Benefits of Mom & Baby Yoga Online

A Mom & Baby Yoga class can be chaotic. It's easy to be distracted by another mom or baby. When practicing online, you can always mute yourself and take a pause whenever you need to. Plus, you'll be practicing from the comfort of your home. No need to plan an outing!

We will set time at the beginning of the class to chat and get to know each other. Live meet ups and play dates between moms living in the same area are always possible!


This class is FOR YOU to practice Yoga with your Baby

I'd like to emphasize that this class is more for you than for your baby. It is a safe space for you to take a break, move, have fun, and also tend to your baby and bond with her. If your baby happens to be napping at the time of class, no worries, you can still practice with us!


What do I need for Mom & Baby Yoga?

Set your space:

Make sure you have an extra blanket for your baby to lay on or sit on while you practice yoga on your mat. Cushions and any extra props are also a great idea, especially if your baby is learning how to sit and is still a bit wabbly. If your baby is crawling, get some special toys out so that he can stay entertained during the poses where she isn't involved and try practicing in a safe space where it is not a problem if she crawls away.

Have a basket with diaper changing stuff by your side, as well as snacks, water, bottles, and any nursing props your might need. This way you can take a pause to tend to your baby without leaving your mat.

Wear comfortable clothing - bras are always optional!

Also, make sure you sign in 5 to 10 minutes before we begin to make sure all the tech works.

When can you start practicing postnatal yoga?

C-section mommas: The recommendation is normally 6 weeks post-partum. However, 10 to 12 weeks after birth gives you more time to heal. Make sure that your doctor has cleared you before you start any exercise, and most importantly, that YOU feel ready.

Vaginal birth mommas: 6-weeks post-partum, provided your doctor has cleared you is the usual time fresh moms can start exercising again. Remember, every body is different. Listen to yours before starting any type of exercise.


What if you have diastasis recti?

Diastasis recti is the separation of the rectus abdominus muscles (your abs, the six pack muscles) along the mid-line of your belly. All women have this separation during pregnancy, and it normally goes back to normal after birth. However, if your separation is wider than 2cm, it is especially important that you are careful with the type of exercises you practice as the risk of getting an abdominal hernia increases greatly.

If you believe your diastasis recti is over 2cm, please let me know in advance so that I can support you during class with appropriate variations. We can work together to help you heal.


Do you need previous yoga experience? 

Not at all, classes are accessible to all mommas, regardless of your previous experience. Each session is designed to strengthen, relax you and get you in tune with your body without over-straining.



My class-passes can be used for all of the classes that I offer. Practice with me from pregnancy and onwards :)




About Melissa

I'm a certified Hatha, Vinyasa and Holistic Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Instructor AND Mom to a lovely boy, based in Munich, Germany.
I first found Yoga in 2011 while visiting a class at my local fitness studio. It didn't take long before I fell in love with the practice. Firstly, because of the amazing physical effects it produced, but later because of the calmness and freedom I felt after every session. So I kept coming back to the practice.

In 2018 I became a certified Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga instructor (200hrs) and in 2019, I completed the 100-hour Prenatal Yoga Teacher Certification by the Womben Wellness Institute in the amazing Anand Prakash Yoga Ashram in Rishikesh, India. In 2021-22, during my maternity leave, I continued my education and became certified in Postnatal Yoga (25 hrs) as well as Pelvic Floor Anatomy & Physiology for Women's Health with Baby Bliss Yoga, Australia.

My favorite part about teaching the different forms of Yoga I have learned is being able to guide students into listening to their own bodies, their intuition, and finding those wonderful Zen moments in between and during postures. I am also passionate about the amazing process of pregnancy, birth, and the unfolding process of becoming a mother. Being a new mom myself, I consider the concept of community and women's gathering and support systems extremely important as an empowerment tool. Not just for pregnant women, but for all women, regardless of their stage in life.
With the classes I've designed, my mission is to empower you, help you relax and guide you into learning more about yourself and about a holistic yoga practice.
