Pregnant Belly Casting
When you are pregnant you truly understand the remarkable capacity of the body to shift and transform. Many women take photos to commemorate this unique period when​ you are ​still ​fused with your baby.
Plaster casting is a beautiful and fun​ way to celebrate the shape that you have acquired after months of your baby growing inside you.
Come spend an hour or two in a sunny home studio in a historic loft downtown building​, enjoy a warm drink and let​ us cast your belly. ​​Afterward you can decorate it, leave it as is and mount it in a frame or directly on a wall.
We invite you to couple the casting with a one hour prenatal Thai Yoga massage with a certified practitioner in the same space the hour prior to casting.
