New Class Spotlight: Mommy and Me Flow
At Sol Space, we’re excited to introduce our newest offering: Mommy and Me Flow—a joyful class that blends yoga, mindful movement, and Latin dance with your little one right by your side. Whether you wear your child, let them move alongside you, or partner-dance together, this class is designed to strengthen not only your body but also your bond.
Why Movement with Your Child Matters
Research shows that shared physical activity between parent and child fosters stronger emotional connections and secure attachment. A study from the Journal of Family Psychology found that parent-child synchrony—moving in rhythm with one another—supports empathy, trust, and long-term relational health. When you move together, your child feels attuned to you, and you both experience a greater sense of closeness.
For babies and toddlers, being included in movement is more than fun—it’s brain-building. The American Academy of Pediatrics notes that early movement experiences support motor development, balance, and coordination, laying the groundwork for future learning. For parents, combining movement with caregiving can also lower stress hormones and increase oxytocin, the “bonding hormone.”
The Role of Music, Rhythm, and Coordination
Music and rhythm add another layer of connection. Dancing, swaying, or flowing to a beat is one of the oldest ways humans have bonded. Neuroscientists at the University of Oxford have found that group movement in time with music increases feelings of social closeness and even releases endorphins that boost mood.
Rhythm and coordination also play a vital role in everyday life. From walking, climbing stairs, and driving to typing or cooking, nearly every activity requires coordinated movement. Developing this awareness early helps children build confidence in their physical abilities while parents benefit from a playful, full-body practice that sharpens both mind and body.
What to Expect in Mommy and Me Flow
Gentle yoga-inspired movements that invite strength, balance, and breath awareness
Playful Latin dance sequences where rhythm and fun take center stage
Options to keep your child close in a carrier or encourage them to join the movement on the mat
A warm, supportive environment where connection matters more than perfection
Each class closes with grounding breathwork and moments of stillness, leaving you and your little one more centered and connected.
Why You’ll Love It
Mommy and Me Flow isn’t just a class—it’s a chance to create memories, deepen your relationship, and show your child that movement and music are a joyful part of life. Whether your baby giggles in your arms or your toddler joins in the dance, you’ll both walk away with stronger bodies, lighter hearts, and a deeper bond.
