Hi I’m Julia Willoughby. As a Childbirth Educator and Pre and Post Natal yoga teacher I am delighted to support you during this special time of your life. Yoga is a wonderful tool for both body and mind for navigating the joys, surprises and challenges on this journey. Developing inner resources, together with practical skills and knowledge, gives you the best possible foundation for birth and parenting.
The classes and workshops offer you the opportunity to connect with other women and create support and friendship.
I look forward to meeting you and sharing this journey with you.
Prenatal Yoga & Active Birth Classes
Prenatal Yoga practices give you the skills, knowledge and confidence to actively participate in labour and birth in an empowered way and have a positive birth experience however your labour unfolds.
Mums and Bubs Classes
These classes provide a relaxing and supportive environment for new mothers and their babies with safe post natal yoga as well as circle time to share the joys and challenges of mothering
Active Birth Workshops for Couples
This workshop for couples helps partners to understand the vital role they play during labour and will provide them with skills and ideas to really make a difference!
The first 6 weeks workshop
This half-day interactive workshop is for expectant couples who would like to start their parenting journey with excitement and confidence!
Come and join our supportive group of pregnant women and new mums who are, or have, reclaimed their power and confidence to birth and mother their children. FB live sessions for Morning Wake up Yoga, as well as lots of informative birth education coming up.
Finding you was one of the best things I think I could have done for pregnancy self-care and to prepare myself and my partner for the birthing experience. Your yoga classes, but also your generosity with resources and your knowledge in general, and your full-day active birth workshop, were all experiences I took a HEAP of benefit away from and will continue to use for myself through life, I think. I have been singing your praises and recommending you to anyone who will listen since I started your classes.
Joining your prenatal yoga classes was the best thing I did during my pregnancy! I can’t explain to you how much it helped me to develop a much more positive frame of mind to deal with my many fears around labour and birth. It really made a big difference to my whole pregnancy experience.
Where do we hold our classes?
Classes are currently face to face in Weston, Pearce or Tuggeranong.
Online programmes and zoom classes for Childbirth Education, Baby Massage, Pre and Post Natal Yoga and more are a great way to join in from the comfort of your own home
