Empowering People at All Stages of Reproductive Aging
Meant to Pause Yoga is dedicated to supporting people through the menopause transition with compassionate, evidence-based yoga classes and workshops.
We aim to create a safe and inclusive environment where strength, understanding, and self-trust can grow.
Menopause is often described as a natural part of aging, yet it represents a significant biological, neurological, hormonal, and psychosocial transition.
No two menopause journeys are the same. Our approach honors each individual’s lived experience while offering practical tools for resilience, clarity, and wellbeing.
