Prenatal/Postnatal Bhakti Yoga Series
New to the studio! Join Miranda Calmjoy for this six week series for people in the perinatal period and their support people. Babies up to one year old are welcome.
Bhakti is a devotion yoga practice. Classes will include asana, meditation, chanting, storytelling, and deep relaxation.
We know there are clear inequities for pregnancy-related health outcomes for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). Structural racism, implicit bias, chronic stress, and unequal access to care all contribute to the health of pregnant people and their children. Offering pre/postnatal yoga free of charge to BIPOC is one small thing we can do at True Self Yoga to chip away at these issues!
BIPOC folks are invited to purchase a 10 class Prenatal Yoga Pass and receive a 100% discount using the code PRENATAL at checkout. This pass can be used for all 3 of our regular Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga classes offered Sunday and Monday mornings, and Thursday evenings.
Prenatal Yoga
Prenatal yoga builds strength, resilience, and body awareness that will support a strong, supple body in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Each class offers active yoga postures and soothing relaxation poses to leave you feeling strong, balanced, and rejuvenated.
Combined Prenatal/Postnatal Yoga meets Sunday mornings, 8:45-10:00am, taught by Jade.
Postnatal Yoga
Postnatal Yoga supports caregivers to develop their relationships with their bodies, their babies, and their communities. Poses target regaining strength postpartum and relieving baby-holding muscle tension. This class is best suited to caregivers and babies who are not yet walking (<1 year). Any caregiver is welcome, babies welcome but not required!
Postnatal Yoga is every Monday from 10:30-11:45am with Kelli Mae.
Partner Prenatal Workshops
In a safe and supportive environment, pregnant women and birth partners will enjoy an afternoon connecting, relaxing, and preparing for labor. Couples will learn key positions for laboring and birth, and we will empower partners so that each woman can receive optimal support during labor. A great date for expectant parents!

Family Yoga Workshops
Playful yoga poses, games, stories, partner poses, massage, and more help children develop sensory balance, body awareness, and loving communication. Family Yoga Workshops are for adults and children of all ages to participate in partnership.
At True Self, we believe that Yoga truly is for everybody, at every age. Our Family and Kids Yoga classes offer children a playful, imaginative exploration of the practice of Yoga. Children are natural Yogis, and our trained Children’s Yoga teachers are committed to nurturing the innate wisdom in each child.
Our wide range of Kids and Family Yoga classes offer developmentally appropriate practices for children and families of every age and type. Tiny babies are welcome at Postnatal Yoga, as well as all of their caregivers (not just moms!). Little Movers and Family Yoga give children the security of practicing with a trusted caregiver, while adults rekindle their love of play alongside their children. Preschool age children thrive in Storytime Yoga classes, bringing books to live creatively with Yoga movements. And school age children develop social skills, body awareness, emotional balance, and confidence as they explore Yoga principles and postures through relatable and engaging themes.
Imagine the world where children learn to love themselves, care for each other, and access a deep trust in their inner wisdom. At True Self, we believe bringing Yoga to children is vital to supporting healthy, balanced humans, and to creating a kinder, happier world.
With their combined yoga and meditation experiences and with deep roots in the Olympia community, husband-and-wife team, Vajra Romano and Christina Lagdameo, have established True Self Yoga with the mission to bring out your highest good.
