Recommended for parents and their new babies 0-8 months of age.

Bring your baby and your baby carrier and head to the dance studio for an hour-long light cardio class that offers a blend of conditioning, dance and parent-child connection principles that will help you focus on your overall health and wellness.
This Babywearing Dance workout is great for all fitness levels. Start where you are and move how you can. No dance experience required.
Remember, after baby is born you should get back to working out slowly and gently. You might feel ready mentally, but your body has gone through something so intense, you need to be patient with it. Your internal organs are only just settling back to where they should be, your hips have actually moved position, your abs don’t meet yet, plus you’re probably not sleeping much, so anything involving too much energy, or balance, makes you feel fuzzy. This workout is just what you need. AND…baby gets to come too!
We also welcome babywearing dads, nannies, grandparents, and other care givers.
Class is taught by a dance instructor and mother!
