Join Bliss Baby Yoga Owner, Lead Teacher Trainer & Doula, Nadine O’Mara, for a 6 day in person Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training Immersion in beautiful Bellingen NSW Australia. This course will equip yoga teachers, yoga teacher trainees, and women’s health professionals with the skills and knowledge to safely and confidently teach yoga to students during pregnancy and postnatally.

Consider this training a retreat while gifting yourself with knowledge. Set in a private space amongst the trees with the opportunity to swim in the salt water pool on breaks accompanied by wonderful meals, this training is not only an opportunity to educate yourself but also a retreat from the rigours of day to day life.

And if you are the someone who needs to be in the room with others face to face for your training, then this is for you!

Nourishing lunches are included, you might even be inclined to pick some herbs from the garden to accompany your meals.

You will gain so much on so many levels. Nadine shares the knowledge of her 16 years supporting birth as a Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher, birth educator and doula so what you will learn goes so much further than just the curriculum and manual (which is already comprehensive).

You will also have access to 12 months complimentary access to our online Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training content that you can either start progressing through as soon as you enrol, or use it to deepen your knowledge once you start teaching.

Support as a new teacher doesn’t end with the training – as a further bonus you will have access to 12 months membership to the Bliss Baby Yoga Womb to World Membership which includes live mentoring, certification badges, premium directory listings and more.

This course includes 44 hours of face to face training.

Please note: this training has a maximum of 12 participants so you will receive a lot of personal attention. However this also means with limited spaces, this course will fill quickly so book your place now!
