Baby Massage & restorative yoga
with KIRA
Baby massage for infants from 6 weeks to 10 months. In a safe and nurturing environment this is a beautiful time to introduce healthy skin-to-skin touch with your baby. This is a class which offers you specific techniques to massage your baby appropriately and safely for which you can then take these skills home with you and practice at a time suitable to you both. At the end of the massage session there will be some time for Restorative Yoga - postures to rest and restore you body, mind and soul.
`Take your time, breathe & connect
Listen to your baby´s cues
They will teach you everything you need to know´
