Hi!
I’m Kate - mum of 2, yoga teacher, core and pelvic floor specialist. My mission is to get women feeling great in their own body, no matter what stage of life: pregnancy, postnatal, menopausal or anywhere in between.
As a yoga teacher and core and pelvic floor trainer, I love blending these disciplines together as part of a holistic model of care. The breath, core and pelvic floor work together for optimal health.
Yoga increases strength and flexibility, and improves posture and balance. The breath can help restore core function - as you inhale diaphragmatically, the pelvic floor muscles naturally lengthen out and down, and poses like child’s pose can also relieve tightness.
Yoga improves the mind-body connection and decreases our fight-flight response; the pelvic floor responds best when the nervous system is balanced and we are calm.
I teach friendly, relaxed classes that bring women together to enhance wellness and build a supportive community, with a strong focus on core and pelvic floor rehabilitation.
Restore the Pelvic Floor
1 in 4 of us will get leaking and pain but this is not the price you pay for becoming a mum or indeed being a woman.
Do NOT put up with leaking, pain, heaviness, constipation or haemorrhoids.
Pelvic floor dysfunction though common is not normal, it is treatable and preventable with the right help.
Work with me using a full body, holistic foot-first approach. Tailored, person-centred, holistic lessons designed specifically to your symptoms, needs and goals.
Diastasis Recti
The Breathe Principle™ is a 7-Step Plan to follow to help you fix your diastasis recti. It is not a 'spot fix'
because assessing, treating and rehabilitating a new mum for abdominal separation needs to move away just doing tummy exercises.
It needs a broader, full-body approach to get your system working and functioning in a more optimal way.
My 7 Steps to Fixing Abdominal Separation method is based on a whole-body, ‘everything working as one’, proper unit-type system....
....that gets results!

Private 1:1 Sessions
You can pick and choose the time to suit your schedule.
You can practice in the comfort of your home.
You decide what the focus of the class will be- be it a pose you want to achieve (ie.headstand) or a body part to focus on (ie. Upper body) or just focus on relaxation, meditation and breathwork.
You can work on your confidence with the poses before joining a group class.
You can get very tailored adjustments and tweaks to ensure you do not harm yourself and are properly aligned throughout.
