🤗 Join us on Sunday, 9/6, from 2-4pm, for two hours of care and bonding for you and your baby. With guidance from our in-house yoga instructor, Margaux, we will move through a gentle yoga flow designed to support mom and baby in the important postpartum recovery period. 🐣
Giving birth is not only a physically transformative experience, but an emotional one. By pairing this yoga practice with Pelvic Floor PT, instructed by our very own Nghi, we hope to instill a sense of empowerment and provide tools that you can carry off your mat to use wherever the waves of motherhood take you. 🍂🌻
🌹💕 Our time together will include:
Accessible postpartum yoga, with modifications provided (all post birth experiences welcome) 🧘♀️🪷
Motor development/emotional development exercises to practice with baby to help sooth some common discomforts (colic, indigestion, etc) 👩🍼
Breath Work exercises to support emotional regulation in the post partum period 😮💨🫶
Pelvic Floor PT instructed by Nghi:
Understanding the pelvic floor and core after birth/ anatomy 🌱
Recovery from vaginal and cesarean deliveries 🕊️
Safe movement, lifting, and returning to exercise 🏋️♀️
Breathing and gentle exercises to promote healing 🌬️🍃
Tips for caring for your baby while protecting your body 🐣💗
When to seek pelvic floor physical therapy 💟
Space/time to move as needed ~ crying and diaper changes are part of life and you should feel comfortable to be in this space, no matter what the day looks like! ⛅
Community discussion/connection ~ a chance to not feel alone in your experience and connect with other moms in the community! 🫂 👯♀️
We encourage you to bring a horseshoe pillow/blanket for baby to lay on, so they have the support they need on the mat! ✨
Meet your instructors! 🌹
In addition to being part of the Soft Space team, Margaux and Nghi bring their clinical experience into their offerings.
👩⚕️🧘♀️ Margaux (she/her) practices as a pediatric nurse outside of Soft Space, caring for children from birth to 21 years and finds fulfillment in bringing education and care to families outside of the hospital setting. Prior to working as a pediatric nurse, Margaux worked in adult trauma medicine, and is sensitive to the delicate work of returning and feeling safe in one’s body.
🩻🪴 Nghi (she/ her/ hers) is an orthopedic and pelvic floor physical therapist. Nghi is passionate about helping women recover, heal, and thrive during the postpartum period. Pregnancy and childbirth bring incredible changes to the body, and while these changes are normal, symptoms such as pelvic pain, urinary leakage, abdominal weakness, pressure, or discomfort should not simply be accepted as "part of being a mom." Nghi’s goal is to empower postpartum women with the knowledge, support, and individualized care they need to restore strength, confidence, and function. Through education, movement, and evidence-based physical therapy, Nghi helps mothers safely return to the activities they love while caring for their growing families.
