Mom & Baby Yoga

You and your baby will both make friends while you stretch out your body in a "mom and baby" yoga class

The benefits of Postnatal Yoga Classes are:

They help restore your body – the poses are geared toward the post-pregnancy body. There is emphasis on the parts of the body that need it the most such as upper back, neck, shoulders, abdominals and the pelvic floor.
Rejuvenate your mind – the deep breathing can help calm a tired and overwhelmed new parent’s mind.
They are a social network – yoga classes are a great way to get to know other new parents that are going through the same things that you are
Ability to look after baby – since everyone taking the class is a mother with a baby, you can feel comfortable looking after your little one when needed, be it nursing or changing a diaper in the middle of class.

There are also benefits to the babies:

Experience of movement combined with touch provides awareness of their bodies
Yoga postures bring state of deep relaxation and promote deep sleep
All the baby’s bodily systems are stimulated, including the digestive and nervous systems
Baby yoga helps the parent and baby to get to know each other, enhancing communication between them
Through the high quality attention the baby receives from it’s parents , the baby learns to interact with others and play actively
The baby’s enjoyment of the positive stress of yoga will increase the babies ability to cope with future challenges
Great place for babies to start interacting with other babies
