“As an ob-gyn, it is the biggest honor and joy to be able to observe and accompany the patient’s transition from pregnancy to becoming a mom. As a mom, giving birth was the most amazing experience ever. I never thought my body had that much strength and power in a moment. When I was more than exhausted, my body knew exactly what to do. Thanks to Desi and her prenatal yoga class, I learned to focus on my body, to trust and believe in its strength and power, and to keep on breathing calmly in the biggest pain. Thank you, Desi! I can’t put it into words how much you helped us.”
—Conny Fendler, MD, Obstetrics and Gynecology Physician
