An absolutely beautiful day on the birthing retreat, in tranquil, peaceful surroundings in the Surrey hills. Marie and Chloe took such good care of us all and every gentle activity was fantastic. Delicious home prepared nourishing lunch by Maria, see pic. Plus she indulged us in afternoon lemon drizzle cake, granola biscuits, cacao energy balls, herbal teas! Flowing lemon and mint water kept us hydrated on the hottest day of the year! We were cool, refreshed and relaxed. Lots of psychoeducation and discussion, tips and a chance to ask any questions. Yoga and relaxation, plus a creativity session. I recommend completely! Such a lovely treat and so nurturing! 🙌🏼

Maria’s confident birthing retreat was genuinely divine. Maria created a beautiful space and I felt so welcome and completely in the right space and place at exactly the right time. The day ‘flowed’ in a way that I lost sense of time and just felt completely captivated by the stories of other women, the insightful and empowering knowledge shared by Maria and Chloe and the incredible pregnancy yoga of course. I’m 29 weeks pregnant with my second baby and learned so much during this retreat. Being in the presence of such inspiring women was just what I needed and I felt so grounded and connected. Women authentically hearing and supporting other women. Maria and Chloe, I hope you realise just how special what you are offering is ❤️ Thank you, Rae.

I went to Maria's pregnancy yoga classes at the end of my pregnancy and they honestly just made such a difference to how I felt mentally and physically. I also attended the most beautiful pregnancy retreat which celebrated my pregnancy. Yoga with Maria, hypnobirthing with homebirth midwife Chloe in a beautiful setting with great food. Pregnant ladies you are missing out if you aren't booked into Maria's yoga classes or retreats!
Maria is the most kindest soul who really invests her time and energy into you. She really does care. Thank you for everything!

Maria is absolutely amazing! I attended her pre natal yoga classes from 18 weeks of pregnancy which massively helped my body and also my mindset.

I also attended her positive birthing retreat which gave me a lot of information around what to expect and what is possible which helped me to advocate for myself and what I wanted and needed at the birth of my baby.

Meeting Maria completely changed my pregnancy experience and helped me feel prepared. She genuinely cares and is an incredible person.

Today marks the end of my motherhood yoga journey and what an incredible journey it was! Starting with pregnancy yoga, Maria’s classes supported me in a way that no one else could. Preparing me mentally and physically for birth, giving me the strength and confidence I needed to bring my baby boy into the world.

I continued the journey with mother and baby yoga circle and it was the most wholesome experience. Watching the babies grow and the mummas thrive, has been nothing short of amazing. If it wasn’t for little man being on the move and causing havoc in class, we wouldn’t leave 😂 Wish we could do it all over ❤️ Thank you for everything Maria. If I’m blessed with another child, I know exactly who I’m coming to.

Couldn’t recommend Maria’s classes enough. If you’re pregnant or have recently given birth, this is your sign to book a class! You won’t regret it.

I attended Maria’s yoga classes during the third trimester of my pregnancy. I found the classes perfect, Maria gave adaptions depending on everyone’s stage and comfort levels, and checked in with everyone about how they were feeling before and after class. I found Maria such a calming presence and felt she was a supportive and encouraging teacher. Maria’s classes instantly felt like a safe space where I could wobble without a worry.

I booked Maria's confident birth retreat and I am very happy I did. Both her and Chloe are so knowledgeable and can put your mind at ease with the so many questions that go through your mind related to birth. Plus it is amazing to be surrounded by other pregnant ladies and be in that feminine energy. I went with so many doubts as I want to have a VBAC and I hoped that I will find some answers in this retreat and I was not wrong! I found my answers and more. I also loved the location! I recommend with all my heart.

I attended Maria’s motherhood retreat and it was fantastic. A perfect day away from children to relax, move your body, and connect with the emotions and transition of becoming a mother. A day in nature surrounded by a community of amazing women is something you don’t often find in today’s society. Maria holds such a safe space and the home made food she prepare is not only nourishing, it’s delicious!. Plus a lovely goodie bag of things you actually want. I couldn’t recommend her offerings more. Thank you 🙏
