Yoga for a Healthy Pelvic Floor
Sunday 3/15 2-4pm at Total Body Yoga in Mundelein
A collaborative class with Dr. Rachel and Stephanie Bersh, RYT that will help you connect with your pelvic floor. In yoga, our practice may focus on stacking our bones and finding proper alignment, but we often neglect to focus our practice around our inner core. The pelvic floor is the base of the inner core and needs to work with our breath and core musculature. Common signs of pelvic floor dysfunction are pelvic pain, low back, hip or groin pain, pain with intercourse, and incontinence (leaking urine with sneezing, laughing, or exercising).
In this workshop, you will gain a more in-depth understanding of the pelvic floor and common issues, the connection with breathing, and ways to help create a healthy pelvic floor. We will move through yoga poses that first facilitate relaxation of the pelvic floor, and then progress to poses that focus on strengthening. Cost is $40. Sign up here.

"The Pilates PT is absolutely amazing! Pilates 101 was a perfect intro to the Pilates reformer and other Pilates equipment in a perfect small group environment. Rachel is SO informative and has such great equipment, I recommend Pilates 101 for anyone who would like to learn effective Pilates form from a true expert." -Shelly
