Precious Yogi Babies - Baby Yoga
(3 to 12 months)
Blossom & Berry was founded by Gayle Berry in 2002, and has been providing high quality training and classes, promoting relaxation and positive interaction for adults, children and infants since then. They promote a nurturing approach throughout pregnancy, birth and childhood using massage, yoga and positive thinking - relaxed, positive parents help create relaxed, secure and positive children. This Baby Yoga course was created by Gayle, and is based on traditional yoga movements which have been used to help improve health and well-being for centuries. It takes much from the practice of yoga, incorporating aspects of breathing, stretching and relaxation.
As your baby grows, develop a happy, care-free and lively interaction
by offering quality physical stimulation
As a certified Baby Yoga Professional Instructor, my role is to facilitate and help develop a happy, care-free and lively interaction, between infant and parents, by offering quality stimulation. Baby yoga is an ideal medium, as it combines massage, movement and music to provide a complete sensory experience. Each session includes soft stretching, baby holds and swings, inspired by traditional yoga poses, and a little baby massage, to help support the mental, physical and physiological development of babies, and to aid relaxation and bonding. You are also encouraged to practice gentle, yoga-inspired poses with your baby, and use breathing techniques to promote your own relaxation (comfortable clothing is highly recommended!), and help your body to recover after birth. The classes use familiar rhymes and songs to combine movements into simple routines, and offers the opportunity to:
Bond and relax with your baby
Build confidence
Establish instinctive parenting
Explore movement and post-natal yoga stretches
Improve baby's flexibility and co-ordination
Expand baby's sensory awareness
Share time-out from the hectic world
I offer a range of different course types to suit everyone's needs. In addition to my weekly group classes, it is also possible to arrange group sessions with your friends and their babies, all in your own home. So, if you have a baby between the ages of 3 and 12 months, and would like to learn a skill that you can use for life with your growing child, then these are the classes for you.
