Prenatal & Postpartum Yoga Classes
Albuquerque prenatal yoga classes with BM-TF will encourage you to move your body, exercise, and breath in a way that feels good and that is safe and productive throughout all trimesters of your pregnancy. Set intentions and prepare your body and mind for labor and birth. Relieve common pregnancy discomforts. Meet and practice with other pregnant people.
Each class includes foundational principles of form, various types of movement, breath work, and labor preparation. It is encouraged to attend class at least twice/week to get the most out of it and for the practice to begin to have a profound impact.
Classes are led by instructors that have been specifically trained in prenatal yoga and were at least 200 hour registered yoga teachers before training in prenatal yoga.
All Levels Prenatal (in-person & online) classes will give you an all-around prenatal yoga experience that includes elements of labor preparation, sequences to build or maintain strength and encourage stability in the body, opening postures and movements to help prepare the body for childbirth and help relieve tension in the body, deep rest and relaxation, and breath work to cultivate calm in the body. This class is suitable for all levels of practitioners, including beginners. Partners & friends are welcome to attend for the guest fee.

Postpartum Baby & Me Yoga (in-person & online)
This type of class is often called “Mommy & Me” or “Mums & Bub,” but the BM-TF Baby & Me class welcomes those who’ve birthed their babies as well as any other parents and caregivers.
Nurture yourself through mindful movement and breath while your baby is by your side. Get some exercise that is safe, feels great, and is productive for the postpartum stage. You and baby will also have plenty of opportunities to play, stretch, and cuddle. This class is perfect for people 6-8 weeks after they’ve had their babies, or when they’ve been cleared for exercise with their midwife or doctor and up until babies are fast movers. Pre-walking babies will enjoy this class. Crying, feedings, diaper changes, and all baby sounds are expected and welcome! Bring any baby supplies you may need and a blanket on which your baby can lay.
Schedule a weekly group private by splitting the cost of $65/session if the scheduled class time does not work f
A note about prop usage in prenatal yoga classes: The use of props may seem tedious at times, but we use them to support your pregnant body in postures, to allow for more options in movement through all trimester, to keep you safe, and to help you relax more fully and feel great. Classes and private sessions with Baby Moon Tri-Fit are fully equipped with props, including chairs, bolsters, blocks, straps, and blankets, at no charge.
