Why Yogabirth?
Pregnancy is the perfect time to discover yoga.
YogaBirth is the union of mind body and breath with preparation for birth and motherhood.
YogaBirth teaching is rooted in the body’s own intelligence and intuition.
My classes invite every woman bringing a new life into the world to connect with her innate wisdom through yoga.

The Studio
Vicky Bryant-Funnell
I have always had an interest in yoga, but only started practising after I became pregnant with my third child. Since then, I have practised yoga on and off, but my interest really grew when the practice of yoga helped me recover from illness and surgery.
As a midwife, I realised that the pregnant women I worked with could greatly benefit from yoga. In order to deepen my own knowledge I sought a pregnancy focussed teacher training course.
I trained with Yogabirth and have had the benefit of learning from the positive, knowledgeable and expert Yogabirth teachers. I also study yoga inspired by the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli and I attend workshops and regular classes from some of the country's leading Scaravelli inspired yoga teachers.
Both Yogabirth and Scaravelli inspired yoga lend themselves beautifully to develop the intelligence and wisdom of the body, and attending classes will support and prepare you for this momentous time in your life. I am also a KGHypnobirthing accredited teacher.
I am now retired from being a midwife after 22 years at a local Hospital Trust, and I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you as you join me on the mat, and take time to make space for yourself and your baby on your exciting journey to new motherhood.

I really enjoyed your yoga classes and I'm very grateful for the knowledge and support that you've shared with me throughout the months.
