CPR & Infant Safety Class for New & Expecting Parents
Nobody wants to picture the worst-case moment with their baby. But knowing exactly what to do, before you ever need it, is the kind of calm that lets you actually settle into those early days instead of bracing through them
This 2.5-hour workshop puts the skills in your hands: infant CPR, choking relief, safe sleep, and baby-proofing, taught by a certified instructor in a small group where you can ask anything. You'll practice the techniques yourself, not just watch them, so they're there when it counts
What you'll learn:
Infant CPR & choking relief: step-by-step techniques for babies under one
Home & sleep safety: safe sleep guidelines, baby-proofing, and preventing common accidents at home
Emergency preparedness: when to call for help, and what to do in a fall or allergic reaction
Hands-on practice & Q&A: real-time guidance and your questions answered in a supportive small group
For expecting parents, new parents, grandparents, and anyone who'll be caring for a baby. No prior CPR experience needed
One ticket covers you and your partner, ensuring a personalized learning experience with ample time for questions and hands-on practice. This class is designed to build confidence rather than certify—while it does not include official CPR/first aid certification, it focuses on real-world skills to help you respond effectively in emergencies.

House Rules
These rules create a safe, respectful, and nurturing space for mothers to connect, share, and support one another without judgment.
Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. This ensures a safe space for open and honest conversation without fear of judgment or gossip.
Non-Judgment: We come from different experiences and perspectives, and all feelings, choices, and experiences are valid. This is a space where everyone’s journey is respected.
Active Listening: When someone is speaking, we listen attentively and without interruption, holding space for their words, emotions, and experiences.
Speak from the Heart: Share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences honestly and authentically, using "I" statements (e.g., "I feel...") to express your own perspective.
No Comparison: Each mom’s experience is unique. Avoid comparing or offering unsolicited advice unless asked, and instead, offer empathy and understanding.

Respect for Silence: It's okay to take a pause or simply listen without feeling the need to speak. Silence is just as valuable as words in this space.

Movement and Melodies with Monique
Ages 0 to 5, one caregiver per child
Little ones are wired for music. Come sing, sway, clap, and play together in a cozy afternoon of music and movement led by Monique, a professional singer and AYL teacher. We’ll move through songs, simple rhythms, and playful movement made for little bodies, with plenty of room for wiggles, wandering, and happy noise. Babies can soak it in from your lap while toddlers and preschoolers dance it out.
What to expect
Monique brings a voice made for the stage and a gentle, playful way with little ones. Expect familiar songs and a few new favorites, clapping and stomping games, bouncing and swaying, and simple rhythm play that invites every age to join in their own way. There’s no right way to participate here. Some kids sing every word, some watch wide-eyed from a lap, and some wander the room the whole time. All of it counts.
Caregivers are part of the fun, too. You’ll sing, move, and play alongside your child, and leave with a few songs to bring home for bath time, car rides, and slow afternoons.
Who it’s for
Movement and Melodies is made for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers from birth to age 5, each with one caregiver. Parents, grandparents, and nannies are all welcome. Siblings within the age range need their own spot.
A weekend family activity in Austin
Looking for something to do with your little one on a Saturday in Austin? This music and movement class is an easy way to get out of the house, meet other families, and spend an afternoon making happy noise together. Austin Yoga Lounge is Austin’s home for prenatal and postpartum movement, with baby and me classes and family events that grow right along with your child.
Getting here
We’re in the Carriage House at 1008 West Ave in Old West Austin, the smaller building tucked behind the main house. Enter the parking lot from 11th St. On weekends, you can park anywhere in the lot. Shoes come off at the door, and snacks are provided for grown-ups. Arrive about 10 minutes early to get everyone settled.
Gratitude Sculpt: Prenatal & Postpartum Strength with Monique
For pregnant and postpartum women. This is a grown-ups-only class, so no babies this time.
Your body carries so much, whether that’s a growing belly, a baby on your hip, or both. This Thanksgiving week, we’re thanking it the best way we know how: by getting strong together.
Gratitude Sculpt is a pre/postnatal strength class at Austin Yoga Lounge, led by Monique. Expect light weights, bodyweight work, and steady breath, with movement that supports the parts of you doing the heavy lifting right now: legs, glutes, back, shoulders, and core. Every exercise comes with options, so whether you’re in your first trimester, your third, or months into postpartum, you’ll find a version that fits.
What to expect
We move with the breath, exhaling on the effort, and keep the focus on how you feel rather than how much you can do. There’s room to rest whenever you need it. You’ll close with a few quiet minutes to notice what your body has carried you through, and what it’s still carrying.
As with any movement in pregnancy or postpartum, check with your provider about what’s right for you.

Tea Tuesday
A slow morning if you’re craving a moment out of the house that doesn’t cost a penny
Some mornings you don’t need a class. You need a warm cup in your hands, a comfortable seat, and a few other people who understand exactly where you are right now.
Tea Tuesday is a slow morning at Austin Yoga Lounge for anyone craving a moment out of the house. Come be surrounded by others, let the kettle do its thing, and let the morning unfold at its own pace. There’s no agenda and nothing to prepare for. Just good company and a quiet space to land.
What to expect
You’ll walk into the Carriage House, our studio tucked behind the main house on West Ave in Old West Austin, and find tea brewing and snacks set out. Pull up a seat on the floor or a cushion, settle in, and stay as long as feels right.
Some mornings the conversation flows easily. Other mornings it’s quieter, and that’s welcome too. You can talk about sleep, feeding, birth plans, or nothing at all. The point is simply being somewhere other than your living room, with people who get it.
From time to time, we’ll invite a guest from Austin’s birth and parenting community to join the circle and share what they know. When there’s a guest, we’ll say so in the event listing.
Who Tea Tuesday is for
Whether you’re in the last stretch of pregnancy, in the blur of the fourth trimester, or just ready for a little connection, you’re welcome here.
You don’t need to be an AYL student to come. Tea Tuesday is a gentle way to see the studio, meet a few faces, and find your people in Austin.

Understanding Your Baby’s Brain: A Nurture Neuroscience Circle
So much of early parenting is guessing. Is this normal? Should they be doing more? Am I doing enough? This gathering gives expecting and new mothers something steadier to stand on: a clear look at how a baby’s brain actually develops, and why your closeness matters so much in these early months.
What we’ll cover
How a baby’s brain grows in pregnancy and the first year
How nurture and connection shape resilience later in life
What your baby is developmentally ready for, and what they aren’t yet
A guided connection practice between you and your baby, whether they’re in your arms or still on the way
Time to share and connect with other mothers
Who it’s for
Expecting mothers and new mothers in Austin. Pre-crawling babies are welcome to join you, so come as you are, feeding, rocking, or pacing in the back.

Your Mental Health, Before and After Birth
So much shifts in pregnancy and in the months after. Your body, your hormones, and the way your mind holds worry all change, and it helps to understand what's happening before you find yourself in the middle of it.
In this workshop, we'll look at how pregnancy and birth can shape your experience of anxiety and depression, what those feelings can look like, and how common they really are. The goal is for the harder emotions to feel less isolating and more like something you can meet with support and tools in hand. Together, we'll move gently, sit with the fears and worries this season tends to stir up, turn toward your own strengths, and build a concrete plan for caring for your mental health before and after birth.
This is for anyone who is pregnant and preparing for postpartum, whether this is familiar territory or you simply want to walk in ready. Think of it as a warm hug for your mind as you get ready to become a parent.

Your little headliner will sharpen their focus with a custom high-contrast book made for the Austin heat, hunt for hidden egg shakers during sensory tummy time, and pop bubbles during our main-stage finale. Grab your VIP pass, bring your tiny rockstar, and discover how music, rhythm, and sensory play set the stage for lifelong communication!

House Rules
These rules create a safe, respectful, and nurturing space for mothers to connect, share, and support one another without judgment.
Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. This ensures a safe space for open and honest conversation without fear of judgment or gossip.
Non-Judgment: We come from different experiences and perspectives, and all feelings, choices, and experiences are valid. This is a space where everyone’s journey is respected.
Active Listening: When someone is speaking, we listen attentively and without interruption, holding space for their words, emotions, and experiences.
Speak from the Heart: Share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences honestly and authentically, using "I" statements (e.g., "I feel...") to express your own perspective.
No Comparison: Each mom’s experience is unique. Avoid comparing or offering unsolicited advice unless asked, and instead, offer empathy and understanding.
Support, Not Fixing: This is a space to offer support, not solutions. Sometimes just being heard is enough—let's hold space for each other’s emotions without trying to "fix" them.
Respect for Silence: It's okay to take a pause or simply listen without feeling the need to speak. Silence is just as valuable as words in this space.
Honor Your Needs (and your baby's): If at any point you need to step out, take a break, or check in with yourself or your baby, honor that need without explanation or guilt.
Compassion and Empathy: Approach each other’s experiences with compassion and empathy, recognizing that motherhood is complex, and we all have our own challenges and triumphs.
CPR & Infant Safety Class for New & Expecting Parents
Nobody wants to picture the worst-case moment with their baby. But knowing exactly what to do, before you ever need it, is the kind of calm that lets you actually settle into those early days instead of bracing through them
This 2.5-hour workshop puts the skills in your hands: infant CPR, choking relief, safe sleep, and baby-proofing, taught by a certified instructor in a small group where you can ask anything. You'll practice the techniques yourself, not just watch them, so they're there when it counts
What you'll learn:
Infant CPR & choking relief: step-by-step techniques for babies under one
Home & sleep safety: safe sleep guidelines, baby-proofing, and preventing common accidents at home
Emergency preparedness: when to call for help, and what to do in a fall or allergic reaction
Hands-on practice & Q&A: real-time guidance and your questions answered in a supportive small group
For expecting parents, new parents, grandparents, and anyone who'll be caring for a baby. No prior CPR experience needed
One ticket covers you and your partner, ensuring a personalized learning experience with ample time for questions and hands-on practice. This class is designed to build confidence rather than certify—while it does not include official CPR/first aid certification, it focuses on real-world skills to help you respond effectively in emergencies.
Returning to Work After Maternity Leave | Austin Postpartum Workshop
THIS SESSION WILL BE HELD VIA ZOOM Returning to work after having a baby is often far more complex than people expect. Even when things are “going well,” many parents find themselves navigating exhaustion, shifting priorities, and a new sense of responsibility that can feel difficult to hold alongside professional life.
The transition back to work is not simply logistical. It is physical, emotional, and deeply personal. Many parents are still recovering from pregnancy and birth, adjusting to disrupted sleep, and learning how to care for a baby while also showing up in demanding professional environments. At the same time, identity often shifts in unexpected ways. Who you were before parenthood may no longer feel fully aligned with who you are now.
This workshop offers practical, compassionate support for navigating this season without pretending it is easy. Together we will explore realistic strategies that support both wellbeing and sustainability during the first year of returning to work.
The session focuses on the areas that tend to matter most during this transition:
• Supporting physical energy and recovery during a season of interrupted sleep
• Understanding the mental and emotional shifts that come with new parenthood
• Creating simple systems that make daily life more manageable
Participants will leave with practical tools that can be applied immediately, including:
• A clearer understanding of how to support energy, sleep, and nourishment while balancing work and parenting
• Practical frameworks for navigating identity shifts, guilt, expectations, and boundaries as a working parent
• Simple ways to use support systems, workplace flexibility, and temporary solutions to reduce overwhelm
• Strategies for approaching the first year back at work with more sustainability and self-compassion
This workshop is designed for parents who are preparing to return to work, newly back from leave, or within the first year of navigating work and parenthood. Whether you are feeling confident, uncertain, or somewhere in between, this space offers thoughtful guidance and realistic tools for the transition.

Nourishing the Mother: Ayurveda for the Postpartum Journey
The first 42 days after birth — often called the Sacred Window — are a profound and powerful time for healing, nourishment, and restoration. In many traditional cultures, this early postpartum period is honored as a golden opportunity to set the foundation for a mother’s long-term health, vitality, and emotional wellbeing.
We’re excited to invite you to a special 90-minute workshop where we’ll explore Ayurvedic postpartum care and how you can bring these time-honored practices into your own life or the lives of the families you support.
In this class, you'll learn how the postpartum period is marked by an increase in vata dosha (the energy of air and space) — and why grounding, warming, and deeply nurturing practices are essential to bring balance back to the system after birth.
We'll cover:
✨ Foundational principles of postpartum healing
✨ Herbal and dietary guidance to rebuild strength
✨ Body therapies like abhyanga (nourishing oil massage)
✨ Lifestyle practices to soothe the nervous system and promote recovery
You'll leave with practical, actionable tools you can start using right away — plus a collection of Ayurvedic recipes designed to support nourishment and healing after birth.
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, often called the “Science of Life,” is an ancient holistic system of medicine that supports the wellbeing of body, mind, and spirit. It addresses the root causes of imbalance and offers tools to reconnect with our innate ability to heal.

The Carrier Edit: Find Your Babywearing Fit
The Carrier Edit
Try carriers on, cut through the advertising noise, and find the one that actually fits you and your baby.
RSVP to joinBabywearing looks different at every stage
The newborn days, when closeness is its own kind of regulation
The fourth trimester, getting things done without putting baby down
A toddler along for the ride, saying yes to the kind of adventure you'd have talked yourself out of otherwise

Free Prenatal Yoga in the Park | Austin, TX
We're gathering for a free outdoor prenatal practice under the Monkey Tree, a slow morning together for pregnant students who want to move on the grass and maybe stay for a swim afterward
This is a gentle, accessible practice designed for any trimester. Bring whatever modifications and pace your body is asking for, with no expectation to keep up with anyone, including yourself. The springs are right there if you want to dip in after class, and the Monkey Tree is one of those Austin landmarks worth visiting even when you're not pregnant, so we figured we'd combine the two
What to bring A yoga mat, water, and anything else that helps you feel comfortable on the lawn: a towel, sunscreen, a blanket for after
Good to know The class is free. If you want to swim, Barton Springs Pool charges admission after 8 am, so plan to enter the pool area after our practice if you're staying. Sign up below so we can send the exact meet-up location and any weather updates the day before
Why We're Doing This
Austin Yoga Lounge is a prenatal and postpartum yoga studio in central Austin. We teach yoga classes, host birth and breastfeeding workshops, and build community for women at every stage of motherhood. Our studio is small on purpose, our teachers specialize in prenatal and postpartum movement, and we have snacks, hair ties, and even electrolytes waiting for you when you walk through the door.
But some of the best moments happen outside the studio. Community events like this one exist because we believe the village matters just as much as the practice. Motherhood can feel isolating, especially in the early days, and sometimes all it takes is an hour in the park with other women who get it to remind you that you're not doing this alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need yoga experience? Not at all. This class is designed for all levels. If you can breathe, you can do this.
Is this safe for pregnancy? Lindsey is trained in prenatal yoga and will offer modifications throughout class. Let her know where you are in your pregnancy and she'll make sure you're supported.
What if it rains? We'll send a message to all registered attendees with weather updates. If it's raining, we'll reschedule for another date.
Is this really free? Yes. No catch. Just yoga in the park with good people.
