Margaret Kirschner - Prenatal Yoga, Certified Birth Doula

Margaret Kirschner

Prenatal Yoga
Certified Birth Doula


Margaret views birth as an emergence rather than an emergency. Her aim is to guide pregnant women back home to their bodies and their babies. In her prenatal yoga class she combines appropriately challenging asana (postures) with empowering imagery and natural breathwork that points to our innate capacity to ride the waves of sensation without resistance. She provides a powerful shift in perspective about our bodies, our babies, the birth itself, and our ability to be in the moment. She offers a practice that is both strong and soft; precisely the qualities moms-to-be need for conscious birthing and parenting.

“It is a joy and a privilege to empower women and ultimately families, in shifting their perspective of birthing away from anxiety and fear, and toward love and the celebration of the mystery and power of having a baby.”

Margaret has trained with Janice Clarfield, an internationally revered prenatal yoga teacher. She is also a birth doula certified through DONA (Doulas of North America) offering a range of supportive services as part of the birth journey.
