Mum and baby yoga in Sydhavn, Copenhagen

Mum and baby yoga at yum is for you if you have started maternity leave and want to move again – with your baby on the mat. We are at Alliancevej 22 in Sydhavnen, by the canal, close to Sluseholmen and Enghave Brygge metro stations. Strollers are welcome.

At yum the course is called Mommy & Baby Yoga. It is five Friday late mornings. We work gently with the pelvic floor, core, shoulders and neck, and there is room for your baby to eat, sleep or join in, depending on the day. There are at most 10 people in the room. Classes are taught in English. You are welcome even if English is not your first language.

A typical Friday is for you, with room for your baby beside you. We strengthen gently and open the chest, shoulders and neck, which often get tired from carrying and feeding. When the babies allow it, there is also time to connect and rest together. Wear comfortable clothes, bring a water bottle, and come ten minutes early if you can, so you have time to settle. Mats and equipment are free.

When you are ready is individual. Most people wait until they feel ready and have talked to their doctor. The postnatal check around 8 weeks after birth is a good time to ask. After a C-section or a complicated birth, you will typically need a little more time. We have written more about this in mum and baby yoga: when can you start after birth?.
