“I would thoroughly recommend Birthlight classes to any mum-to-be. Whilst pregnant I attended the pregnancy yoga and also the ‘birth preparation’ classes, both were really worthwhile and I am convinced the relaxation and breathing techniques helped me have a very straight forward delivery and the yoga was so wonderfully relaxing! The baby yoga classes were such a great way to meet other mums and to share similar experiences and through which I met some of my closest ‘mum’ friends and Sally creates such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The baby swimming is fantastic too and really builds confidence in the water in a fun relaxed way. I have been to loads of baby/ toddler groups and the Birthlight groups are really special and by far my favourite. Many thanks.”

“The Birthlight Ante Natal classes helped us by providing factual information and advice in a structured but informal environment. We were supported to reach properly informed decisions about our preferences for birth. This undoubtedly helped us feel ready for the birth, and as a result of being relaxed and at ease, we are convinced that this helped us in the delivery as well.”

"I did Bryony's baby massage and baby yoga classes with my first baby and am now back with my second! She's a wonderful teacher with a very calming and relaxing presence, and I love that her classes involve yoga for the parent as well as the child. I would wholeheartedly recommend both classes, they're a lovely thing to do with your baby."

“The baby yoga classes were the highlight of my week, I felt relaxed and nurtured. I made new friends and we still all meet up a year later. I am sure my baby Matthew benefited form the yoga, I look back on that special time together and treasure the memories.”

"I loved the chance to tune into my pregnant body and really pay attention to what it needed. The classes helped me tune in more deeply to my growing baby and changes within my body. I learned that self care is essential in pregnancy. The classes helped me realise that there is time to practice more self care and simple yoga exercises at home.' The classes helped me realise that my body is capable and strong. I would savour the time each week to have time for myself and my baby. It felt really useful to be able to learn exercises to strengthen my body and relax. All good preparation for birth and Motherhood!”

“Birthlight was an amazing opportunity for me to be in a room with first-time mums as nervous as me. Not only was the ante-natal yoga a chance to relax, but a discussion forum on everything imaginable, from current worries about pregnancy to questions and concerns about the actual birth. This, supplemented with aqua-natal, pure luxury time for mum and bump in the water, made my pregnancies comfortable and relaxing. I made many very close friends through Birthlight. Even after our babies were born, we carried on with baby and post-natal yoga and swimming. Now a mother of two, I am absolutely convinced the classes helped my children be calmer, happier babies. Thank you to Sally and all her colleagues for offering these invaluable classes.”

“I want to thank you (Julia) so much for the help you gave in those last few weeks and for labour itself. The classes helped me from going mad in those overdue weeks, and your gentle advice was crucial in enabling me to get through every contraction, breathe through and let each one go. I truly did not know my body could do that but I didn’t need any drugs apart from gas and air from stitches. I wanted to give the baby the most natural journey into the world, and give us the best chance of bonding and feeding. It is still incredible to me that this was possible. So I want you to know I appreciate it more than I can say.”

“I can thoroughly recommend Sally’s Baby Yoga classes to mums and dads and their baby. Sally creates a wonderfully warm, relaxed atmosphere conducive to relaxation, learning and pure fun. The sessions provides a wonderful opportunity to have true one-to-one time with your baby, strengthening your bond – allowing you to have pleasurable time together free of outside distractions. I have come away with some very happy memories, a repertoire of joyful songs and actions and a greater insight and bond with my child.”

"We can’t thank you enough for equipping us with the tools needed to go through this amazing experience. So good in fact we didn’t really recognise each stage until the end! The knowledge and acceptance you taught us enabled this experience and we will be forever grateful. But next time a home birth!!”

"Pregnancy yoga helped me feel empowered for my second Labour after a slightly traumatic first one. She helped me feel balanced about whatever unfolded and the physical exercises really helped in early Labour. Baby yoga is so wonderful and the highlight of our week. I love the songs and postures - I did with my first (now 3!) and still sing him the songs now. It’s also great to learn things like correct posture and mindfulness postnatally."
