The Diploma in Baby Yoga is the full teaching qualification recognised for purposes of insurance and professional accreditation for health professionals and to parents who are motivated to teach other parents. Following on from the successful course in April this is an update to assess skills already developed and learn more advanced techniques.

In this 3 day course the practices taught are an updated version of the pioneering set developed by Francoise Freedman including "relaxed holds", swings, dips and lifts", the 3 "hip sequences", moves for strength and balance, moves for tummy time". Songs and movements together as developed by Sally Lomas are also taught on this course.

The course covers movements that facilitate the transistions to sitting, crawling, standing and walking. The teaching of joint relaxation between parent and baby is given special importance as a way to help parents release tension and to allow babies to experience relaxed parents.

Sally is also an Active birth and Montessori teacher and has been running Birthlight classes in Cambridge for many years.

These days mums-to-be do not always have  family near  to help with  newly expected arrivals.  This can lead to feelings of  isolation at a time when they  really do want to share their experiences and often need to feel more confident with this exquisite journey in life.

This is a three day training for those who feel drawn to help mums-to-be in this way.
