Important Info

  • We are a lovely team of teachers, however, as we all run individual separate little businesses ~ thus Class Packages purchased with one teacher, can not be used with another teacher, and are not transferable to other students. Do make a note of which teacher and which location you are booking into!!

  • All class packages must be used up by their expiry date.

  • Join in the first trimester if you already do yoga or exercise regularly. If you are brand new to yoga or exercise, it is recommended to wait until around 15/16 weeks. You can then practice right up to full term. Any concerns, do check with your Dr/Midwife.

  • By booking you are agreeing to our Terms & Conditions (see below). Thank you so much for your understanding.

What People Say …

  • "Your sessions were incredible for so many things. A safe place to come and talk to other people going through the same experience. The breathing and stretches were incredible for my birth experience (I even had a c section and the breathing and flexibility came in wonders for the spinal) and I’ve been able to make some great friends from attending - so thank you so much!"

  • “I did both the Pregnancy Yoga classes and the Antenatal Education to prepare for birth and baby and am so grateful I did. The breathing was amazing and totally got me through it all.”

  • “Classes provide a safe space to exercise whilst exploring your pregnancy and your feelings. My highlight of the week!”

  • “I'm back again for pregnancy number 3! My much needed bit of time out each week. Highly recommend.”

  • “Not only have I loved the Pregnancy Yoga and Postnatal Yoga classes, I am now loving the Women's Yoga too! So nice to have an understanding space for me to continue to explore yoga.”

  • "We found the antenatal classes incredible. We particularly loved how you approach big topics like labour with such positivity and how you covered all the options really impartially, so we could make our own informed decision. We didn’t feel swayed into a certain direction or judged at all.
