2010 - 2011 Class Descriptions
Note: Click on a course title to expand the details.
A program developed for mothers and their 3- to 9-month-old baby. The workout is perfect for infants as early as 3 months old who are able to hold their head up on their own all the way through 9 months old, right before crawling. It allows busy new moms the opportunity to regain their strength and muscle tone after pregnancy without having to find a babysitter or wait for your baby's nap time. Instead, Baby & Me incorporates your baby in all your exercise movements so that you are not only getting your workout time, but also spending quality time with your new baby. Not only are the yoga poses for mom and classical dance movements, but the Baby & Me Workout includes yoga exercises for your baby as well, which aid in digestion, sleep, comfort, and relaxation.
