About Yum Yum Yoga

 

Hi my name is Louise and I am the creator of Yum Yum Yoga. I have been in the fitness industry for the past 20 years teaching Yoga, Pilates, Aerobics and linedancing. I have a degree in Leisure and sports studies and 'A' Levels in Theatre Studies, Dance and Communications. I have a daughter Summer who is three years old. She loves to touch her toes to make a Yummy sandwich, stand tall like the Yum Yum tree and roar loud like a lion!

 

Alice is one of the creative team at Yum Yum and runs a class in Wellington. She has two boys; Four-year old Isaac and 8 month-old Felix. Alice has a First Class BA (hons) Playwork degree as well as A-levels in Dance and Communication Studies. Alice has practiced yoga over the last ten years and comes from a musical background. She has 10 years experience working with children and feels passionately that children are the experts at playing! Through play children master skills in all areas of development. The interwoven mix of yoga, music, dance, movement and imaginary play at Yum Yum Yoga help to nurture, inspire and encourage children to do what they do best - play!
Children are natural yogis and do yoga moments quite naturally. With help and guidance we would like to help you do the same with your child.

We are really chilled out relaxed people so please don’t worry if your child is shy or doesn’t want to join in straight away. With you participation and encouragement they will be fine! Don’t worry if you think your child won’t sit still. The Yum Yum philosophy is relaxed nurturing one with a free spirited approach.

Children learn from repetition, rhythm and rhyme. So we keep things simple and repeat them. We will sing some songs you know like ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ pretending to be a star. We have also written some simple Yum Yum tunes and rhymes to go with the movements. Don’t worry if singing isn’t your thing you can have just as much fun listening. We also have some lovely props to make the class even more fun and magical.

Please wear suitable loose fitting clothing, bare feet and bring a drink for the both of you. Bring a mat or something similar for both you and your child. We believe Yum Yum yoga holds the magic that will allow today’s children to be healthy in mind, body and spirit.

So skip, slither, bounce or fly over to your nearest Yum Yum Yoga class.
We would love to see you!
