Reconnect with Yourself

Regain your Strength

Support your adjustment to Motherhood

Becoming a mother, whether it is for the first or third time, is a huge change, sometimes even a shock, emotionally, physically and mentally. It is an incredible journey, however it can feel difficult to carve out time for ourselves. And at this crucial time when we have a baby who needs us, it is maybe even more vital to resource ourselves with healing, strengthening and nourishing Yoga practices for our bodies, minds and hearts. 

Post-natal Yoga is designed to support you to reconnect with yourself, recover, help you regain your strength and adjust to your role as a mother. Yoga practices will be gentle yet effective, adapted to suit new mums to address the physical and emotional challenges many new mothers face. Yoga practices will also be offered that can be easily and simply integrated into your daily life with your baby.

This is a nourishing and safe space for you to connect with yourself and be with your baby. Classes will focus on stabilising, strengthening, releasing tension and supporting you to rest deeply.

Everyone is welcome.

Classes are generally suitable once you have had your post-natal check up and generally for a vaginal birth from 6 weeks and for a C-section birth from 8 weeks. Although Yoga is generally safe, everybody is different, so it is important to consult with your healthcare practitioner before starting Yoga.
