Birthlight Mama & Baby Yoga - in English
Birthlight Mama & Baby Yoga is a unique way of practicing yoga together. It is fun for babies and helps new moms build up strength from the inside out. We are using the breath, gentle poses and movements to strengthen pelvic floor and core, find alignment and balance in a new phase of life.
We introduce playful exercises for the babies, that are designed to support baby’s natural cognitive, physical and emotional development. Lightly manipulating baby’s limbs will maintain suppleness, ease digestive problems, and reinforce the loving bond between parent and child.
And most importantly: we want our classes to be positive experiences for all participants. Parents and babies are welcome as they are and so are their needs. There will be time to connect, play and share experience. Laughing, crying, feeding and sleeping are welcome happen when they do!
This course is for all mothers and their babies from 2 months until crawling age.
ABOUT YOUR TEACHER
Barbara was introduced to yoga at the age of 6, joining her
mother on the mat. As an adult, she re-discovered yoga and decided to become a
teacher herself. In 2008 she completed a 2-year teacher training focussing on
Hatha Yoga (Sivananda tradition) followed by specialised trainings in birthlight
baby yoga, toddler yoga, pre- and postnatal yoga. Since then she has been
teaching classes and workshops in Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Sri Lanka, Poland
and Cyprus.
Since 2013, Barbara has organised many birthlight training
courses in Germany and is passionate about spreading the valuable tools of adapted
yoga practices for pregnancy, motherhood and babyhood.
