Post-natal Mum & Baby Yoga - Face-To-Face
Monday 11.45am to 1.15pm
Webheath Village Hall, Heathfield Road, Webheath, Redditch, B97 5SQ
Price: £12 drop in, £90 for 10 class pass, £63 for 6 class pass.
Description / Notes: These classes are a joy & you get TWO CLASSES FOR THE PRICE OF ONE! Developed for babies from 8 weeks old, until fully mobile, you can explore movement, rhythm, touch, breathing & relaxation together. Experience the wonderful bonding opportunity that practising with your baby in this way can bring. Classes are priced per family, so no extra charge for twins/multiples. The class is split into approximately 40 minutes of post-natal mum yoga & 40 minutes for baby yoga with a mutual relaxation practice at the end. As with all baby classes, there’s a chance that you may NOT get to do any yoga in class. Don’t worry if your baby needs you to feed them, or change nappies whilst in class. You’ll still benefit from being there to observe, engage & learn the techniques so that you can take them home & practice them in your own time.
For Mum: Yoga is a wonderful way to recover, repair & restore your health & vitality following the delivery of your baby/babies. With specific focus on the post-natal body, including any caesarean-birth or assisted vaginal births, we explore how to reconnect with your body, breath & strength, as you negotiate this transition. All welcome, & you need no previous experience of yoga to enjoy these classes. Take time for yourself, improve your well-being whilst meeting other new parents & enjoying a mutually supportive & friendly group.
For Baby/Babies: Explore a lively mix of yoga-inspired practices to promote health & well-being for baby, supporting their growth & development. Learn fun ways to engage with your baby whilst respecting their unique moods & preferences. Learn to interpret your baby’s cues so that you can stimulate without overwhelming them, assist them to relax/soothe & find ways to enjoy quality time together.
