Description

Birthlight Baby Yoga Diploma Overview

Baby Yoga refers to a diversified set of gentle interactive practices between a baby and a caring adult for enhancing the wellbeing and development of the baby from birth to the third year. 

The birthlight Baby Yoga course was developed by the Founder and Director of birthlight, Francoise Barbira Freedman, who was inspired by her experience of living with forest people in the Amazon region of Peru, her research background in medical anthropology, and most of all, as a mother of 4. 

The Baby Yoga Diploma course trains teachers to facilitate the mutual enjoyment of parents and babies and creative play between them, with all the health benefits that are derived from these harmonising practices.

Course Structure

The course consists of three modules: 

First Module, Part 1: 3 Days.  For more Info on Part 1, please visit: http://www.birthlight.com/public/com/content.aspx?id=60053231-0ddd-4db9-ad7d-895d8d6bcd4d
