BABY'S FIRST MASSAGE with MiMi Mears, RYT, LMT $30, $5 discount with advance registration Saturday, January 14, 12:15-1:15p ENROLL NOW  The birth of your child is a magical and exciting moment for everybody in the family. However, the first days and weeks of the life of your newborn can be a very challenging time, especially for first-time moms. Exhausted, overwhelmed, worried for their babies, some moms feel powerless and frustrated. The Baby’s First Massage workshop teaches you a simple way to create a relaxing, rewarding, nourishing and bonding time for the whole family. You'll learn:
This workshop is designed for pregnant women in their last trimester and new moms and infants up to 2 months old. Please email MiMi to inquire about private classes for babies who were born preterm or who have special needs. Bring baby bag, diapers, wipes, a firm pillow and blanket. Graduates of this class are highly encouraged to attend Infant Massage series to build on the skills learned in this workshop. INFANT MASSAGE SERIES with MiMi Mears, RYT, LMT $135, $10 discount if registered in advance 5 Saturdays, 12:15-1:15p, next date tba Infant Massage is an age-old tradition that has been passed down from mother to daughter since the beginning of time, with many documented benefits. This 5 week infant massage series builds on the skills learned in Baby's 1st Massage workshop. This gives both the parents and baby time to learn and become comfortable with the massage. Each week, parents learn strokes for a new part of the body while reviewing strokes from previous classes. So new strokes are learned and previous information is reinforced. We teach a little at a time to ensure that you are confident with every aspect. The strokes and styles of baby massage are easier to grasp when demonstrated by our experienced instructor. Pressure, rate, rhythm, the length of the massage, respect, bonding, why baby cries, baby's body language, communication through touch, positioning of the baby, relaxation, benefits, and parent empowerment are some of the skills and topics that may be discussed. What's a class like?
"MOMMY & ME" ZUMBA™ Zumba™ with Baby with Dikla Biton Drop-in/Community class rate weekly class on Thursdays, 10:45-11:30a Intended for moms and their infants, newborn to pre-walkers (around 9 months) Moms often scratch themselves off of their priority list when a new baby arrives. It doesn’t have to be that way. Now, you can enjoy valuable “you-time” while your baby is safe, in your full view and hanging out with other babies. Dance a 30-45 minute Zumba cardio workout while being able to tend to your baby immediately when needed. Music is played at a softer volume than a regular Zumba classes, and your baby never leaves your sight. Baby can sit in his or her car seat or play on on the blanket in front of class with toys and other babies, or you can wear your baby while dancing. Also included is interactive strength work with baby. Babies love this social time and watching their mom dance, and they eventually pick up on the music and start dancing with us!

Even though they have more comfort and material possessions than our grandparents could ever dream of when they were little, 21st century children also have more stress than ever before. The hurried pace of our modern life and the academic and social pressures kids are exposed to are only compounded by the competitive nature of many sports and afterschool activities. Yoga for Kids offers a healthy way to release this stress and develop awareness, strength, flexibility, acceptance and calm in a fun, non-competitive environment.
