Mom & Baby Yoga

This 1.25 hour yoga class is appropriate for moms and their babies who are at least six weeks old but not yet crawling. The yoga class begins with Itsy Bitsy Yoga for babies as developed by Helen Garabedian, creator of Itsy Bitsy Yoga®. Babies are then settled comfortably on the floor while moms do yoga, which is designed to help relax, stretch and tone the body. The last part of the class is learning infant massage which can stimulate infant development, and promote attachment between caregiver and child.

The yoga class structure is extremely accommodating, and moms are encouraged to take care of their baby’s needs whenever necessary and then rejoin the class. There is ample space for breastfeeding, soothing and diapering babies in the room, so our Northern Virginia moms can still be a part of the Prenatal, and Mom and Baby Yoga classes. There is always time at the end of class for discussion, and moms appreciate the support and wisdom shared by the group. Classes are held at 101 S. Whiting Street, Suite 314, Alexandria, Virginia.
