‘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
‘Emilie is down to earth and friendly; she creates an inclusive and warm environment for the classes. I would recommend these classes for the all essential 'me' time during pregnancy as they've really helped me to breathe, stretch and properly listen to my body.’ - Suzie
