Hi I'm Toni, I am a fully qualified and experienced senior yoga teacher specialising in Prenatal, Postnatal and Vinyasa Yoga since 2012 and a Tutor on the Yogarise 200hr Teacher Trainings. My passion is to positively support as many women on their journey through pregnancy, birth and beyond. It is such a privilege to bring you a different approach to pregnancy yoga, tools for childbirth, postnatal yoga and to help you adapt your yoga practice to meet your changing needs as a woman with strengthening vinyasa yoga. My aim is to empower women with knowledge, techniques and choices to build confidence, inner strength and trust in our truly amazing bodies with the underlying focus of building strength physically and mentally to enrich the experience of daily activities, whilst having fun and building a safe and supportive local community, we just need to begin where we are right now. It is my greatest wish to see women enjoy how their bodies move, to develop self acceptance and self love, having the energy to be present, to participate in activities they enjoy, to swim, to dance, to run and play with their children, free from discomfort with strong balanced muscles, full of confidence and joy. Expect to receive quality, up to date instruction both online and in person. |
Toni’s classes kept me sane in pregnancy ... so relaxing but still pushed me physically so that I really felt like I had done something good for my body. After my baby was born I really looked forward to the postnatal classes... the SE23 studio has a beautiful setting and music, Toni knows the right level for your body after birth but always pushes you. I loved these classes so much!

SE23 Studio & Garden Postnatal Yoga BOOK HERE TUESDAYS 11.00AM Online Postnatal Yoga BOOK HERE FRIDAYS 11.00AM SE23 Studio & Garden Postnatal Yoga BOOK HERE These classes are sequenced to strengthen and stretch out tension around the neck and shoulders to realign the spine to allow us to breathe more deeply. When we breathe properly, we have much more energy and thats always a bonus. We incorporate breathing techniques to manage those days when we feel low, stressed or anxious whilst strengthening the whole body through a safe flowing Vinyasa-style practice (which the babies find naturally hypnotic and enjoyable), focusing on the pelvic floor and core and always finishing with much-needed relaxation. It’s a wonderful way to connect with other local mothers and babies making lasting new friendships. It is important to rest and bond with your baby until 6 weeks after birth. When you have consulted your doctor and are ready to return to practice. Postnatal classes can be joined with or without baby. Toni can povide group classes for you and your friends or N.C.T group at her private home & garden se23 studio. Maximum of seven mums.

Whilst Toni is alignment focused to protect students from injury she doesnt believe there are any perfect postures and strongly advises we work with our bodies instead of against them.
