What's a Twiggler?

Well it's any baby or toddler that enjoys ACTION SONGS clapping, shaking MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

A curious little one who can't wait to see WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!

An Explorer who like to get their HANDS ON a range of SENSORY PROPS to DISCOVER and PLAY

But then they enjoy a little bit of a STORY and snuggle and a bit of REFLEXOLOGY at the end to finish off a busy time

COME AND JOIN OUR TEDDY BEARS PICNIC THIS WEEK AND A SPECIAL MYSTERY THEME NEXT WEEK

Some are Tinies and some are Wrigglers = Twigglers!

SUITABLE FROM ABOUT 3 -18 MONTHS

BABY CLASSES ARE BACK THIS WEEK.....

Over the last few weeks, I've been using my in-depth training and years of experience to work with a charity providing infant massage and yoga for some very wonderful families whose little ones live with sight loss. It's been such a privilege to work with them.

Now, I've shared the Family Way magic with them. It's back to classes in Long Eaton 🥳

I'm running a special offer to take us up to summer in WRIGGLERS SENSORY PLAY AND YOGA where you can book 4 classes for £30 or 3 classes for £24 or pay per class £8.50

This is for classes in JULY, every Friday at 1.15 St John's Church Long Eaton.

BIRTHING FLOW

Come and join the friendliest bunch of mums-to-be as we end the week with a relaxing stretch, birthy chat, few laughs, and loads of tips to enjoy your pregnancy and prepare for birth. Taught by a fully qualified antenatal teacher since 2016.

Book every class in July for £38 (four weeks) or £30 for 3 classes or £11 pay per class

Fridays from 6pm at St John's Church Long Eaton

BIRTHING FLOW

THIS FRIDAY we are easing into the weekend with a full flow.

Each movement is designed to help you unwind during pregnancy, gently, and with adaptations to suit all.

Each movement is based on the biomechanics of birth to prepare your body for labour.

Flow into a deep relaxation to leave the week behind, create headspace to tune into your body, connect with your baby, and prepare your mind for birth.

Friendly, welcoming, with birthy chats led by a fully qualified antenatal teacher since 2016, meet other mums to be, and start to build your village.

Fridays from 6 pm Long Eaton, at a fully accessible, ground floor space with free parking.

HOLIDAYS/SHIFT WORKER? No problem with our FLEXIBLE five class pass £45

Or two classes for £22
