About Full Moon Yoga and Birth
Megan is a passionate meditation teacher, yoga instructor, childbirth educator, and birth professional. She uses yoga, science, intuition, philosophy, and reiki to communicate with and help others. Through her practice she is able to use her passion for birth and families to help support and empower each individual she works with.
Megan studied yoga through the Pacific Yoga Teacher Training Program in Seattle, WA starting in 2009 and earned her 200 and 500 hour certifications. She continues to study Vijnana-inspired Yoga with Kathryn Payne. She was given the amazing opportunity to study with Colette Crawford at the Seattle Holistic Center for 3.5 years, immersing herself in the study of prenatal yoga, childbirth education, and energy work.
From her years of training and practice Megan developed her own birth class - Mind-Body-Breath - using yoga, meditation, and a non-mainstream approach to birth into a complete and unique childbirth education class. She continues to take classes that add to the richness of this birth class, utilizing doula trainings, hypnosis-centered classes, as well as meditation trainings. From 2015-2020 Megan attended many births as a doula, helping her to cultivate a better understanding of this amazing process.
Megan is a Certified iRest Yoga Nidra Instructor. Yoga Nidra is an ancient and powerful mindfulness practice, a type of guided meditation, and iRest is a therapeutic application of this practice. Megan uses the techniques and philosophy of iRest in meditations, yoga nidra classes, Mind-Body-Breath Birth Classes, and her Full Moon Fertility Program. Research shows that this practice can alleviate symptoms of depression, PTSD, chronic pain, insomnia, addiction, and anxiety.
In 2016 Megan completed the Spinning Babies Professional Certification with Gail Tulley, and has enjoyed sharing this paradigm with her students. Megan has also taken levels 1-3 Reiki Training with Melissa Foley of Guided Ground and loves integrating reiki into her work.
In 2019 Megan completed the Yoga for Fertility Teacher Training with Lynn Jensen to deepen her education and understanding of the struggles many families encounter on their road to having children. She will be using these teachings combined with iRest Yoga Nidra to serve her community with compassion and dedication.
With a strong affinity to mindful movement, meditation, yoga nidra, and philosophy, Megan is able to offer a unique view and presentation of these areas of study. She is down-to-earth, quick to laugh, and loves seeing the changes in students over time. Her classes are fun, relaxed and accessible to all.
