VALERIE MAY YOGA

Pregnancy, postnatal & mummy / baby yoga classes

What Valerie May Yoga says

I feel strongly about the benefits of yoga for everyone & every body. I aim to provide a friendly, welcoming environment where you will feel safe & comfortable. My teaching style is fun, lighthearted & accessible but at the same time delivering the key messages of a yoga practice. My classes allow you to soothe, relax, rejuvenate, energise & calm the mind body, assisting you in rebalancing should you have a stressful non-stop lifestyle. I have a particular interest and speciality in teaching pregnancy and post-natal yoga of nearly 7 years experience. I have a strong reputation in the Chislehurst/ Bromley and Sidcup area with many clients returning with 2nd and 3rd pregnancies and babies. Having given birth and now being a mother to two small people, I am perfectly placed to support mamas-to-be and new mamas during this precious time. I vividly remember all the feelings, aches, pains, anticipation, joy and wonder of pregnancy and early motherhood! Hence why I absolutely love teaching these classes, guiding beautiful expectant and new mamas through this journey.

About

I am yoga and meditation teacher and have been practising yoga for 20 years. Started practicing with the aim of helping a chronic back injury. I found that yoga cured this & increased my flexibility, stamina & fitness. At the time I worked as a Chartered Accountant and Tax Adviser working long hours in often stressful environments and deadlines. Yoga also had the unexpected benefit of dramatically reducing the anxiety levels that I was experiencing in my working life. I fell in love with the practice and could not wait to go to class each week! After starting my family I decided to turn my passion for the practice I made the decision to deepen my knowledge and decided to follow a career in teaching yoga full time. I have a teaching training qualification and an additional pre and postnatal and baby yoga teacher training. I am currently further deepening my knowledge in taking more intensive training in baby yoga, baby massage and developmental play plus in infant health. And also taking CPD training in birth preparation.
