We are here to support one another. You are welcome to come 5-10 minutes early and can stay a bit afterwards to chat and connect.

Nurture yourself while nurturing your baby. Build connections with other local parents and enjoy this very special time with baby…. cherishing these tender moments together.

A class of community and connection, in a supportive & accepting space.  You can let baby sleep next to you, or include baby in the poses. We adapt to the babies and what kind of day we are all having.  It is a casual class, where you don't have to worry about baby crying or making noises. It is sometimes a chatty class and sometimes a very quiet and relaxing class.  Every week is different so we just go with the flow.  There is no judgment, only love and acceptance! The yoga sequence will be 1 hour long with time after to enjoy tea and build connections.

What else to expect
  • spinal decompression with miracle balls
  • self-massage with therapy balls
  • restorative yoga
  • gentle stretching
  • sound healing with crystal singing bowls and other instruments (the babies love them!)
  • very gentle strengthening
  • mindful movement
  • breathing with pelvic floor activation and relaxation
  • space to modify poses and find what feels good in your body

It is recommended to wait at least 6 weeks postpartum before practicing any physical activity.  Although these classes are incredibly gentle. If there is anything you're not ready for, there are ways to modify to make it even more gentle. You could even just come to connect with others, enjoy a relaxing setting with your baby, listen to the singing bowls, and breathe.  This class is suitable for everyone.
