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 BARNET
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…MOTHER AND BABY YOGA NEAR ME
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 can’t attend all of the classes can I just pay weekly?
The class are booked as a block over 2 months, the cost of the block is split between the two months so minimum payment is 2 months after which you can finish any time the next month, notice just needs to be given before the new month starts.
What do I get for my monthly payment?
You can attend up to two classes per week, after 4 months you can attend any of my other yoga classes included in this.
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.
