From the very beginning of life when a baby is created a magical journey begins. The nurturing of both parent and baby during pregnancy, birth and beyond is essential for happy and healthy development. A holistic approach to birth and parenting, integrating mind, body and emotions will promote a deeper understanding of oneself and our relationship with others.

Baby yoga provides the stimulation of touch, movement and rhythm, as well as the benefits of deep relaxation. The series of sequences encourage flexibility and bring balance and harmony to the body systems. Each movement supports the baby’s individual development and can help to settle babies and to improve sleep patterns.
