Review: Mother and Baby Yoga with Emily

Updated: Nov 3, 2023

Mother and Baby Yoga with Emilydoula is like a comforting hug! The sessions take place in the fabulous Tabitha Yoga Studio in Belper and Emily creates such a welcoming atmosphere where everyone is made to feel at home. In the busyness of life and motherhood, its a rare chance to focus on your own wellbeing and post-natal recovery.

Some weeks you’ll manage to participate lots, sticking to whatever level of challenge feels right for your body. In others, you’ll do much less yoga if your baby needs to spend all or some of the class feeding, changing, cuddling, playing or roaming! Anything goes and everyone’s fine with it all. Emily leads the session in a responsive way, adapting to what the group seems to need at any given moment. There are songs and baby massage elements so that babies are involved in the class too.

Drinks, delicious flapjack and time to chat at the end make the experience all the more fulfilling. Sessions with Emily (both Yoga and previously Baby Massage) have been a true highlight of our week over the last 6 months!
