Mother's Embrace Yoga studio is owned by Linda B. Antignani, Certified Prenatal Yoga Specialist/Advocate & Yoga of the Heart Specialist. Linda's background includes Hatha certification from The Aura Wellness Center in Providence, RI followed by two separate prenatal certifications, one from Aura Wellness and the other from Kripalu Yoga Center in Massachusetts (with Janice Clarfield). She opened her first studio in 2005 on Howe Avenue in Shelton, just above H&R Block. In September 2006, due to the need for more space, the studio was relocated to a storefront shop at 410 Howe Avenue.
