I’m Julie Bickerton, founder of Nomad Therapy, here to support and nurture you throughout pregnancy, postnatally and through menopause.
My philosophy is to promote positive touch and accessible yoga. Providing a safe space where we can be honest and open about our experiences as women and building a community where friendships are made.
After my training as a baby massage instructor and having my son, my fascination with babies continued to grow and broaden.
Now in my midlife I am expanding my experience to support women through this period of their incredible lives.
I feel very lucky in my vocation. I love what I do and I continue to learn from every woman and baby that I meet.
I am a Birthlight Tutor & teacher in Aqua Natal Yoga and Baby Swim. Hatha Yoga teacher & advanced studies of over 20 years, having tutored for Birthlight in UK, China and Russia. Originally from Liverpool, I now live in Northern Ireland and am a keen sea swimmer.
Studio and Zoom classes include Pregnancy and Post Natal classes for NHS Maternity units, Council facilities and Yoga Quarter Belfast. In addition, I deliver Pre Natal Couples Yoga, Parent and Baby Yoga and Toddler Yoga.
In water classes include: “Baby Bubbles” parent and baby swim, baby nurture up to adult swimming and Pre & Post Aqua Natal.
Pregnancy yoga in Seaford and surrounding areas in East Sussex is suitable for everyone from 14 weeks up to birth. Classes are friendly, informal and provide a wonderful way to remove aches and pains, create more space for your growing bump, care for your posture, encourage baby into the optimal fetal position for birth, learn calming breathing techniques for pregnancy, birth and beyond, feel positive, bond with your bump, prepare for the birth, relax and meet others. Moves are adapted when needed for example for pelvic girdle pain. Classes are run in 5 week blocks on Tuesdays in Seaford and people tend to keep coming until they have their baby. If you miss a week, a recording can be sent. No experience is required before attending.
I am an advocate of promoting yoga as a sustainable lifetime practice in energizing the body and being present in the moment. I have developed my own nurturing style of teaching, incorporating my insights and learnings from my trainings in Well Woman Yoga, Vinyasa Flow and Pranayama. I teach online via Zoom.
Vera has been practicing yoga since 1992 and teaching from 2004. She holds teaching diplomas from British Wheel of Yoga, Birthlight, Yoga Therapy Diploma (YC) and children teaching training from Special Yoga Centre. Vera has extensive training in meditation and mindfulness practices. She also trained as a Doula with Dr Michel Odent.
Vera’s primary focus now is on developing holistic therapeutic approach that supports each woman on her unique journey (issues with female health, postnatal recovery, pregnancy, fertility, menopause) with the use of yoga and other complimentary practices that she picked up along the way.
Vera teaches regular group classes on Mondays in online format (well-woman yoga, postpartum, fertility and pregnancy) as well as having 1-2-1 yoga therapy with clients (both online and face to face in her clinic) who require a developed of more specific programme that can address their specific concerns.

I am passionate about women’s health, from conception, birth to menopause and beyond. The yoga classes I offer to women provide them with invaluable tools to help transform, empower and heal their body’s and minds in a gentle but effective way. I qualified in Birthlight Pre-Natal Yoga in 2007, and Post-Natal Yoga in 2008, and Well Woman Yoga 2020.
I am currently offering on-line group classes via Zoom and face-to-face 1-2-1’s.
I offer pre and postnatal yoga in Brussels (Belgium) and on line.
EN:Women’s bodies are incredibly well prepared for gestation and childbirth. However, sedentary and stressful lifestyles compromise these innate capacities, not to mention how society conceptualizes pregnancy and childbirth as a medical event in which the woman has little or no power. I believe that yoga can help you live a healthier pregnancy and birth: to feel stronger, more mobile, to create the best possible ecosystem for your baby, to avoid debilitating aches and pains, to learn to use all the physiological tools that nature has given you. My classes are fun, intense, compassionate and full of information.
ES: El cuerpo de las mujeres esta increiblemente bien preparado para gestar y parir. Sin embargo, los estilos de vida modernos, sedentarios y estresantes, comprometen esas capacidades innatas, por no hablar de como la sociedad conceptualiza el embarazo y el parto como un suceso médico en el que la mujer tiene poco o ningun poder. Creo que el yoga puede ayudarte a tener un embarazo y un parto saludables: a sentirte más àgil y sana, a crear el mejor ecosistema posible para tu bebe, a evitar molestias y dolores debilitantes, a aprender a utilizar todas las herramientas fisiologicas que la naturaleza te ha dado. Mis clases son divertidas, intensas, amorosas y llenas de información. Búscme en Bruselas, Bélgica, o on line.

Navigation, Intuition and Instinct
… knowing what your options are and how to navigate the pathway is so important … even the suggestion of booking in a sweep starts that ripple off …. go with your intuition and instincts – what feels right for you … navigate, negotiate and have those sensible conversations that support you and your baby so that you get the most out of the journey into motherhood and the best start.
If you are looking for a class that supports you in every way possible then please do connect … spaces available and it’s so much more than a pregnancy yoga class in the traditional sense. A Ripple Effect class is a “one-stop” shop … you get so much in terms of antenatal education, an amazing tool box for pregnancy, labour, postpartum and your everyday life which has yoga, relaxation techniques, breath work, “hypnobirthing” techniques (supporting those who have been to other classes or accessed online platforms), rebozo and self care … as well as meeting other fab ladies who are also on this journey to motherhood. They are a treat and certainly not to be missed. Add in the gorgeous bespoke Space you have a recipe that will support you all the way …
A little about me … I am a gentle soul … I pride myself on the classes I offer and the amazing work that has been shared into the community over the last 18 years … I am sure that as you journey deeper into the classes available in the area you will no doubt be seated next to someone who has been along to a Ripple class and believes that everyone needs a “Claire” … 1200 babies and families to date and 2 of my own doesn’t mean I am an expert but I am hoping I can help you shed some light to support you with your little one.
Look forward to connecting with you.
