Classes
Mini & Me baby yoga
Yoga for you and your baby, from around three months to eighteen months. Gentle movement, songs and touch, at whatever pace your baby sets. Nothing to be good at. Crying is fine, feeding is fine, and a class that turns into a nap halfway through is still a good class.

Which ages
From around three months, once your baby holds their own head up, to eighteen months. If your child is already crawling or walking they are still welcome; the class moves along with them.
What a class looks like
Forty five minutes. We start seated, with songs and gentle movements for your baby. Then a stretch for you, with your baby on or beside the mat. We finish lying still together under a blanket.
Your baby sets the pace. If there is feeding or changing to do, you just do it. Nobody minds.
How the classes run
Baby yoga runs in blocks, on request. Send a message through contact and I will let you know when the next block starts.
Baby yoga or baby massage
Two different things that work well together. Baby yoga is a block of weekly classes you come to together. Baby massage is a short course where you learn to massage your baby at home yourself. Many parents do the massage course first and come to the yoga afterwards.
What to bring
Comfortable clothes, a nappy or two, and whatever your baby needs. Mats, blankets and cushions are there.
What it does for you
- Supports your baby's motor development and digestion
- Puts you among other parents at the same stage
- Eases your own body back into movement after birth
- Helps you read your baby's signals
Frequently asked questions
Do I need yoga experience?
No. Some of the people in class have never been on a mat. Classes are built so you can join without knowing anything, and there is always an easier option.
From what age can my baby join?
From around three months, once your baby holds their own head up. Up to eighteen months is welcome.
What if my baby cries or needs feeding?
Then you feed or comfort them. The class carries on and nobody minds. That is what this class is built around.
Are classes taught in English?
If someone in the room does not speak Dutch, the class is taught in English. Mention it when you book.
