Molly Mchugh · Founder

When I was pregnant, I realised that modern maternity care wasn’t actually preparing women for birth.

As an already qualified yoga instructor, I completed my pregnancy and postnatal specialist training. I have now spent almost a decade working with women through pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

My own labour and birth did not unfold as I had planned. But I’d prepared my internal tools, and that changed everything. My aim is to help women feel genuinely prepared for labour and birth, physically, mentally and emotionally, because your birth experience will stay with you for the rest of your life.

Real women. Real births.

  • “Molly's pregnancy yoga classes were the highlight of my week! I learned how to stay comfortable as my baby got bigger and the preparation we did for birth made me feel so calm and at ease. I'm really looking forward to starting mum and baby classes in a few weeks time!”

    Matilda Cardew

  • “I'd never done yoga before but Molly promised me that wouldn't matter - and it doesn't! I've been having weekly private classes since I was 15 weeks pregnant and I feel so empowered to go into my birth feeling strong and confident. My body was born to do this!”

    Quinn Carter

  • “I've done pregnancy yoga with Molly for both of my pregnancies! We're now into Mum & Baby classes and I can feel that my core is gradually getting stronger again. It's a fantastic way to be able to keep active when your baby is born!”
