Who are your hosts?

Amanda is a mother, long-time birth doula and leading acupuncturist for the childbearing years in Vancouver BC.  She is a lover of nature and helping people discover more health and freedom in their bodies.

Liza is also a mother and long-time birth doula, who found her way to birth work through her yoga path.  She also teaches Prenatal and Baby&Me Yoga in Vancouver, BC.  When she's not busy with birth related things, she is consumed with RE-discovering the world through the lens of her 3y/o daughter whom she birthed at home.

​

​

Do I need to have previous yoga experience?

Nope!  We will do a gentle yoga practice catered to the participants.  Liza always welcomes her students to modify or skip poses if they need to.  Pregnancy is all about tuning into your body and listening to the messages it sends you.  If you have specific questions about the yoga portion of the retreat or know you are working with particular discomforts in your pregnant body, email Liza here.

​

​

Do I have to do acupuncture?  I have questions!  Email Amanda here.

Absolutely not!  Everything is optional.  If you've never tried it, we encourage you to try it with us.

​

​

Can I bring my own food?

Yes, by all means.  If you have certain dietary restrictions or preferences, particularly during this pregnancy, please feel free to pack what you and your baby like!  Email us if questions/concerns.

​

​

​​Do I have to dance?  

Only if the mood and grooves strike you.  Don't rule it out today!

​

​

Do I have to have my picture taken?  

Only if you want to!  We sometimes have a photographer with us to document the day (can be used for marketing purposes) and document YOU, if you so wish.  If you love this person's style, get connected for your very own pregnancy photoshoot to follow.
