"I have been doing 1:1 yoga sessions with Rowena for months and she has completed changed my association with yoga -- I now love it and look forward to our practice as a key part of my week. Rowena is incredibly knowledgable and patient. I started working with her due to some health issues, and she is so supportive and always willing to adjust or slow down to accommodate me."

Yoga for Fertility Care Classes

A Weekly Class to Support Preconception

Fridays 2:30-3:30pm

Mobu,1605 Church Street, San Francisco, CA

A common question we have when we start our family planning or formation journey is, "Do I have to stop practicing yoga or exercise? How do I manage stress and hormone levels while modifying my movement practice? How far in advance can I start nurturing my fertility?" Empowering your fertility goes beyond the clinic – it encompasses your holistic well-being -- for females and males. That's why Rowena Mittal, MS, PhD, CYT, is thrilled to share her weekly Yoga for Fertility Care classes to support your preconception whether preserving your fertility, or, trying to conceive naturally or with the help of science including the egg/sperm retrieval process from preparation to recovery and waiting periods. Rowena has tailored the 8-limbed yoga practice to meet your needs to stay physically active, mentally balanced, emotionally nourished, self-empowered, and spiritually enlightened in a safe space!
