baby yoga (uncountable)

  1. A light stretching exercise for babies.
    • (Can we date this quote?), Aurora Brooks, The Controversial Method for Getting Your Baby to Sleep All Night Long, BabyDreamers.net, →ISBN:
      Incorporating massage and baby yoga into a baby's bedtime routine can promote relaxation and better sleep. Gentle massage techniques and stretching exercises can help release tension and create a sense of calmness.
  2. A form of yoga for new mothers, using their child as a weight.
    • 1999, Sarah Brewer, Pregnancy the Natural Way, Souvenir Press:
      The Yoga Therapy Centre also offers combined postnatal and baby yoga classes. These use the weight of the baby to tone the mother's body and during these classes find their bodies become stronger, fitter and more supple than before pregnancy.
