Parent & Baby Yoga Therapy Group
A free, gender-inclusive group for parents of children up to 30 months.
The transition into parenthood can bring meaningful moments of connection alongside exhaustion, overwhelm, changing relationships, and questions about who you are becoming. Sometimes, what parents need most is a place to pause, feel supported, and connect with others who understand.
Rooted in Connection combines gentle yoga with talk group therapy to create space for grounding, reflection, and connection during the early years of parenthood. This group is designed to be attended by both parents and their babies – come as you are!

This group is intended for parents of children up to 30 months, regardless of gender identity or family structure.
We hope for this group to support you where you are at in your postpartum journey. Each 90-minute session will include grounding, discussion and support around a theme, and a yoga practice tailored to the group. Discussion topics will be themed around the following areas:
- Overwhelm, stress, and anger
- Guilt and pressure
- Changes in identity and relationships
- Making space for your own needs alongside caring for your child
Kayleen and Jami will prompt group discussion, therapeutic reflection, and provide accessible practices to take home. Participants will be invited to explore their experiences, learn from one another, and develop ways to support their well-being.
This is a closed group, meaning the same participants attend each week. Our hope is to create a welcoming and supportive space where connection can grow over time. Children up to 30 months are welcome to attend with their parent.
