Here are some frequently asked questions: How old do the kids have to be for parent and me yoga? Kids range from 6 weeks to 7 years old in the parent and me yoga. In the classes designated "infant classes" kids must not be walking yet, but crawling is fine. Infants are welcome in any of the classes, but the thursday 10am class is just for infants (pre-walkers). All other classes are all ages. Should I bring my own yoga mat? The studio is fully equipped with straps, blocks, pillows, blankets, and mats. If you prefer to bring your own mat, feel free. What do the kids do during the yoga classes? In Parent and Me classes, the kids activities vary depending on age and temperment. There is a play area for the kids, and older kids tend to play, draw on the magnadoodle, stack blocks, or do yoga if they feel so inclined. Younger children and infants can sleep, nurse, hang out in a bouncer, or sit with me on the ball if they are fussy. The yoga is mainly focused on the moms and dads. In Kids yoga with Heidi Jo (Tuesdays at 3:45) the kids stay and the parents do not. Because of this, most of the children are at least 4 or a very focused three year old. What if I've never done yoga before? You will be taken care of if you are a beginner. The classes are designed for all levels. I give variations of poses to take care of all the levels of the class. Is Prenatal Yoga safe for all trimesters? My classes are challenging, but absolutely safe for all stages of pregnancy. Use your own judgement, and please follow your doctor's reccomendations for anything high risk. If you have specific questions, please ask me! How do you feel about kids and germs? I am diligent about having only healthy kiddos in class. Because I am a doula, and constantly around very young children, i ask that parents do not bring sick children unless they know that they are no longer contagious. Symptoms that would indicate NOT coming to class include (fever, sick tummies, rash that might be contagious, eye infection, mucous that is yellow or green, etc.) If you are unsure, you may call me first. What kind of yoga is it? I teach a blend of Kundalini, Hatha, and Astanga flow. If that doesn't mean anything to you, don't worry. Just come and join me, and you'll see! |
