IN BLOOM | PRENATAL SERIES
Next Session Starts January 10, 2026
Awaken | Inform | Connect | Transform
In Bloom: 10-Week Prenatal Series invites you into the profound journey from pregnancy through birth and into early postpartum life. This season of transformation is unlike any other, offering powerful opportunities for growth and expansion, regardless of how your birth unfolds. As we walk this path, each of us is called to find and follow our own unique way.
This intimate & informative series explores a deeper understanding of the journey through pregnancy, the stages of labor & birth, and the tenderness and adaptation in early postpartum. In Bloom provides a supportive community of mothers and a welcoming space for you to awaken knowledge, eliminate fear, get informed, connect to your body and baby, unwind from everyday stressors and claim the birth experience that is right for you!
Patti has been teaching pre/postnatal yoga & birth work since she was pregnant with her first in 2003. The In Bloom Series has grown from over 22 years of sharing in the experience of pregnancy, birth and motherhood, and is now one of her most popular courses.
”Every year this course evolves as we evolve. Every mother adding an illuminating drop to the well of knowledge from which we all grow & expand. There are many paths, I am here to help you discover yours.” ~Patti Quintero
“The In Bloom prenatal series contributed hugely to how peaceful, empowered and grounded I felt during my pregnancy. With her soulful presence, Patti creates a virtual cocoon for nurturing and authentic sharing. My baby is now 6 months old and it’s a joy to be close with fellow UMA mamas. I’m so grateful for this community. Any mom would be lucky to be part of it ❤️”
