MOTHER & BABY yoga in barnet

We run in person classes at venues in high barnet .

“The class was so friendly & I ended up with a lovely group of friends who have been instrumental in helping us settle into the area.”

Viparita karani

A restoration pose we use at the end of each class, a blanket can be placed under the pelvis for additional support. Great for circulation, digestion, calming the mind and tired legs.

Postnatal exercise

Starting to become more active postnatally is really important not only for the body but also for the mind. No previous yoga experience is necessary. The class will meet you where ever you are that day

motherhood

As a mother of two very loud and active children, I bring into my teaching empathy towards new mothers and the tiring and some times rocky journey that first year can seem. By creating a friendly fun and supportive group I hope to make this new journey for you somewhat easier.

FAQ…

What is a Starter session?

This session is for new joiners, who are just starting to come back to classes again, the session focuses on closing the body, connecting with the pelvic floor, realigning pelvis hips and a taster of what to expect when you join the class.

What happens if my baby is unsettled in the class?

This is totally normal, many babies cry during the class some just need some time to adjust to the new enviroment. No body minds if your baby is crying thats how babies communicate.

What if my baby is asleep can I still join in?

The class is always adapted for you if your baby is sleeping so you can still join in with the exercises baby free.

I have never done yoga before does that matter?

No yoga experience is necessary we are not interested in the perfect downward facing dog, no one cares. This is time for you to stretch safely and help to realign and close your body.

I had a Cesearian birth is it ok for me to join the class?

Prior to you attending I will offer you a 20mins no obligation check up and give you some useful tips and check that you are safe to attend. You will have also already had your 6wk postnatal check with a doctor. But we do some extra checks that they don’t have time for.

I haven’t been to any classes yet and am worried about the pandemic?

The classes are held in large halls, we keep a outside door open and request in the class whats app group that everyone does their lateral flow test before attending.

Where do I park I am worried about bringing baby out for the first time to somewhere I don’t know.

All venues have free parking and a car park next to the hall so you don’t have far to bring everything in to class.

What do I need to bring?

I provide tea and biscuits at the end! Bring a yoga mat, something soft for baby to lie on like a changing mat or a big blanket, and wear a extra layer as the door is open. And just bring yourself just as you are.
