This series is ideal for adults with their babies ages six weeks to pre-crawling. Mom + baby bonding yoga class will help support you through the early months of caring for a new baby in community with other new moms. This bonding class for moms + babies, and moms with other moms focuses on strengthening the spiritual, emotional, and physical bond between postpartum moms and their new baby. All postures for mom will be responsive to the needs of the postpartum body. Class also includes comforting infant massage and various exercises that assist the development of your child’s motor skills.
Rest assured - you will be able to attend to all of your babies (and your own needs) during class. Baby may need to eat, may be fussy, may have a diaper blowout. It's all good - we're here for you and we'll make it all work.
NOTE: All registrants for this series will receive one courtesy class to be used for any yoga class on our regular schedule. We get that life is unpredictable with an infant and that you may need to miss one class in the series. Hopefully this gives moms the flexibility to make it up with a class on our regular schedule.
Join Yoga Haven community Member Nan Mutnick, along with Betsy, Dana, and other Yoga Haven community members for a bi-monthly book club on Thursday evenings. Through a lively conversation we'll have the opportunity to connect and reflect.

Join Elise in our candlelit studio for gentle restorative postures, a guided yoga nidra practice and the tones of the crystal sound bowls.
Yoga nidra aka “yogic sleep,” is a guided meditation practice that is done lying down in savasana, and is designed to bring the practitioner to a place between sleep and wakefulness.
Combined with the healing vibrations of the crystal sound bowls, this powerful, nervous system soothing practice may ease struggles with stress, insomnia, anxiety, chronic pain, burnout, overwhelm, exhaustion and more. You will leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated - one hour of yoga nidra is said to be equivalent to 3-4 hours of deep, restful sleep.
All levels welcome. Dress for comfort and bring additional cozy props like blankets, pillows and eye masks if you like!
Over the course of 2 hours, we will practice some effective techniques that help you manage labor contractions and remain centered, relaxed and focused. Your partner will learn a handful of supportive, hands-on techniques that offer comfort and assistance for you while helping your partner feel more informed and prepared as well. We will practice breath, movements, propping, the mental aspects of labor, and how to employ a more meditative approach.
$70 per couple for the 2 hour class
