We have an adult comedy show for parents that you can bring your baby to!

The BYOB Comedy Show: bring your baby, boob, bottle, buggy! (Stroller parking included.)

Bring the baby to the show because they don't understand sh*t yet!

**includes jokes and diapers

Cost: $20 (babies free!) tickets here https://jetbook.co/e/byobzkr3

A note from the owner of The Crow:
BYOB was birthed, pun intended, from my own PTSD from having a colicky baby. I had a really tough time getting through those first 18 months of parenthood and finding a new community of parents that were willing to acknowledge how tough this time was. Now, a survivor of parenting teenagers (who still seem to suffer from colic) I own a comedy club that has programming that specifically uses comedy as a way to cure the baby blues.

Meet up with fellow moms for a stroll along the beach path! This is an informal gathering, no instructor will be leading.

Following Body Boost class on November 7, we’ll be hosting a special popup with AFTER9, who is debuting in Los Angeles for the first time at our class. Are you hating that flimsy, unsupportive nursing bra you’ve been wearing in class? Purge it to AFTER9’s “Burn Bin” after class, and splurge on something new at AFTER9 for 50% off. (You must be okay to be filmed to get the special)

AFTER9 is a line of thoughtfully designed athleisure tops, bras and leggings that moms love to wear at any stage of motherhood. To get there, we measured 500 bumps and 1,000 boobs, and really listened to what they needed. Whether you’re running a 5k or chasing a toddler, our clothes work for gym-time, meeting time, feeding time and every other time that comes up. We believe quality clothes should be able to meet the challenges of being a mom and look good doing it. That’s why we make ours with Italian knit world class fabric. If we can support moms, physically and emotionally, and put a smile on their face, we have done our job. Moms deserve better!
