I was inspired by your attention to detail and your sensitivity to children and parents. - Megan Dushin

You created a comfortable yet sacred space in the developmental playgroup. It’s exciting to have the movement patterns of my baby revealed to me. It has been very helpful to hear that the baby is strongly drawn to the next higher level. I’ve been eager for him to get crawling. Now I can appreciate all that he is doing right now to get ready for that next level. Now I can see how all his movements are providing him with the foundation for higher developments without feeling like we need to get there any faster than it’s actually happening. - Nancy Antennucci

This class is great. Experience it! - Leslie Kenney

This experience of sharing with a newcomer to the world all the movement and connection to the earth within our reach is presented masterfully.

It encompasses the all important yoga with relaxation, dance and flexibility along with development and communication through sign language. All yoga should be taught with babes. It made so much sense! I loved the flexibility of the class along with the relaxedness around babies. – Josene Peters

It was very beneficial to discover the movement activities of my child and relate to everyday play and activity. I feel much more connected and aware of why and how my son is moving through and experiencing his world. – Stephanie Lundquist

Cat Burns' playgroup has given me an even greater respect for my son's development. Encouraging moms to lie on the floor with their babies (to either imitate them or even to just watch their movements), Cat shows how babies' brains develop and how the different stages of development come about. This exercise has allowed me to better appreciate this sacred time of my son's life that will be over far too quickly. - Amanda Rian

This class helped me understand the essential progress of my child’s development. - Class evaluation
