Réka is a perinatal consultant with over two decades of experience in childbirth education, pregnancy yoga, birth attendance as a doula, and counselling. She offers prenatal consultations. Somatic Focusing for Birth is to help stay aware, focused, present and at ease during this special time, and later on in labour so that you can draw on your natural instincts easily and trust your inner resources.
Réka started practicing yoga at the age of 16 in the Maheshwarananda tradition. After her PhD studies at Oxford University and the birth of her 3 children she initially trained with Dr. Francoise Freedman in 2003 (level 1, London) then in 2005 (level 2, Budapest). Since 2003 Réka has taught pregnancy yoga continuously. In these 20 years, working with literally thousands of expectant mums, she has been passionate about helping them find trust, balance and love in their bodies – especially during pregnancy, at birth and in the postnatal period.
She lives in Chipping Norton, close to Oxford.
My name is Julie, I`m all about birth
I opened my own yogastudio in Ostend: studiomoonbirth where i teach prenatal yoga classes / mama/baby yoga / hypnobirthing and i’m also a doula and birth photographer, as i said all about birth.
Leuk om (digitaal) kennis te maken! Mijn naam is Jessica Zijlema. Ik woon samen met mijn man Sander en onze dochter Sarah in Tiel. Vanuit mijn bedrijf Essential Health bied ik in de Betuwe zwangerschapsyoga, postnatale yoga en mama & baby lessen aan, zowel in groepsverband als individueel.
Sinds 2007 werk ik al als Yoga- en Pilatesdocent en Masseur. Tijdens mijn zwangerschap en bevalling heb ik enorm veel gehad aan de ontspannings- beweeg- en ademhalingstechnieken die ik daaruit kende, en ik had daardoor een prachtige, bijzondere en snelle bevalling. Dit wilde ik graag delen met andere (aanstaande) mama’s! Daarom ben ik na de geboorte van onze dochter gestart met het geven van zwangerschapsyoga lessen en zwangerschapsmassages.Toen een paar jaar later HypnoBirthing op mijn pad kwam, was de cirkel voor mij echt rond.
Het is zo mooi om te zien hoe ontspanning en het vertrouwen in je lichaam je helpt tijdens de geboorte van je kindje, waardoor de bevalling voorspoediger en comfortabeler verloopt. En ik vind het bijzonder dat ik jou als aanstaande ouder de tools mag aanbieden om met vertrouwen en vanuit je eigen kracht je voor te bereiden op een prachtige, ontspannen en mooie komst van je kindje!
Naast yoga kun je bij mij in de studio terecht voor nog veel meer als (aanstaande) ouder, ook samen met je baby of kind:
- ZwangerschapsYoga
- ZwangerschapsPilates
- ZwangerschapsMassage
- Cursus Voorbereiden op de Bevalling
- Postnatale Yoga
- Mama & Baby Yoga en -Pilates
- Babymassage
- Workshops Baby- & Kindergebaren
- Yoga met je Kind
- Moxa therapie bij stuitligging
Regio: Tiel, Buren en Geldermalsen (De Betuwe, Gelderland).
Private classes can also be taught in English

Hola! My name is Josefina Eliggi, I’m an Argentinian yoga teacher (RYT 200+) based in Zurich, and I specialise in yoga for before, after and beyond birth.
Yoga was a fundamental tool in healing my difficult birthing experience after becoming a mother for the first time in 2015. In subsequent years I completed a 200-hour teacher training course, and got certified as a pre- and postnatal yoga teacher.
I’m passionate about helping women embrace the changes that occur during pregnancy, navigate the first few months after childbirth, and rediscover themselves in their new role as mothers while continuing to pursue their goals and aspirations.
Я веду групповые классы и индивидуальные занятия по женской йоге, йоге для беременных и йоге после родов на Юго-Западе Москвы. Также провожу патронаж новорожденных (купание + мамин массаж) с выездом на дом.
Кроме дипломов Birthlight, имею квалификацию преподавателя женской йогатерапии и перинатальной йоги, в т.ч. реабилитация диастаза, по системе Adama Yoga.
I have been teaching Birthlight Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga for 15 years in Zurich, Switzerland. My weekly group classes are both In-Person and Online Live. I teach at Pilates Zürich, Friedaustrasse 17, 8003 Zürich. I also offer Birth Preparation Workshops, Baby Massage and Baby Yoga courses. Please visit my website for more information about my services: http://www.yogadoula.ch
I have experienced and witnessed the transformative effects of the Birthlight practices on women and their families. As a Birthlight Perinatal and Postnatal Yoga Tutor, I am honored to pass on the Birthlight philosophy to yoga teachers and maternity professionals so that they may support families in their own communities.
I offer private instruction both In-Person and Online, and am happy to schedule something with you either at the studio or at your home. Please contact me directly to schedule your session: info@yogadoula.ch
My certification as a Birth and Postpartum Doula rounds out my offering so that I can provide constant, professional and empathetic support through pregnancy, birth and the postnatal year.
Come and enjoy pregnancy yoga. Suitable from 14 weeks to birth. Enjoy gentle stretches and toning. Learn calming breathing techniques that are so beneficial pre and post natally and when birthing. Meet others and share experiences, bond with your baby, prepare for the birth and enjoy time to relax. Suitable for everyone with modifications including for those with pelvic girdle pain.
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 yoga teacher with over 14 years of teaching experiencing, including many years of teaching pre-and post-natal yoga in East London. I have helped many hundreds of women to feel more comfortable, confident and relaxed during their pregnancies and births, and have welcomed back many of them on the other side with their babies – which is always such a joy.
In the words of one of my recent students:
“I would definitely recommend Sarah’s pregnancy yoga classes! They have been a real help to stay healthy and well during pregnancy, both mentally and physically. The class is tailored to pregnant mums, keeping our bodies fit during pregnancy, but Sarah also gives us very helpful tips about positions and breathing during childbirth. She clearly knows what she is talking about and she always takes her time for any concerns or questions. It never feels like she is on a schedule. The classes are more than just yoga. Each session starts with checking in on each other. It’s very helpful to share pregnancy concerns with other ladies going through the same thing. The community of pregnant ladies that we have built in Sarah’s classes is such a wonderful support. I can’t wait to join the post-natal classes with our babies later on!”

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.
Claire x
My name is Karen Wilson and I have been studying and practising yoga for over 10 years here and in America.
My training is recognised by the British Wheel of Yoga, Yoga Alliance and the Register of Exercise Professionals (REPs). I am also fully insured.
My classes incorporate the philosophy of hatha yoga with the asana (postural work) and prananyama (breath control). I teach mixed ability classes, private on-to-one yoga, pregnancy, postnatal, baby yoga and baby massage. (Please check out these pages for more details.)
I started practising in Chicago as a means of meeting people whilst I was on assignment with my job. On my return to the UK I continued my practice, attending various classes whilst continuing my corporate job. In 2009 I decided to re-order my life and combine my passion for yoga with the desire for a ‘career’. I left my 9-5 job and started my teaching diploma. I started teaching my first class a year into my course – 10 years on and I haven’t looked back once!
I have been undertaking professional development in yoga for cancer (those undergoing treatment, post surgery and carer support), long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome as well as additional studies in menstrual cycle awareness and knee rehabilitation.
The last 10 years has seen a lot of change through my life, relocations, job changes, studying, pregnancy, motherhood and even the way in which I practise yoga. However yoga has been with me throughout both on and off the mat regardless of how small a time I can manage to fit in. The yoga philosophy has helped me come to understand and manage these changes and the time of my mat has helped me to hold onto something concrete whilst also understanding that even my yoga practise has to adapt with life.
Based in Wiltshire, I am currently running Well Woman Yoga online via Zoom, Postnatal Yoga for Mothers & Babies face to face in the Bromham Social Centre (socially distanced), Pregnancy/Perinatal Yoga in the White Horse Yoga Studio in Devizes with small groups face to face (as well as women who join online via Zoom) and Chair Yoga which is for anyone who has mobility/health issues, online via Zoom. All classes are carefully planned around the needs of the group with a focus on Pranayama (breathing practices), gentle yoga asanas (postures) and relaxation. My aim is to create a calm and nurturing environment for everyone who attends, giving each person the time and space to take what they need from the session.
My tried and tested live and interactive sessions whether online or in-person are great for creating a lasting bond, stimulating and supporting a baby’s physical, emotional and social development as well as helping to relieve colic, sleeping difficulties, constipation, teething and other ailments.
My baby massage & yoga courses are suitable for all parents and babies, I demonstrate on a doll and only parents massage their baby and you do not need to come from a yoga background.
Baby Massage & Yoga are a perfect pair, beautiful and loving ways to connect & soothe your baby and has fantastic health benefits.
As well as open group sessions, I also offer one to one session do get in touch if I can be of service to you.
I offer pregnancy, postnatal and baby yoga classes and also baby massage classes in the Woking area.

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.
Vera has been practicing yoga since 1992 and teaching from 2004 (holding teaching diplomas across number of disciplines from BWY, Birthlight, Yoga Therapy and Children Yoga). Vera has extensive training in meditation and mindfulness practices and has been supporting women as a birth and postpartum Doula since 2008.
Among her over 2000 hours of training in many traditions of yoga, yoga therapy and doula supporting work, Vera specifically focused on training in yoga nidra, hypnosis and restorative yoga as she feels that without restorative practice and ability to enjoy and come to terms with the stillness, deep transformation is difficult, especially in the current fast-paced environment and this stillness allows our bodies to restore health in a holistic way.
She brings this restorative approach to all therapeutic work she does with focus on provision of support covering all aspects of female lifecycle (from fertility issue through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond).
Particulars: Vera’s Birthlight classes cover well-woman, fertility, pregnancy and postpartum milestones in female life. They are held in small class environment and whilst largely based on Birthlight curriculum also include all the knowledge that Vera has gained in supporting these stages through her yoga therapy and doula work.
Group classes: The classes take place on Mondays, online format and are normally booked in blocks of 5. All details are on https://www.veradubrovina.com/events-booking/. To book your place please send Vera an email (info@veradubrovina.com).
