Itsy Bitsy Yoga® is a class for children, and their parents or caregivers. Pre-crawlers will be in the
babies class, and children up to 24 months will be in the tots class. No previous yoga experience
is required, as this is not a yoga class for adults. Our focus is on the babies, helping them and
their caregivers to realize a fun bonding experience..
Our class provides a relaxed atmosphere in which you and your child may participate as much or
as little as you like. Parents are encouraged to listen to their child’s cues. If they are hungry, fussy,
or not interested in our current pose, please feel free to tend to their needs. Children will usually
absorb the positive energy in the class without needing to participate in every pose.
Itsy Bitsy Yoga® helps you to introduce your baby (or toddler) to yoga in the first years of life.
Healthy habits are formed early, so give your baby all the tools they need to grow into a healthy,
happy child, teen and adult. This program includes baby (or toddler) appropriate variations on
many of your favorite yoga poses. Parents rave about Itsy Bitsy Yoga® and these benefits:
- Promotes parent and baby relaxation and bonding
- Helps your baby sleep longer and better
- Improves your baby’s digestion
- Calms a fussy or crying baby utilizing the Itsy Bitsy Yoga Magic Poses™
- Provides you with specific, healthy activities you can practice with your child
Your class will be taught by a certified Itsy Bitsy Yoga facilitator. Helen Garabedian, an Infant
Developmental Movement Educator and Registered Yoga Teacher, created this program which
includes more than 75 yoga poses and techniques for babies from 3 weeks to 24 months old. All
of the poses and songs in our class can be found in Helen’s book: Itsy Bitsy Yoga: Poses to help
your baby sleep better, digest easier, and grow stronger.

Classes
In keeping with the yoga practice of non-judgment, we ask that only one parent or caregiver attend
each session with your child. It could be uncomfortable for others in the class to feel as if they are
being observed, and distracting to your child to have more than one parent to give their attention
and love.
