  • Your pregnancy journey

    1-2-1 coaching to help you adapt to pregnancy & prehab for postpartum

    This is for you if:

    - you'd like personal support to help you in pregnancy, birth preparation and postpartum pre-hab

    You might:

    • be experiencing discomfort - often in shoulders, lower back, pelvis

    • have had symptoms in a previos pregnancy that you're keen to avoid this time

    This is more about tuning-in than working out. I can meet you where you're at and have 18 years experience of working with women in pregnancy.

    Emilie's background

    Certified embodiment coach with 18 years experience of supporting mums on their journey to parenthood.

    200 hour trained Yoga Teacher

    Franklin Method Pelcic Fascia Trainer

    Biomechanics for Birth and Advanced Biomechanics for Birth training

    Movement Ecology for Pregnancy and Postpartum

  • This is ideal if you'd like to explore non-clinical support options with an experienced practitioner who can explore options around holistic self care during your pregnancy and to prepare for after birth.

    This often focuses on balance and connection within the pelvis.

    This can include

    - non-judgmental listening

    - nervous system regulation

    - realistic ideas for functional movement

    - focussing on balacing and making space

    - prioritising kind, gradual shifts over productivity

    "I have been surprised by how making the smallest of movements has had a big impact on the way that my body feels. Let go of all the common things you have been told about the pelvic floor and come to one of Emilie's classes and listen and move more consciously and see what happens."

  • What's different ?

    ✅ Shift habits

    Many people find the work week 'undoes' the benefits they get from pregnancy yoga or prenatal massage. This is about getting some helpful ideas for everyday life in place.

    ❌ The focus is not on squeezes

    We'll cover how to find your pelvic floor muscles, learn about how they work and give you options for funtional prenatal and postnatal movement.

    ✅ Trauma Informed

    Emilie's a certified embodied trauma coach and works sensitively.

    ❌ Not a pregnancy yoga class

    My background is in prenatal yoga, but this builds on that to offer a modern, biomechanics informed approach.

    ✅ Whole Body Approach

    That means your emotions too. Rather than just looking at the pelvic floor in isolation, we'll be integrating the whole of you. This approach involves moving your body well and treating yourself with kindness.

    ❌ No stress

    This isn't a class. It's more of a reset.

    Little and often - no need to roll out a yoga mat to get started. Building core foundations, calming your nervous system and building awareness.

  • What are sessions like?

    "The best thing has been having the space to slow down and feel into my body."

    - Chloe, Frome

    “Emilie helped me feel more in control, less apprehensive and to know what to expect, so I could navigate a calmer way through - knowing how to listen and respond to my body.”

    - Alice, Bristol

    “Emilie has really helped me to breathe, stretch and properly listen to my body. "

    - Susie, Brighton

  • Support options:

  • Pregnancy does not need to be uncomfortable.
    Learning more about your body can help you prepare for birth and postpartum in a way that's nurturing, supportive and adapted to you.
    Many women are disconnected from their bodies - and their pelvises in particular.
    Squeezes are not the cure-all that we're told. Bodied need balance and space in order to respond.

  • Emilie's training
