Parent and Toddler Fitness and Yoga Classes in Edmonton

Finding time to work out as a new parent can feel impossible. Add in a busy toddler who wants to be by your side, and it gets even trickier. Luckily, Edmonton has some great toddler and parent yoga and fitness classes that let you move your body, bond with your little one, and meet other moms at the same time.

Whether you’re looking for yoga, dance, or just an active way to burn some energy together, here are the best options around the city.

Mommy Connections – Parent and Toddler Programs

Mommy Connections is well-known in Edmonton for their community-driven classes. Their Parent and Toddler classes are a huge hit in Edmonton with moms who want structured activities without the pressure for themselves and their toddler.

• Each week, you and your toddler try something new—music, gymnastics, swimming, crafts, and more.

• Classes rotate between different local businesses, so you get to discover new spots in the city.

• The program runs in both Edmonton and St. Albert, with multiple start dates each year.

City of Edmonton Recreation Centres

Most of the City of Edmonton rec centres offer parent and toddler fitness programs throughout the year. These are usually session-based or drop-in classes where moms (or dads!) can work out while little ones join in the fun.

• Classes range from yoga and gentle movement to stroller fitness and toddler play gyms.

• Cost is affordable—often the same as a regular rec drop-in (around $7–10).

• Bonus: Rec centres usually have family change rooms and play spaces for before and after class.

Check the City of Edmonton recreation guide for updated schedules.

Barre, Dance, and Movement Studios

A few local studios offer baby and toddler-friendly movement classes where you can stretch, dance, and move alongside your child:

• Barre classes often allow toddlers to sit beside you with toys, or join in the fun with simple movements.

• Dance studios sometimes run parent and toddler movement or music-based programs—great for toddlers who love to wiggle.

It’s best to check directly with neighbourhood dance or barre studios near you, as offerings change seasonally. Here are a few studios you can look into: Aradia Fitness

Tips Before You Go

• Pack extra snacks and water - toddlers get hungry quickly.

• Bring a favorite small toy or blanket for downtime moments.

• Arrive a little early so your toddler can explore the space before class starts.

• Don’t worry if your child doesn’t “follow along” - just being there is the win.
