Mom + Baby Yoga 

Moms need a place to go with their baby to move their bodies, breathe, connect and apply self-care. 

This series is designed for moms that have given their body, mind and heart, time to heal after birth and who’s babies have become mobile.
Classes build off of the self-care and healing focus of the Postpartum Yoga + Support series, however, will also help to build a little more strength and stamina and increase circulation and energy. 

You can expect to safely incorporate a little yoga flow movement and finish off with deep stretching and restful relaxation to provide balance the body and mind.

Focus is placed on mom (because moms need it most) with some opportunities to incorporate babies into the practice.  Classes are relaxed, casual and social, where all of the babies at some point cry, make sounds, crawl on other people’s mats and touch things, leave food crumbs on the floor and it’s all ok !!  Please feel free to bring anything (snacks, toys, etc) that you need for your baby.
