Absolutely! I understand that it can be hard to commit to a term of classes, but be assured that you’ll never miss a class. The Postnatal Yoga course includes 10 pre-recorded classes aligned with the weekly in-person class, so you won’t miss out on your practice if you are absent and you can continue to practice at home. Recorded classes are 10-20 minutes in length to support you to make the most of those precious snippets of ‘me time’.

Don’t be! My Postnatal Yoga classes welcome babies in all moods. Some sleep through the class, some crawl around wreaking havoc, some cry. We’re all there to support each other and everyone in the class has been through it too. Plus, I love giving your unsettled little one a cuddle and a rock so you get some time out.
