The weeks and months after your baby’s birth is a special time, but it can also be sometimes stressful!  Come learn and practice helpful relaxation techniques, including breathing and yoga positions with our certified yoga instructor, Kyle Dempsey.  This class will offer you a peaceful and relaxing 45 minutes to interact and bond with your baby (non-mobile) while you exercise and connect with other new moms!

Kyle Dempsey shares, “The practice of yoga has been an anchor and refuge over this past year as I have transitioned into the role as a mother. I am inspired to share with others navigating early motherhood. I teach a dynamic and therapeutic Vinyasa flow, soundly grounded in breath work, alignment and in the fundamentals of anatomy. I strongly believe that yoga is for everyone (and their babies!) and every body. Recently, my teaching is influenced by my baby girl who reminds me daily of how challenging, ever-changing and beautiful life is.” 

This class is run in a relaxed environment so you can stop to feed and comfort your baby as necessary! (Boppies and bottle warmer available)  Space is limited need to preregister.

Don’t forget your yoga mat and water bottle.
