SHEFFIELD YOGA SCHOOL

Mother & Baby Yoga is great for babies as well. It combines gentle stretches with nursery rhymes and gives mums guidance in ‘relaxed holding’, which helps to soothe babies.

The class is friendly and informal and your baby’s needs (feeding, changing, sleeping etc) always come first. The aim is to do what you can whilst having fun with your baby!

Yoga Postures
All the yoga postures are adapted so that you can do them with your baby.

We take care of the spine and shoulders to help cope with the physical demands of feeding and carrying a baby.

Specific postures are used to restore the strength of the abdominal muscles and pelvic floor which can be weak after pregnancy and childbirth.

Breathing exercises
The first few months after child birth are sometimes difficult and the right breathing techniques can really help.

You will learn breathing techniques to help you and your baby relax during feeding.

We teach breathing exercises which tone core abdominal muscles.
