Wednesday Mother & Baby Yoga 10.30 VIRTUAL (6 weeks)

Six weeks from 24th February to 31st March inclusive.

The virtual classes have been going well and using Zoom we can still chat and socialise a bit.  Zoom takes 2 minutes to upload onto your device and is free. 

If you have had a caesarean birth or other intervention during the birth it is important that you go at the right pace for you. You may want to wait until 10 weeks postnatal and definitely have the GP's sign off to exercise. Any new members to the class will need to complete a registration form and I am happy to have a brief chat with you before the start of the course if you have any concerns about your health (eg healing from tears, backache, postnatal depression or anything else).

**DISCLAIMER - since I will not be in a room with you, I cannot watch what you are doing in the same way. However, the movement and poses I am teaching are safe and you are the person that knows your body best. Please adjust what we are doing to be comfortable according to what you feel as we do the yoga.**

Please have something on the floor (a blanket is fine if you don't have a yoga mat) and a couple of cushions. Also have a blanket or playmat to lie your baby on.  A baby bouncer can be useful too.

Once you have signed up, you will receive a confirmation email with a link for Zoom. You will need to install the App Zoom Meetings on your device ahead of time (it's free and takes a couple of minutes to do). Please aim to join 10 minutes before so we can sort out any tech issues. Do not be put off by the technology - we haven't had any issues so far. You're welcome to join earlier if you fancy a chat.

I have reduced the cost of classes since I am not paying for a venue. **If your household income has been affected significantly by the crisis and the reduced cost is prohibitive please do not hesitate to get in touch to sort something out. I want to play my small part in preventing new mums feeling isolated or lonely.** (I have also set up a FB group called 'Community of Pearls' that you are welcome to join - send me a friend request (to Tessa Sanderson) and a message to say you want to join.)

I know that life with a baby is unpredictable so I will be recording the class so you can always catch up later via a link.

Keep well
