Please note that these options may change in 2023.

I really enjoyed this online training. Lucia is such an experienced teacher with a very positive aura and clear way of explaining. The videos are good quality. You get much input and learn a lot.

Highly recommended Thanks Lucia!

by Marika


Wonderful!

I really enjoyed it. Everything made sense and seemed suitable to teach for pregnant women. Love that the course included pranayama, mudras, and a lot of preparation for labor as well. I'm just a bit frustrated because I completed all sections but it says it's only 99% complete so I haven't received a certificate yet.

by Shivantika


Great Course

I learned so much about alternative yoga poses and caring for the mother to-be.

by Line


Fantastisch!!!!

Tijdens een eerdere yoga-opleiding zwangerschapsyoga gehad, maar nooit zo uitgebreid als deze TT. Veel tips & trics waar je echt iets aan hebt. Vol vertrouwen ga ik nu aan de slag als docente zwangerschapsyoga!

by Yolanda


Very Comprehensive!

Loved the course! But as with many things, pros and cons(mostly pros tho) The good things - Lucia is FANTASTIC, very slow, thorough and gives the important info. Everything required is presented. Cons - There is no proper controlling. We are not asked to show or present anything, I think if we have to teach outside, that is important. Also, a printed certificate would be VERY MUCH appreciated.

by Shriya


Comprehensive And Inspiring

As a yoga teacher who started the course 4 months' pregnant, I loved this course both as a student of yoga and a future prenatal teacher. It was well organised and presented, engaging and inspiring - covering a lot beyond the asanas. I really appreciated Lucia's gentle and supportive approach and the reminders about the philosophy of Hatha yoga. And Lucia was always available to answer questions!

by Nejra


Nice Course Structure

I Enjoyed this Course and as a student and also as a teacher. Further, I am happy to revisit this course content as many times as required. And I am ready to help other moms. It is much appreciated if I receive a Certificate as a hard copy also. Thank you Lucia for your kind and supportive lessons in the videos.

by Vibha


Excellent Course

This has been a very interesting journey as I'm already a Yoga Teacher and one of my private client wanted me to guide her on the mat during her pregnancy. I'm a regular practitioner but I have never been a mum so this was an amazing deep dive into discovering so much more about women's body and mind during this particular time. It gave me the right confidence to be able to continue teaching her!

by Karin


Best Gift To Give Yourself During Pregnancy

As a "feminine" yoga teacher and a pregnant woman, it was an amazing process for me, personally and professionally. Lucia is great, very pleasant, The explanations were very detailed, the manual is excellently written, the videos and photos as well. She was also available for any question. highly recommended. I continue with excitement to the postnatal course and mama&baby 🙂

by Nofar


GREAT AND INFORMATIVE COURSE

by Maria


Ready To Start Teaching

With this course, I feel like I have all the background that I would need to teach prenatal yoga. It gives a lot of background information, and very valuable information on how to get into poses and out of them. I also appreciate the variations given, and alternatives for poses.

by Melina


Great Course For Yoga Teachers And Curious Mum To Be!

I started this course to expand my knowledge as a yoga teacher but also because I am pregnant. I found in Lucia a really calm and prepared teacher,a person able to share the love for her job.The course is really complete and full of " hands on" advices.I actually thought that was much better that some courses taught in yoga studios.A useful course for mum to be that wants to expand their horizon.

by Giorgia


A Valuable Course

I think it’s a valuable course with a lot of information that's clearly explained. The course has a lot of extra's. Ofcourse there're all the different asanas but there are also some small tips about ayurveda. The visualisations are very strong, I really enjoyed those! The way Lucia perform is an inspiration for me. I really like the peace that she radiate through body language and tone of voice.

by Roos

First, I would like to say big thanks to Lucia. Before starting the course I had a lot of fear and doubts. But now I am confident and inspired to start my way in pregnancy yoga. Lucia has a great experience and shared a lot of tips. I've got my answers to very critical questions. Thank you, Lucia♡ Secondly, I want to mention the platform. It helped a lot in a learning process! Thanks a lot!🙏

by Zhuldyz


Great Yoga Prenatal Journey

I learned so much from Lucia, she is a very professional and calm teacher. The course was very informative, I think with all the stuff you need to know to start to teach prenatal yoga. I gave only one star less because I would have liked to have obligatory assignments with corrections (f.e. videos). And because of technical things I´ve missed, like to reproduce the videos faster.

by Anne-Kathrin


Thank You Lucia

I would definitely recommend this course, I did it while I was experiencing my first pregnancy and it helped me so much to understand better my feelings, my body and to know what I was able to do and what I should avoid. It was so informative, Lucia takes the time to break down the poses but also to explain how pregnancy time works. Thank you so much for this amazing journey with you !!!

by Manon


Profound Course

I really enjoyed this course. Lucia put a lot of effort and heart into it, and I really feel well educated for teaching. I'm very grateful for all the knowledge this course gave me. Thanks a lot!

by Janina


A Fabulous Course To Prepare For Teaching Prenatal Yoga To Others And For Caring For Myself

I would highly recommend this course! It is a very well structured course and Lucia is an AMAZING teacher 🙂 The manual, the exercises and the printable material is very helpful to give to clients as well. I have already taught 2 prenatal yoga sessions and my clients really enjoyed it! I am excited to continue conducting prenatal yoga on my clients and use it for my self care when I am pregnant.

by Priyanka


Excellent Course

Yoga for Pregnancy with Lucia Seglie is an excellent course and an example of how effective online learning can be. This course is delivered with such warmth and understanding of the topic. Lucia's experience and video demonstrations with her students make the all components of the yoga class very clear. I feel confident to begin teaching these classes and know that Lucia's advice is available if any questions come to mind. I would highly recommend this course to Yoga Teachers, Moms-to-be or other Healthcare professionals who have a passion in holistic antenatal classes.

by Katie Quinn


I Would Like To Give All My Appreciation...

I would like to give all my appreciation for the prenatal course I did some weeks ago. Lucia Seglie really is a great and patient teacher. I did the course during my own pregnancy and it really helped me to overcome all my hurdles and complications. She helped me with several topics. The content is very clear and I feel ready now to start giving prenatal classes. I am practising Yoga during some years now and always wanted to give classes so this online course with certification really was the best that could happen during COVID time. Thank you and I will certainly think about completing more classes with Arhanta Online Academy!

by Ellen


Highly Recommended!

I recommend pregnant yoga to all women who are expecting a baby. I started at the end of the 4th month and although I am currently able to go only once a week, I can not wait for Saturday to go to the lesson that allows me to relax, relax and listen to me through all the techniques taught by the teacher. And at the end of each lesson I feel good. The teacher is called Lucia is very prepared and conveys her passion, tranquility and patience to all of us. What can I say, highly recommended!

by Stefania Pesa


Exceptional Experience.

I've been studying with Lucia for a few years, my teacher, opened a new world for me. Her classes are a path of physical and mental well-being, and a time of day in which to become aware of oneself. If you try it you can not do without it anymore. Exceptional experience.
