Yoga Mama Co-op Now Offering Yoga Classes for Moms in Marin

Marin Mommies presents a guest article from the new Yoga Mama Co-op, now offering online and in-person yoga classes for Marin moms and moms-to-be.

Yoga Mama Co-op grew into being out of the invaluable community originally established by Shannon Kozubik of the Pomegranate Center in San Anselmo. Upon the closing of Pomegranate, long time teachers at the center Amber Charne, Veronica Geretz, and Natalie Scheuring felt compelled to continue the work of supporting women during the various stages of parenting through yoga, mindfulness, and community.

Pregnancy and child rearing, as any parent knows, can be a fulfilling and beautiful experience. It can also be unsettling and at times stressful. At Yoga Mama Co-op, we believe practicing yoga with the same group of women each month deepens one’s practice, with the added benefit of fostering a deeper, more supportive bond between practitioners in similar stages of life and parental development. Each yoga pod is tailored to address the physical needs for the group and additional time is allotted after each class to connect with one another. All classes are designed to increase strength, flexibility, and give tools for attuning to breath in an effort to build more awareness to the present moment.

We offer three pods that run on a monthly basis: Prenatal, New Mom, and Mom Pod.
