Through Iyengar-influenced teaching, the class challenges the mother, giving her a sense of physical fitness and well-being.
     The babies participate with mothers throughout the class, enjoying age-appropriate stimulation exercises as well as being integrated into the breathing, chanting and asana practice. Mothers who take Baby Om class say it leaves them happier, healthier and with new appreciation for their babies' developing awareness.
Babies age 4 weeks through crawling are welcome, unless age group is specified otherwise.

PRENATAL OM
For women in any stage of pregnancy
Prenatal Om [photo anja hitzenberger] Prenatal Om is a 75-minute yoga class that encourages the mother-to-be to work in a safe and relaxed way through her pregnancy.
     The class uses standing poses to build an awareness of body placement, and restorative poses to balance and nurture depleted energy. The practice of breath awareness turns the focus inward, and seated poses help to open the hips and release the lower back. The mother leaves the class energized, better prepared for labor, and with a deeper connection to her changing body.
