Yes, there's the get-back-in-shape aspect to mom and baby yoga, but yoga with your little one is much more than a fitness class or a few minutes working your abs on a yoga mat. Bond with your baby, spend quality time together, learn to cope with frustrations and interruptions, and celebrate this momentous life change in the best possible way – yoga together.

Pick those stray bits of play-doh from your yoga mat, exhale as you bend over from the waist, remove the littlest one’s fingers from your hair, step back into a lunge and hold – for as long as you can manage while your baby and toddler are using your legs as a jungle gym. No one said it was easy practicing yoga with a young family but the benefits are priceless. Namaste!
