Baby Yoga and parent relaxation

Course Description

Course Description
Yoga is a non-competitive form of exercise for the body and mind; you will be encouraged to find and stay within your own personal limits, progressing at your own pace.
This gentle yoga class is for parents who are new to yoga, or those returning to a practice after having a baby, suitable for babies over 6 weeks up to crawling.
This workshop is suitable for parents along with their babies. Parents /carers are responsible for their babies at all times –there will be times when the child is not engaged in the Yoga activity and so please do bring along toys and books as you feel appropriate.
The last 30 minutes of this course will focus on parent guided relaxation to provide some techniques for parents to practice at home.
If you are pregnant, have heart problems or any serious medical condition or concerns, please check with your GP/nurse and discuss with your tutor, as classes are physically active.
The class is a wonderful way for parents to enjoy bonding with their babies through gentle exercise.
Yoga can help babies into better sleep, aid digestion, improve reflexes and their socialisation. It can also help with the parent’s well-being.
Please note that the ratio of parent to baby is 1:1.
