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.
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?
The 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?
Please
be diligent about having only healthy kiddos in class. Because our teachers are often doulas, and constantly around very young
children, we 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.)
What kind of yoga is it?
Our teachers teach
teach a blend of Kundalini, Hatha, and Astanga flow. If that doesn't mean anything to you, don't worry. Just come and join
us, and you'll see!
