Parent & Baby Yoga
Baby Yoga Classes in Edinburgh that are as much for you as they are for baby. Spend a well-deserved hour using safe post-natal yoga to move your body in a way that feels good, look after yourself physically and emotionally, and spend time doing something fun with your baby.
These classes are open to all parents and carers with babies who are not yet crawling. Please wait until you are at 6-10 weeks post-birth and have been advised that you may return to exercise when you feel ready.
You can find out more in the FAQs and if you have any further questions before booking please just let me know.
Parent and Baby Yoga Timetable
Tuesdays 10-11am & 11:20am-12:20pm
St Anne's Church, 1 Kaimes Road, Edinburgh, EH12 6JR
We start with baby yoga moves and songs/rhymes (don’t worry, I won’t force you to sing) to encourage gross motor skills and brain development, as well as being great fun for you both. You’ll learn breathing techniques to calm your mind, build core strength and bring balance to your pelvic floor muscles. Post-natal yoga postures will focus on overall strength, balance, flexibility and mobility. To finish up, we will spend a few minutes of quiet time and relaxation with the babies.
Regain strength with a focus on pelvic floor and core muscles

“I’ve loved going to Louise's classes since my son was just a few weeks old. Louise is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She creates such a lovely mum-led space. She’s happy to hold babies if she has spare arms so you can enjoy some calm.
The classes are great for easing yourself back into your body post-baby. I’d definitely recommend going to her class and am going to miss seeing her smiley face each week. It’s been something I’ve looked forward to each week.”
