BRISTOL'S

 JOEY

Joey is well known in South Bristol for her warm-hearted approach to pregnancy, birth and babies. She is a Yoga Teacher with a wealth of experience, and her passion for empowering women radiates through all her classes and courses. She strives for mothers to make calm, informed, choices for a positive birth experience, and has helped hundreds of mothers-to-be, new mothers and couples with their birthing journeys. 

Joey had baby Iona in Feb 2021 and is back sharing all things motherhood and community. 

IN HER OWN WORDS...

I first fell in love with the playfulness of movement that yoga brings, and later with the sense of empowerment, as the breath draws the mind inward and the rest of the world melts away. 

I went to India to train under the traditional teachings of Ganga Devi at The Himalayan Yoga Institute, and have since returned to complete my Advanced Training.

I am blessed to have found what really nourishes me in life. I feel so inspired when I see people develop intimate and supportive relationships with themselves. 

This led me to complete my pre and post natal yoga training, helping women to find enjoyment in their journey into motherhood. I went on to train in Hypnobirthing, assisting women in experiencing a calm and connected birth, free from fear. I am lucky enough to have trained with Birthlight (perinatal yoga) and KG Hypnobirthing, both Gold standards in their fields. I am passionate about empowering women to reclaim their intuitive connection with their bodies.

I have also trained in Sacred Femininity, Qi Gong, trauma release, massage and healing (Universal Healing Tao – Mantak Chia). I learnt in a creative space on the island of Koh Phangan from some of the world’s leading Taoist teachers.

Forever a student, my current practice is far more gentle than my pre-baby daily rocket practice. A mindful moment while breastfeeding, a stretch while singing to Iona and a dash out the house to catch a class whenever I can. I love creating classes where we don't leave baby in the corner, but engage with baby, as this is how I like to practice with my baby girl, Iona.
