Description:

Raise the barre! Babywearing Ballet is a postnatal class designed to help you regain strength and posture while sharing special time with your baby. Moving to beautiful music, you’ll enjoy a full ballet workout as your little one benefits from being close to you.
Classes follow a traditional ballet structure—barre work, centre exercises —with special attention to muscle toning and alignment after pregnancy.

Open to all levels, whether you’re a former dancer or brand new to ballet. Babies should be at least 6–8 weeks old and able to support their head and neck.

Wear comfortable clothing (leggings or tights). You may dance barefoot, in non-slip socks, or ballet slippers. Please bring your own baby carrier (avoid sling-style carriers so your arms can move freely).

Our classes are a great way to get out of the house, move your body and build your mama community, which is easily done in the 30 min after class, when mamas can cool down, feed their babies and get to know each other.

Please bring a structured carrier or non-stretchy wrap to the class. Your baby will enjoy snuggling with you while you wear them in your baby carrier. You’ll “love” the extra resistance that wearing your baby provides!

** Your pass gives you access to Fitmama Strong Online offerings (live, online classes & on-demand workouts) as an extra value to our Babywearing Fitness class participants who wish to use them. Please get in touch at info@fitmamastrongottawa.com to have your pass activated.
