Child & Family Yoga with Alexis Azzam
I am a certified Child & Family Yoga Teacher offering group and private yoga classes for families with children of all ages, babies to Grandparents! My classes weave story, song, and movement to provide families with fun and relaxing connection. Children and caregivers will learn tools for improving listening, flexibility, sensory integration, and co-regulation. I account for all bodies and abilities, from postpartum moms to bendy kiddos to less-than-flexible folk. No previous Yoga experience required!
I am also a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in Oakland and Berkeley, providing psychotherapy to tweens/teens, parents, and families.
I just finished a 6-week baby yoga and massage class with Alexis and it was wonderful! We started when my baby was about 6 weeks old and she really loved it. At first the massage portion of the class was her favorite, and then she really got into the yoga. She always slept so well on the days we went to class. For me it was such a treat to have a little time to stretch and take care of my body and get to hang out with other new mamas. Alexis is an incredibly warm and caring person, so thoughtful and intuitive and a really fun teacher as well. The babies LOVED her. She was always willing to comfort a fussy baby or two so the mamas could get a chance to do some yoga. I will never forget the image of her bouncing on a yoga ball with two squirmy babies while also directing us into poses. Her class is just an awesome experience and I recommend it to all new parents and caregivers. I continue to do the baby yoga with my little one based on what Alexis taught us and it's a really sweet bonding experience that we both love.
