Baby & postnatal classes
Congratulations on the birth of your little one! I'd love you to join my welcoming and calm baby classes soon. I teach baby massage courses, and mum & baby yoga classes in South Cerney (near Cirencester/Swindon).
I do things a little differently - as a mum of 3, I know how overwhelming it can be to attend a new group and space, and how you're craving a space where you can just be comfortable with your baby, and enjoy quality time together. My classes are a nurturing and low stimulation, I use a lot of pure sounds and instruments, minimal props so there's a focus on you and baby, and relaxing music. There's lots of time to connect with others, to share how you're feeling and support each other through the highs and lows of new parenthood.
Term dates:
Classes are small and friendly, perfect for you to enjoy meeting new mums in a relaxed and informal atmosphere; please don't worry if your baby is crying or needing to feed or needs changing, this is a space to take care of yourself and your baby.
Sept/Oct term: 6 week course commencing 8th Sept
Nov/Dec term: 6 week course commencing 3rd Nov
Jan/Feb term: 5 week course commencing 12th Jan
Mum & Baby Yoga, Tuesdays at 12.30PM
A postnatal class for baby AND you. We start with fun and engaging movements for baby to support their development, and then a chance to stretch and strengthen for you too. Having practised yoga with all three of my babies, and teaching classes for nearly 10 years, I love being able to offer a space where you get to bond with your baby and enjoy the benefits of yoga together. Suitable from 12 weeks to pre-crawling.
Held at the gorgeous Berry Farm, South Cerney near Cirencester/Swindon (Silver St, GL7 5TR).
Baby massage, Tuesdays at 11am
Learn baby massage strokes to support your babies tummy, sleep and bonding, as well as an introduction to gentle baby yoga stretches to support their development. We finish with a hot drink and biscuit, and some chat time to help you connect with other parents. Suitable for babies 6 weeks to mobile. Held at the gorgeous Berry Farm, South Cerney near Cirencester/Swindon (Silver st, GL7 5TR).
Dads/grandparents are very welcome to attend with you, please pop me a message to check room capacity.
Looking to practise at home?
I offer on-demand, online postnatal courses focussed solely on mum and your postpartum recovery, helping you feel more confident in getting back to movement. Baby can be on the mat with you or snoozing nearby while you stretch and strengthen. Covering topics like diastasis recti, core progressions, pelvic floor function and your breath, as well as helping to release your back and all those tight spots you might experience postpartum.
I also offer a baby massage and yoga course, which means you can enjoy bonding with your baby and learning new techniques to support them, from the comfort of your own home.
A gift from my sister - a real gift of time out, focusing on me and my baby. Relaxing music, calming scents and a very welcoming atmosphere with a gentle reintroduction to exercise and gradually graded intensity over subsequent months. I highly recommend these classes and Sinead as a teacher.
