Pregnancy Circles

It is with so much love and tenderness that we share this news 🤍
After 10 beautiful, transformative years, Yurt in the City will be closing its doors.
A place for healing, connection, circles, sound, stillness, laughter and tears. A space where practitioners found their voice and confidence, and where so many people came exactly as they were and felt met.

Over the years we’ve been held and supported by incredible people and places. Thank you to everyone at The Boneyard, where this dream first took root. To Meanwhile House for the chapters we’ve written within your walls. To every practitioner who has offered their gifts inside the yurt you are the heartbeat of what this space became. And to every single person who stepped through the door for a class, a treatment, a ceremony, a workshop, a conversation you are woven into this story.

With rising rent and increasing business costs, it has simply become unsustainable to continue. This decision has not been made lightly. There is grief here, but also immense gratitude.

We especially want to honour Marcos, our founder and the visionary who brought Yurt in the City into existence. Marcos created more than a physical structure, he created a feeling. A refuge. A place rooted in warmth, inclusivity and possibility. His belief in community, in healing, and in the power of gathering shaped the spirit of the yurt from the very beginning.

After Marcos passed, the loss was deeply felt by so many of us. In the midst of their own profound grief, Abi and Rowan, his wife and son, showed extraordinary generosity. They kindly allowed practitioners to continue holding space in the yurt, keeping its heart beating while they navigated life without him. That gift given during such a tender time is something we will never forget.

Spaces like this don’t really close. They ripple out through the people they’ve touched. They evolve. They seed new beginnings.

Thank you for ten years of magic, courage, community and growth. The canvas may come down, but what was created here will always live on 🤍

When you and your baby are ready and want to leave the house! We have welcomed babies and mothers as early as two weeks after birth💗

This is because the group is designed to make mothers and babies feel at home.

✨️It is a very small group.

✨️The venue is beautiful and totally relaxing. It's an authentic yurt in a room, so the temperature is regulated at all times.

✨️The emotional atmosphere is one of trust and openness, and all experiences are welcome.

✨️It's easy to get there by public transport or car. There is free parking right outside the yurt.

✨️The group is run by a doula who has experience of the postnatal period.

✨️The aim is clear: to make you feel at home in great company!

Join us on Mondays before Christmas or reserve your place for the January group! bookwhen.com/pregnancycircles

With love,

If I could go back in time, I would tell myself:

🧡Listen to yourself. You are everything your baby needs. You are perfect simply because you are this baby's mother.

🧡Do seek information to help you make informed decisions, but don't forget that your intuition is powerful, too.

🧡Don't judge other mothers. There is no one perfect way to be a mother, only many different ways.

🧡Surround yourself with other mothers who are all different, yet each one is unique and special. Create a community and support each other.

🧡Be kind to yourself, just as you would be to a dear friend. Look at yourself with the same love with which your baby looks at you.

✨️Ten years later, I am creating spaces for mothers in early postpartum and reflecting together on those things that all mothers would wish they could say to themselves if they could go back in time.
