| Mambo Mama ... a Latin dancercise class for mothers with babies 2-10 months old This class is a latin dancercise class for new mothers and their favorite dance partner - their baby! It is appropriate for babies aged 2 to 10 months. The baby should be small enough that you can comfortably carry him or her in a baby carrier. The baby will be in a baby carrier during the class while you are taught Latin dance steps. It will be a fun workout and a great opportunity to meet other like-minded mamas. Please wear comfortable clothes to class (ie., sweat pants/yoga pants and sneakers). It also introduces your baby to the rhythm of Latin dance music and to the sounds of Spanish language. I danced at home with my babies when they were this age and it often had the added advantage of putting them to sleep! This class has been created by Alejandra Barrera-Sapirstein, the mother of a 3 year old son, Micah. Alejandra is a native of Chile and is the founder of SantiaGOdance.com, teaching latin dance to children and adults in Hoboken and New York. The cost is $12 per class or you can buy a 10 class pass for $115. The 10 class pass can be used at Mambo Mama classes and also at Groovy Baby Music Time classes. The class is held uptown on Fridays at 11.45am at Creative Groove Studio (1200 Park Avenue) starting Friday October 2nd. We will have a sample class uptown at Creative Groove on Friday September 18th at 11.45am. The class is held downtown on Mondays at 11.30am at Devotion Yoga (79 Hudson Street, Suite LL103) starting Monday October 12th. We will have a sample class at Devotion Yoga on Monday October 5th at 11.30am. |
