Are you due in September or early October? 🤍

My next 6-week Pregnancy Yoga & Hypnobirthing term begins on Tuesday 21st July and is the perfect opportunity to prepare for birth while taking some time for yourself.

Each week combines:
🩷 Gentle pregnancy yoga
🩵 Evidence-based birth education
🩷 Practical hypnobirthing techniques
🩵 Relaxation and breathing tools
🩷 Time to connect with other local mums

Suitable from 14 weeks right up until birth, but if you’re hoping to complete the full term before your baby arrives, this course is ideal for those due between September and mid-October 2026.

Spaces are limited. Message me to book or find out more.

💗 The Fear–Tension–Pain Cycle 💗

When we feel scared or anxious, our body naturally responds by becoming tense.

That tension can reduce blood flow and oxygen to our muscles, making sensations feel more intense and uncomfortable.

This is known as the Fear–Tension–Pain Cycle.

The good news? We can learn ways to help break the cycle.

✨ Conscious breathing helps calm the nervous system and encourages relaxation.

✨ Education helps us understand what’s happening in our bodies, reducing fear and increasing confidence.

✨ Gentle movement helps release tension, improve circulation and prepare the body for birth.

This is why my Pregnancy Yoga & Hypnobirthing classes combine movement, education, relaxation and connection – helping you feel informed, supported and empowered as you prepare for birth.

Have you heard of the Fear–Tension–Pain Cycle before? Let me know in the comments 👇

🌞 Pregnancy in a heatwave is like wearing a winter coat in July.

Be kind to yourself. Slow down, cool off, and remember: surviving is productive enough today. 💛

Does anyone else have a needy dog in this heat!!! We have fans, cool mats, paddling pool but no! He wants to be on my lap! As close time as he can! Babies can be exactly the same! Just when you need space they want skin to skin, cluster feeds and basically their mum 24-7! And the reason is you are their safe space! They don’t understand why they feel uncomfortable so they seek comfort from you, their mum! So just when you are touched out, hot and sweaty, your baby decides they want to be a baby kangaroo and attach themselves to you! So shout out to all the mums out there! I hear you! I hope you have someone bringing you icy water, ice cream, and are sitting with a fan! You are amazing!

What happens in our baby massage and yoga classes? Class always starts with some lovely gentle movement for mums.

Gentle movement after birth can support physical recovery, emotional wellbeing, and a gradual return to everyday activities. Benefits may include:

* Improved circulation, which can help reduce stiffness and swelling.
* Support for healing and recovery by encouraging gentle mobility.
* Reduced muscle tension, particularly in the neck, shoulders, back, and hips from feeding, carrying, and caring for a baby.
* Improved mood and energy levels through the release of endorphins and opportunities for self-care.
* Enhanced body awareness and reconnection with the core, pelvic floor, and breathing patterns.
* Better posture and movement habits, which may help reduce aches and pains.
* Increased confidence in returning to physical activity at a pace that feels right for the individual.

Classes are suitable from around 6 weeks after birth depending on your birth and recovery, and we can always make adaptations to suit your comfort levels or you can just sit out the movement part until you feel ready.

We then do some movement for babies, some singing, we learn a lovely massage routine for baby, some sensory play and more and we always finish class with a cuppa, a biscuit and a chat!
