The age range you'll teach

Need something that brings families back and that you can justify to commissioners?

Worried you do not have any yoga experience?

Concerned you will not feel confident running movement-based sessions safely?

Sound familiar?

Baby yoga gives families a reason to keep coming back once baby massage ends.

It's a welcoming, universal group that builds the parent-baby relationship and opens the door to everything else your hub offers.

Training your own team builds lasting skills in-house and gives you sessions you can run again and again, term after term.

You leave with a clear class structure and ready-to-use plans, so it is easy to justify and deliver consistently.

No yoga background needed:

everything is taught step-by-step, with adaptations for different settings.

Support until you are confident: 1:1 mentoring from Jo as you plan, run, and refine your first classes.

WHY BABY YOGA

When baby massage ends, families often drift away.

The course finishes, babies start rolling and moving, and there's no next class to keep families coming. Teams lose the relationships they've built, and independent practitioners lose bookings. Baby yoga gives families the natural next step.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Built for the professionals

families already trust.

If you've already got the warmth, the patience and the rhythm, baby yoga is the natural next step in your toolkit - and one of the easiest classes in the calendar to fill

Family Hub &

Children's Centre teams

Extend your offer beyond baby massage so families stay engaged from the newborn weeks right through to the crawling stage.

Baby massage &

yoga teachers

Already qualified in one? Baby yoga is the most popular add-on - and it lets you keep the same families with you for months longer.

Independent

practitioners

Doulas, perinatal practitioners and self-employed early years specialists who want a complete, business-ready programme they can run their own way.

Curriculum

Everything you need to lead a baby yoga class with confidence.

Across two days you'll learn the full yoga sequence for babies, the songs and rhymes that hold a room together, and how to keep a class flowing when half the babies are wriggling, one is feeding, and one is asleep in their mother's arms. You'll leave with a programme you can run straight after your training.

Bring: a notebook, a yoga mat, and a willingness to sing in front of strangers until it stops feeling strange.

WHAT PRACTITIONERS SAY

From people who've completed the training

I thoroughly enjoyed the training, the videos were so hepful. I am particularly thankful for the access to all of resources, and more importantly the confidence to actually deliver the classes to real families.

Sue B

Early Years Practitioner

Adding baby yoga to my other baby classes has doubled the time families stayed booked in with me. Best business decision I made all year!

Katie S

Baby Massage Teacher

Booking in-house meant the team trained together - our baby yoga class is proving to be very popular with our families!

About your trainer

I'm Jo. I've trained baby massage, yoga and signing teachers since 2011.

Touch-Learn International grew out of a simple belief: that the first months and years of a baby's life are too important to leave to chance.

For 25 years, Touch-Learn has trained practitioners in family hubs, NHS teams, charities and private practices across the UK, all of them brilliant people who wanted to give parents something genuinely useful.

What you’ll get from us is a course honed over years of real cohorts, not a slick programme written by a marketing team. Our small team of experienced trainers each lead the courses they specialise in.

I teach the Baby Yoga course myself, so you’ll learn with me directly, get your workbook marked by me, and have me on hand for support afterwards. I always get a little bit emotional reading practitioners’ reflections on their first classes.

frequently asked

Questions we hear a lot.

Do I need a yoga qualification first, or any other qualifications?

This is a self-contained teacher training in baby yoga specifically - you don't need to be a yoga teacher already. Many delegates have no yoga background at all and do brilliantly. You will need a Baby Massage Qualification, this doesn't have to be with Touch-Learn, but you will need to have covered Anatomy & Physiology.

What age babies is the class designed for?

Roughly 6 weeks through to pre-crawling. You'll learn how to adapt the sequence as babies progress to rolling, to sitting, to crawling.

Can I do both Baby Yoga and Baby Massage?

Absolutely - and this is what most successful practitioners do. Massage gets you the newborn families; yoga keeps them with you for another few months. Ask about delivering combined classes when you enquire.

What does the assessment involve?

A written workbook, self-reflections from your practice classes, along with a small set of evaluation forms. Most practitioners complete everything within a couple of months of the training.

Can you train our whole team in-house?

Yes - this is the most popular option for councils and family hubs. I'll travel to your venue, tailor examples to your local families, and prepare everyone for qualification in one block. Face-to-face is available for groups of 8 or more; for smaller teams we deliver the same training live online. Get in touch for a quote.

Is funding available?

Many councils use Start for Life or family hub budgets to commission this training. We're also happy to be invoiced and to support you with the paperwork your finance team needs.

How quickly can I start running classes?

Most practitioners begin running their first practice class within a fortnight of the course finishing, and are fully certified within 6–8 weeks. You'll have my support throughout.

Two days, CPD-accredited, from £375, with support until you're qualified.

Ready to put this in your team's calendar?

Tell me a little about your setting and the families you work with, and I'll come back

with dates, format options and a quote within two working days.

No hard sell - just a friendly conversation about whether this is right for you.
