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.

Είμαιι μαία, εκπαιδευτικός, διεθνώς πιστοποιημένη Σύμβουλος Γαλουχίας IBCLC και πιστοποιημένη Birthlight™ Yoga for Maternity teacher.
Έχοντας ολοκληρώσει κύκλους σπουδών στη μαιευτική και στον ανώδυνο τοκετό και εργαζόμενη ως εκπαιδευτικός, στα χρόνια που ακολούθησαν έγινα μητέρα πέντε παιδιών. Οι εμπειρίες που βίωσα η ίδια με τον θηλασμό των 5 παιδιών μου, με ενέπνευσαν να διευρύνω περισσότερο τις γνώσεις μου και την εξειδίκευσή μου για να βοηθήσει και άλλες μαμάδες που ήθελαν να θηλάσουν τα μωρά τους. Έτσι, μετεκπαιδεύθηκα και ως Σύμβουλος Θηλασμού IBCLC και στην περιγεννητική γιόγκα Birthlight™ Yoga for Maternity. Και αργότερα, ένα ακόμη όνειρό μου πήρε μορφή, με τη συνδημιουργία του Κύκλου.
Θα με βρεις στον Κύκλο να παρέχω την υποστήριξή μου με σεμινάρια, ομιλίες και workshops ως Σύμβουλος Θηλασμού σε κάθε στάδιο της μητρότητας, από την εγκυμοσύνη, τον τοκετό, τον θηλασμό, τη σύνδεση της Γυναίκας με το σώμα της και το παιδί της και μέσω μαθημάτων prenatal-postnatal yoga.
Ταυτόχρονα, μπορείς να επικοινωνήσεις μαζί μου και να με επιλέξεις για σύντροφο υποστήριξης σε όλο το ταξίδι της μητρότητας, για μια πολύπλευρη υποστήριξη με ατομικές συνεδρίες, όπου κι αν ζεις.

How can I help you? My students and patients are typically women in their 40s who have struggled with persistent Low Back or Pelvic Pain (and the two are often linked) and find that these pains stop them doing what matters. If you have decided that it’s time to move forwards and you would like to use Yoga-based methods to help, with a teacher who also brings knowledge of healthcare, then I’m here to help. I help my students move more and worry less, feeling strong as they get back to the important things in life.

Expanding breathing capabilities in order to breathe for two, assist during labour and birth.
Pelvic awareness (unfold range of movements and as foundational support for the body).
Tone and release pelvic floor muscles in preparation for labour and beyond.
Boost energy and reduce fatigue.

Adult and child participate with one another exploring Yoga shapes & moves, mindfulness & breath-work through fun themes, music, games and often relaxing storytelling at the end of the class.

Hi,
I’m Charly, an experienced IAIM Certified Baby Massage instructor, Leicester Mammas Breastfeeding Peer Support and a Birthlight Baby Yoga instructor.
I hold five session courses in Syston, as well as taster sessions through the year. Classes are around one and a half hours long, they include refreshments and social time too. When signed up to a course you are added to a WhatsApp group to support you, and allow you to continue conversations with your peer in class.
Sessions are welcoming, non-judgemental and a relaxed environment is created in all sessions.
please note that courses are term time only. It is asked that alternative childcare is arranged for siblings to allow you to bond with your newborn.
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.
My name is Carla and I am a fully qualified Birthlight and STA infant aquatics teacher. In 2005, I trained with a swim school in Cambridge which was ran by Sally Lomas and Amanda Gawthrope. I also worked at Birthlight’s headquarters in admin for a while too. Having taught babies to swim over many years, including my own daughter, I have become increasingly aware of the benefits for newborn babies of learning water confidence from a very young age and the parent and baby bonding that results from being in water. Our aim is to bring parent and baby together through our swim splash classes in a safe, friendly and fun environment that best suits the needs of everyone involved.

Baby Yoga
The gentle movements, focus on your baby and will aid circulation and digestion as well as support muscle tone, coordination, and the development of your baby’s body awareness. Baby Yoga also includes the opportunity to explore movement together and plenty of time to engage and be present with your baby.
Baby Massage
Baby massage allows you to enjoy special, focussed, one-to-one time with your baby in a relaxing environment. There are numerous benefits to massage too as the strokes will stimulate all of your baby’s major body systems and support with relief from constipation or teething as well as your baby’s relaxation as the massage supports the release of calming oxytocin. Only you will massage your baby and the strokes will cover baby’s legs, arms, tummy, chest, face and back.

Yoga-inspired poses, stretches and movements, weaved amongst songs, rhymes and stories, create an inspiring, fun and engaging class for toddlers. Weekly themes keep little ones interested, whilst the classes also introduce your toddler to concepts of relaxation, breathing and gratitude.
