Why it works

An hour-long class once a week is the opposite of how babies learn

When my son was three months old, we took him to a baby acrobatics class. Great instructor, great energy. But fifteen minutes in he was done, and there I was trying to get him through another forty-five.

Babies learn movement in short, fresh bursts, not one long session a week.

Research points the same way: in a 2021 study of preterm babies, the ones whose physio coached their parents improved more by 18 months than the ones whose physio worked hands-on with them, likely because the parents kept going at home. (Akhbari Ziegler et al., Acta Paediatrica)

An hour-long class, once a week

My son was done after 15 minutes

10–15 minutes a day, in short bursts

70–105 minutes a week, every one of them while the baby is fresh

Practice Checked out Nothing

Strength coaches call this greasing the groove: little and often, never to exhaustion. With a baby it looks like this:

Diaper changeA few bicycle kicks

Floor timeSome grip practice

In your armsA quick inversion

What parents are saying

★★★★★ Trusted by 5,000+ families

★★★★★
My husband was naturally intuitive and playful with how he interacted with our son Til and I was envious of this... especially because he was born two months premature. Baby Acrobatics helps me play and connect with Til in a genuinely beautiful and fun way, plus I know I am supporting his growth and wellbeing. My little guy smiles and laughs. I LOVE it!

He is making huge progress, dude is starting to understand crawling movements and he’s not yet 4 months old. The best part? Connection! I’m bonding so deeply with my boy and he absolutely loves it.

★★★★★
It has given us so much confidence as parents - seeing how these exercises support our baby’s growth and brain development. The progress is noticeable every day.
DDM5 months
★★★★★
My son is born 2 months premature, and he is still meeting all of his milestones, and I think it’s largely thanks to this program.

I have 6-month-old twins, one diagnosed with CP, and in doing a deep dive on neuroplasticity I realized the importance of varied movement on brain development.

I am a PE teacher and I know the importance of starting exercising as early as possible. My boy Ognen is 1 month old and we already did some of the exercises.

Exercises

~4

Minutes

Baby on back. Gently hold baby's forearm and guide one arm up overhead, then lower it back down. Switch to the other arm. Alternate smoothly, 5-10 reps per arm. Keep it gentle and rhythmic.

Lay your baby on their back and support both legs just below the knees. Gently bring both knees towards their chest, then guide their legs back out. Repeat the curling and extending movement in a slow, steady rhythm, keeping it gentle and comfortable.

Lay your baby on their back or support them in sitting. Offer an easy-to-hold toy at the centre of their body and wait for them to reach and wrap their whole hand around it. Let them explore, then offer it to the other hand. Try different shapes and textures, or offer one toy in each hand. Choose toys that are safe for mouthing, with no small or loose parts.

Unlock with the Movement Mastery Method

Lay your baby on their back with their knees comfortably bent. Slide one hand under their bottom, cupping the base of their spine, and rest your other hand on their tummy. Gently rock their pelvis from side to side in small, smooth movements. You can also make tiny circles, first in one direction, then the other. Keep the rhythm slow and gentle.

Unlock with the Movement Mastery Method

Baby on back holding your thumbs. Move arms in wide arcs - from sides, up overhead, down to chest. Then reverse: chest, up overhead, out to sides. Keep movement smooth.

Baby on back. Gently spread arms wide, opening the chest. Lift arms overhead then out to sides. Opens up the front body which often gets tight from curled positions.

This is what a few minutes looks like

For a newborn it’s this: a few arm raises, some knee-to-chest, a bit of grip practice. About four minutes.

Tap through the ages and you’ll see it grow with the baby, all the way to overhead lifts and frog hops around the first birthday.

The exercises are in both gifts. The Blueprint has them with step-by-step photos, plus 5 ready-made routines: tummy time, gas relief, bedtime, morning and a gentle newborn start.

Movement Mastery adds a video of every move and a new routine like this one every week, matched to their baby.

Andri Peetso with his wife and their two kids on the beach

Why I built this

When my son was born, I was set on giving him every possible opportunity to grow into a strong, healthy, confident kid. I couldn’t leave it alone.

That search led me to a Guinness World Record-holding instructor with 40+ years of experience training babies and children. What I learned in his class changed my family. I’ve spent the last two years turning it into a system any parent can follow at home, with licensed pediatric OTs reviewing every exercise.

I’m not a physical therapist. I’m a dad who gets obsessed when something matters. Years ago I was diagnosed with MS. Instead of accepting what doctors told me, I spent years going deep into research, eventually publishing a book on some of the things I discovered. Two years of deep research, no shortcuts.

Baby Acrobatics comes from that same obsession.

My name is Andri Peetso, and everything in this program exists because I needed it first (and because I got hyperfixated on building this).

P.S. Baby not born yet? That’s great timing. They’ll have it ready for the very first weeks, which is exactly when I was too scared to even hold our son. – Andri
