"When I started working with Anna, I was as stiff as a plank and very stubborn with my approach towards yoga and general mobility training. Anna helped mestay disciplined and practice yoga on a daily basis through her endless information, great energy, and dedication towards each and every session. I have noticed a massive improvement specifically in my thoracic and hip mobility from our regular sessions, and it has helped my overall fitness levels."

When to practice

It’s important to rest initially, take the time to recover and bond with your baby. Once you are cleared by your doctor to attend classes (6 weeks or 8 weeks for C-birth) you should be ready to join classes, but it is important to listen to what your body is ready to do.  Suitable for babies from six weeks to crawling.
