"Without doubt the baby massage and baby yoga with Bryony was the most memorable and special class I did during maternity leave. Highly recommended. You don’t have to be “into” yoga to enjoy this!"

“The course exceeded our expectations! We both feel very well equipped to go into birth in a positive way and feel excited about getting things started and going through the experience as a couple. We found the sessions inspirational and an opportunity to explore our emotions around becoming parents. Becky and Sally were fantastic, encouraging, fun and full of useful information. We felt very fortunate to have received some of their wisdoms! We look forward to seeing you both once the babies are in town.”

“I used all of my yogic knowledge and sensitivity and did not realise until today just what I was taught at Birthlight by yourself (Melanie) and Sally. I think BY is one of the most precious gifts in the world! To change a mother’s experience, the scope is just WOW, but to be a small seed within that journey … I sleep peacefully and thank you for your passed down knowledge.”

"I have been attending Bryony's pregnancy yoga classes for few months now and I absolutely love them. I eagerly wait for Wednesday for the class. It is great to see the sense of community she has created in the class where everyone can openly discuss issues they are facing. She does pep and informative talks on various topics for pregnancy and post birth which are very useful. And of course the meditation, yoga postures and exercises we do for pregnancy and birth are great. Overall I love the class and would definitely recommend this to other pregnant ladies."

“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.”

“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 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 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!”

“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.”

"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!!”
