The Sanctuary for Yoga, in Medford, is now offering Prenatal Yoga with Tricia Heiser at 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 6 to 7 p.m. on Mondays.

Pregnancy is a profound physical, emotional and spiritual experience that affects all women in different ways. Prenatal yoga can enhance this time and help to keep the body healthy, the mind stress-free, and promote a deeper connection between mother and baby. Practicing yoga also keeps expectant mothers toned and helps them better prepare for the birth of their child.

Participants will learn to focus on breathing as well as strengthening and stretching muscles that will prepare them to face the challenge of labor and birth with confidence, calm and courage. Childcare is available for mothers with young children at no extra charge.

Cost: $100 for 8 week session. Location: 43 S. Main St., Medford. For additional information, call 609-953-7800.
