Darlene Jordan
Darlene’s love for yoga started at Vancouver Film School, where she immersed herself in acting, singing, and dancing. The curriculum included a daily yoga practice and soon it became her foundation for living a fulfilled life. Drawn to warmth and sunshine, she naturally gravitated towards teaching hot yoga, finding both comfort and challenge in the heat. In 2020, she earned her certification, blending yoga philosophy with ATG (Athletic Truth Group) principles to promote strength through length, full-range mobility, and joint longevity. Now, she’s currently working on completing her Prenatal & Post-Partum Yoga Teaching Certification and is already integrating her knowledge into her classes. With experience as an online coach and advocate for plant-based living, Darlene has contributed guides and e-books to the Plant-Based and Raw Vegan Bundles, sharing her insights on movement and nutrition. For 8 years, she managed a before-and after school daycare of 80-100 children, which has deepened her passion for leadership, child development and mindful movement from an early age. Darlene believes in Living in Alignment; where her actions, lifestyle, and choices reflect her truest self. Right now, alongside teaching yoga, her greatest focus is raising her son with these values, guiding him to discover his own strengths and passions.

Description

A supportive, community-centered class for pregnancy, open to all trimesters — no previous yoga experience necessary, join anytime.

Each class begins with a group discussion around pregnancy-related topics, offering space to share experiences, emotions, and insights in a safe, nurturing environment. This time for connection helps ease feelings of isolation and fosters a sense of community as you move through pregnancy.

The movement portion blends breathwork, strength-building, and pelvic floor awareness with flowing sequences and restorative poses designed to support your changing body. You’ll learn postures to help relieve common pregnancy discomforts, reduce stress, and build strength and openness in preparation for birth and postpartum recovery. Asanas (postures) are thoughtfully adapted with props like blocks, straps, and bolsters for safe and accessible movement.

Each class also includes a guided visualization or meditation — a quiet moment to connect with your baby and tune inward.

📋 Pregnancy Questionnaire
All participants are asked to complete a short health form for their first visit (see below link). You can print and complete it in advance and bring a hard copy, or fill one out at the studio. Your instructor will have a short check-in before class to talk about how your pregnancy is going, and discuss any discomforts or concerns.
