Bump by Kate Evans
​I was really lucky to be recommended this book by my midwife friend. Bump is very entertaining and is chocked full of great information about preconception, pregnancy and birth.  I am looking forward to reading Kate's other book on Breastfeeding in the near future.
​Have you read It?

I am going to be offering a pregnancy package from the end of March this year. My latest training is adding Pre and post natal Pilates and Advanced CPD in Modern Pregnancy Functional Exercise Programming & Birth Preparation to my skills. I will be delivering classes in Butcombe at the Village Hall.  I will add more details shortly - please contact me if you are interested in attending a class.

Wow its halfway through the month already and it seems to have taken longer than usual to get back into routine.... I have to say I love holiday time when all routine goes out of the window and I love getting back into routine too.
​So back into work - Pilates lessons resumed at 'The Village Hall' with new and exciting courses booked for Pregnancy Pilates and Prenatal and Postnatal nutrition too - I hope to be offering classes by the beginning of Spring. My first KG Hypnobirthing couple are due any day ...so I am looking forward to hearing all about their experience and last week a great result for a client who is now pregnant naturally at 40 with her first child. A good start to 2016 workwise - long may it continue :)

I am very excited that I have found a workshop for Spinning Babies in the UK. I recently came across Spinning Babies whilst browsing different articles about pregnancy exercise for an advanced pregnancy course that I am currently studying. The content is so good I had to share....
So what is Spinning Babies?
Spinning Babies is a project of Gail Tully who is a midwife from Minneapolis in USA. It promotes positive principles to prepare for and progress through childbirth. The Spinning Babies website is a really great resource for couples and anyone else who is involved in pregnancy/birth to access some lovely gentle and powerful exercises.  Here is a link to the website which is packed with information http://spinningbabies.com/start/

The workshop in Birmingham is on 22nd April 2016 - and is being run by isabelle@haptonomy.co.uk
