My mum and I were treated to RedBalloon’s Mother’s Day Retreat at Urban Yoga, a modern yoga studio in Surry Hills, Sydney.
We were welcomed with cups of their soothing house-blend tea, before we entered the peaceful candle-lit practice room.
Fiona took us through a simple partner yoga sequence. It was very doable for beginners like Mum and I – such a fun bonding experience. I think we got an extra work-out for our abs because we were giggling the whole time!
We were then treated to a scrumptious and nutritious morning tea of fresh fruit and veg, dips, cheeses, healthy baked goods and cold pressed juices.
The next event on the agenda was a special talk from Michelle of A Healthy View, who enlightened us on how we can improve our health and wellbeing simply through nutrition.
We finished the day with some full-scale pampering: makeup demonstrations from Napoleon Perdis, cupcake decorating with Sparkle Cupcakery and making our own terrariums to take home.
Thank you to RedBalloon for such a relaxing, indulgent experience!

Naomi Simson, RedBalloon Founding Director, said “Mother’s Day is a really special day. It is a time to thank our mums and show them how much we appreciate everything they do for us throughout the year.
“We’re seeing a clear favourite among Aussie mums for shared experiences. At RedBalloon we’ve witnessed a spike in our ‘for 2’ experiences, proving that mums just want to spend some quality time with their children on Mother’s Day.”
