Breath, Body & Baby Program

A truly integrative pregnancy and postpartum breathwork course—designed with the pelvic floor, nervous system, and real life in mind.

Pregnancy changes everything—your body, your breath, your bandwidth.

Breath, Body & Baby is a guided, self-paced course that gives you real tools to support your pelvic floor, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your body—before and after birth. No pressure. No perfect. Just one intentional breath at a time.

This isn’t just a “relax and breathe” class. This is functional, restorative breathwork rooted in:

  • Pregnancy & postpartum physiology

  • Pelvic floor science

  • CO₂ tolerance

  • Habit-stacking

  • Nervous system regulation

  • And real-life experiences of motherhood

Here’s What Our Founding Mama’s Have Said…

  • “I try to spend more time thinking about my breathing than I did before, and making sure I'm expanding my ribcage. I love the exercises that Leanne showed us as well. I am trying to stay as mobile as possible during this pregnancy, and doing those exercises and stretches seem to help.”

    Tiffany S. (20 weeks pregnant, second pregnancy)

  • “I use breathwork with baby or when breastfeeding, and I pay attention to posture when lifting/handling baby for better pelvic floor health.”

    Sarah C. (Postpartum, 5 months)

  • “Even though I’m long past pregnancy and early motherhood, I found the early modules useful — especially the focus on breath before sleep. I’ve been using that nightly. And I really appreciated the sense of community this course builds.”

    Laura B. (20+ years postpartum)

  • “The course has been very useful. I’m more aware of my breathing now in everyday tasks — and especially before bed. The breath exercises really help me settle down, so I’ve made them part of my bedtime routine.”

    Tiffany S. (20 weeks pregnant, second pregnancy)
