Nurturing the Journey of Motherhood with Postpartum Yoga
Welcome to a postpartum sanctuary crafted exclusively for the beautiful souls navigating the profound adventure of new motherhood! Our New Moms (and Babes) Yoga class is a haven designed for those who have birthed within the last year—honoring the crucible of the first, transformative 365 days.
🤱 Come as You Are: In this sacred space, authenticity reigns supreme. Babies will be babies, moms will be moms. Whether it’s a coo, a cry, a feeding, or a diaper change, every nuance of motherhood is not only accepted but embraced. Here, you are among kindred spirits who “get it.”
🌈 Holistic Well-being: Embark on a journey that transcends the physical—our yoga class weaves together the strands of core rehab training, pelvic floor health, and comprehensive biopsychosocial care. Nurture your body, mind, and soul as you reclaim and fortify your strength.
🧘 Gentle Yoga & Core Rehab: Indulge in gentle yoga poses, meticulously curated to rejuvenate your postpartum body. Engage in core rehab exercises designed to aid your recovery, rebuilding your strength from the inside out for a foundation of wellness.
🌬️ Mindfulness & Relaxation: Immerse yourself in mindfulness and relaxation techniques that soothe the mind and spirit. Through guided meditation and breathing exercises, find moments of calm amidst the beautiful chaos of motherhood on and off your mat.
🤝 Community & Connection: Forge bonds with fellow moms who share in the joys and challenges of the postpartum journey. This is more than a class; it’s a supportive community where experiences are shared, and friendships blossom.
🌍 Understanding the Journey: Delve into educational segments that unravel the intricate tapestry of postpartum changes. Learn about common postpartum symptoms and self-care to ease them that empowers you with knowledge for the beautiful road ahead. We even have guest speakers on occasion.
💖 Celebrate Your Strength: This class is a celebration of you—your resilience, your journey, and the strength that emanates from the core of motherhood. Embrace self-compassion and revel in the power of your own narrative.
🌐 Ongoing Support: Extend the connections beyond the class. Discover resources for support groups, online communities, and local services, fostering a network that uplifts and sustains you through every step.
It really does take a village!
Join us in this nurturing space, where yoga isn’t just about poses—it’s a celebration of the profound, transformative journey of becoming a mother. Together, let’s honor the beauty of motherhood and create memories that transcend the mat.
“I highly recommend this class for any momma. The environment is one filled with kindness, support, understanding and grace for whatever arises. It gave me confidence and patience with myself and my baby, as well as incredibly special moments to bond together, and alongside other mommas in their journeys.” – Lauren
“Anne’s class was so gentle, poetic and amazing thank you.” – Allison
“Anne is an incredibly knowledgeable yoga teacher, especially for prenatal and postpartum mothers looking to maintain their practice. She not only provides deep emotional support, but rich physical support as well – clearly communicating the anatomical aspects of the pre- and post-birth body and how specific postures and practices can provide immediate and lasting benefits. As a new mama myself, I can say with full certainty my pregnancy experience was immensely more enjoyable and supported because of Anne. I can’t wait to keep working with her and would recommend her services to anyone – especially expecting and new mamas!” -Josie
How old should my baby be? For my New Mom Yoga class, babies are welcome from birth up to approximately one year old.
When are they too young or too old?
Too Young: this is a matter of the mother. When she feels she is ready to venture out of the home after having her baby, she is welcome in class. Often my class is the first solo outing mama does with her baby. It is a safe space for all things baby, like a “new mom group” but with yoga. No “one size fits all”, I ALWAYS offer mamas guidance on what is appropriate for their body based on how many weeks they are postpartum.
Too Old: When Baby becomes Highly Mobile. Generally between 9 – 13 months, babies become interested in their world. When they are able to maneuver themselves quickly away from Mom, and prefer to explore the room, the stress of constantly corralling them outweighs the benefits of class. On other words, Mom, it’s your decision, and you’ll know when it’s time =)
What if my baby cries, wants to feed, or be held? CONGRATULATIONS! You have a baby! My only concern would be if Baby doesn’t do those things. All things baby and new mom are welcome. Caring for yourself and baby IS yoga. Returning to movement, strength, stretch, and mindfulness IS yoga. Doing all those things at once… IS YOGA.
Come as you are and be held in your community of moms.
What should I bring? Anything baby or yourself will need for the duration of class. Your yoga mat is your space where everything may occur: feed baby, change baby, hold baby, etc. You are also welcome to leave the room if Baby (or you) need to step away.
Items I recommend: Blanket for baby to lay upon, diaper bag, feeding supplies, toys, your yoga mat (I do have a few to lend if you forget), and whatever else you may need except the kitchen sink (because we have one).
