Plus a short free pregnancy guide, Preparing Your Body For Birth, on how to use candles breath and why the RYC® Method techniques – used throughout – work.

Core & Breath Flow is a small taste of RYC® Bump & Birth – everything you need from conception to eight weeks postpartum, in one place:
You’ll receive the full Core & Breath Flow video, a gentle 15-minute prenatal workout created by Lauren Ohayon, along with a companion guide called Preparing Your Body for Birth. The guide walks through the candles breath and explains why the RYC® Method techniques used in the class work the way they do. Core & Breath Flow comes from RYC® Bump & Birth, Lauren’s online pregnancy program covering everything from conception through the first weeks postpartum, so it’s a way to feel her method in your own body before deciding whether the full toolkit is right for you.
Core & Breath Flow was created by Lauren Ohayon, who has spent more than 25 years working with pregnant and postpartum bodies as the founder of Restore Your Core®. Her approach is recommended by OB/GYNs, midwives, pelvic health professionals, and doulas in 80+ countries, and this free class is a direct piece of her RYC® Bump & Birth toolkit.
The workout runs under 15 minutes, and you’re welcome to move through it at whatever pace feels right for your body that day.
A little floor space, and a block or chair for support if you’d like one. There’s no equipment requirement beyond that, and modifications are built into every move.
Core & Breath Flow is built for pregnant bodies at any stage, with modifications offered throughout so the movement can meet you where you are that day. OB/GYNs and pelvic health professionals commonly recommend this kind of breath-linked, modifiable movement throughout pregnancy, and checking in with your own care provider is still a good idea if you have any specific concerns.
Yes, Core & Breath Flow is designed to layer onto whatever movement routine you already have, rather than replace it. Many women use it as a birth-prep and pelvic floor layer that complements running, lifting, prenatal yoga, or any other training they’re doing, and the fuller version of that layer lives in RYC® Bump & Birth.
You’ll receive an email from Lauren with your class and guide within a few minutes, so it’s worth keeping an eye on your inbox, and your spam or promotions folder in case it lands there first.
A pregnancy class built for real birth preparation generally needs to address three things: the pelvic floor’s ability to release under pressure, breath mechanics that support that release, and a nervous system that can stay regulated through intensity. Core & Breath Flow by Lauren Ohayon works with all three together, coordinating breath and movement so pelvic floor release becomes something your body practices rather than something it’s told to do.
