After retiring as a public school educator, Roberta Kelinson began a new career as a prenatal yoga instructor in the Quad City area (a region of southeastern Iowa and northeastern Illinois). Her love for empowering women to connect with their bodies during pregnancy has allowed the grandmother of two to carve a niche based on her yoga training, as well as her own pre- and post-natal experiences. Through her business, Born to Breathe, Roberta's teaching spaces include the local YWCA and an OB/GYN clinic. Triggered by the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, Roberta began online classes - thus allowing students from across the U.S. to learn from her. Looking for a prenatal yoga instructor near you?
