Question 1

Can I take the course while pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely!  Please let us know when you register for the course and how far along you are.  We are happy to modify any stretches needed if you would like to participate, or you are more than welcome to just watch.

Question 2

What is the recommended time span for taking all the modules?  Can I take them back to back?

Accepted Answer

All modules must be taken in order.  It is highly recommended Module 1 & 2 be taken back to back or within 2 months.  After that, it is good to have a gap before attending each next module for instructors & students to full grasp each level of material.  Everyone learns at a different pace, average time is normally 3-4 months gap before Module 3, and 4-6 months gap before Modules 4 & 5.
