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 yoga for younger and older ages (up to 12mths), and I teach postnatal yoga classes (mum focused) and baby massage courses.
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.

postnatal yoga & movement, mondays 10am
A postnatal class for YOU, babies are very welcome to chill on the mat with you/play in the centre with the calming toys. This is a postnatal course which will support your recovery after birth. We will explore all things pelvic floor, breath work, using props, core recovery, and re-building confidence in your body.
With around 30-40mins of movement practise, we'll then enjoy some social time with a biscuit and drink.
Held at the gorgeous Berry Farm, South Cerney near Cirencester/Swindon (Silver st, GL7 5TR).

Classes can be a lovely follow on from baby massage, or you're welcome to join anytime brand new. This class is for baby AND you. A class for mums and babies to enjoy together, where baby is on the mat with you and incorporated into what we do.

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.
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.
