👋🏻 Hi everyone! 👋🏻

With classes paused this week for half term I thought just say a little hi and reintroduce myself!

I started Calm Beginnings 3 years ago whilst working as a nurse in the NHS. I spent 10 years working clinically in neurosciences, NICU and then 3 years working in the community with new mums.

I only started practicing yoga 4 years ago but quickly fell in love with it and am still learning and developing my practice everyday. I wanted to share this passion with new mums so started teacher training and Calm Beginnings.

I have since gone on to train in different styles of yoga, baby massage and have tried to develop classes which are fun, accessible and with a sense of community. I left working for the NHS a year ago and it was the best decision I have made.

With my classes there is never any expectation to be great at yoga, I will always try to offer alternatives and work with you to help develop your own practice but ultimately I want you to feel relaxed, have fun and enjoy yourself.

I teach a range of classes throughout the week and offer special events and new for 2026 will be the first Calm Beginnings day retreat!

Love lizzie 💙

After a few changes and teething issues with this Birth Workshop I am so pleased that we managed to go ahead and had a wonderful morning!

A relaxed and informative chance to learn about birth, discuss your thoughts and feelings and enjoy some yummy food!

At this workshop we also made our own room sprays perfect for hospital rooms and a short yoga practice designed for use in labour! 💙

🎃 It’s been the most fun week of halloween inspired classes! We have been little spiders, haunted houses and broken dancers and we have sang lots of spooky songs! 🎃

Our little babies have dressed up in the cutest ghosts, pumpkins, fairies and even pumpkin spiced lattes outfits! 😆
