Mother and Baby Yoga
Take some time to focus on yourself, in the company of your little one. Mother and Baby Yoga can help you heal, strengthen and nurture yourself after the transformative process of childbirth and experiencing the challenges becoming a new mother.
Our small, friendly classes are also a lovely way to meet other new mums and babies.

When to Practise:
It is important to rest initially. The first 6 weeks after birth are a time for bonding with the baby and for the mother to recover. By the end of the first eight weeks of the postnatal period, women should be ready to return to their regular practice, but it is important to listen to what your body is ready to do.
This class is suitable for babies aged 6 weeks to pre-crawling.
Women with a yoga practice prior to pregnancy should be careful and not rush back into their usual yoga practice. Consult your GP for advice on when to resume practising.
