of your "trade secrets." I have gone on to be blessed with a quite large prenatal following at my studio and am currently being asked to bring my classes to some of the larger companies and insurance carriers in my area. They have finally caught on to just how invaluable prenatal yoga can be to their expectant employees! You have such wonderful insight and a personal calmness that I hope one day to emulate!
Linda Antagnani, Hartford
Before the Prenatal Teacher training, I was nervous and afraid to become pregnant. I perceived pregnancy as a "medical situation". After your training I was totally comfortable in knowing that my body would take care of itself, and that pregnancy does not have to be a medical situation. Pregnancy can be a beautiful spiritual experience, and you showed me that. After the training I honestly said, ok, I'm now ready! And now, I am pregnant!
Hali McQuillan, Okotoks, Canada
This training sets the tone for empowerment for a woman/couple who is expecting and also plants the seeds of principle for intuitive parenting, for life! I feel empowered and confident. I am eager to teach yoga and conscious birthing, to do an even better job as a parent myself and am looking forward to becoming pregnant and giving birth again! Janice is a very wise woman and I consider her a mentor and a guru. If I could, I would take every workshop in every city because I appreciated it so much! I am inspired with an eagerness in my heart to share this gift that Janice shared. I thank her for appearing on my path!
Namaste, Mary Marketos, Montreal
Many thanks for the many benefits I received during the Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training. Besides all of the wonderful knowledge I received, I left feeling such a sense of strength and dignity about being a woman. I felt a feeling a "wholeness" come over me after this creative and powerful training. I have an increased sense of validity in my life. Thank you for the generous gifts you gave us.
Warm regards, Maria Dios
