FAMILIES & PARENT CLASSES
FAMILY YOGA - A yoga class for the entire family! Join us for this playful, imaginative class appropriate for any age, from babies to school-aged kiddos, parents, grandparents, etc. - all are welcome! Classes will adapt to the ages, energy, and needs of the group.
*Children under 10 years old and students needing additional support must attend with a parent, guardian, or care provider.
BABY & ME YOGA (ALL PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS WELCOME!) - This class is similar to our Postpartum Yoga class but with less focus on postpartum recovery and fully inclusive to non-birthing parents and caregivers. We will work on releasing tension in those areas most affected by caring for a baby while interacting with Baby in playful and engaging ways. All levels, all gender identities, and all caregivers with their pre- and early mobile babies welcome!
CAREGIVER + BIRTHWORKER RESTORATIVE YOGA - This class combines elements of slow flow and restorative yoga with mindfulness, breath work, and self compassion practices to support the body, mind, and spirit. Leave feeling relaxed, restored, and refreshed! Class will focus on the impacts of caregiving, both on the body and mind. This adult-only class is open to all caregivers and birth workers; no one is turned away for an inability to pay.
MOVERS + MULTITASKERS YOGA - Mobile babies and kids welcome!
Have you tried to practice yoga at home only to become your toddler’s personal jungle gym? Has your child outgrown the “baby and me” yoga classes? Are you having trouble finding the time or motivation to practice? If any of this sounds familiar, this class is for you! You’ll be guided through a juicy, all levels Vinyasa class while your kiddo(s) play and let loose with other little ones.
It’s a little Zen and a little “Lord of the Flies.” You may not leave class blissed out, but you and your Little One will benefit from much-needed socialization (and a short reprieve for you!). Kiddos are welcome to flow with their caregiver, play, or do a little of both! Final relaxation includes a brief storytime for the kiddos while parents get a moment of (semi) peace.
TINY TUTUS (2-5 YEARS OLD) - This 5-week series is where the love for dance begins! Our Tiny Tutu's class is for ages 2-5, and focuses on pre ballet and fun! This 30 minute class runs once a week, and introduces our students to proper stretching, the beginning ballet positions and techniques, gross motor skills across the floor, free dance, and beginner dancing joy!
These ballet babies can wear whatever they feel comfortable moving their bodies in whether that be a leotard, tights and ballet slippers or sweatpants and bare feet.
*Children must be potty-trained or parents must stay on site behind our two way mirror in case of diapering needs.
**$10 discount for additional siblings when registering for entire series.
