Active Birth + Hypnobreathing

A day workshop to prepare for the birth of your baby

March – December 2018 at Triyoga Chelsea

This unique one day workshop for women and their birthing partners is informative, practical and confidence building. Knowledge is power and you will gain a good understanding of how your body works during labour and birth, and how to encourage this innate and evolved process to flow.

Throughout the day, Lolly will draw on her many years as doula, yoga teacher, hypnobirther and childbirth educator. Her wealth of experience will provide you with the tools for working together before and during the birth. Learn how to release tension and fear through education, breathwork, visualisation, movement and massage.

Dear Lolly and Wednesday yoga mummies … just a quick elated text to say that our beautiful baby boy arrived one week early.  Thanks to your amazing yoga classes and Active Birth Workshop it was yoga positions at home from 6am then to the hospital at 12 where my waters broke as we got out of the lift … and then we used breathing all the way through.  It was so great that Jimmy had been on the course and knew what I was trying to do and could help and keep me remembering it as things got more intense.  At 5cms around 7pm I got in the pool and played music and he was born in the water at 10 past 10pm.  It was intense by that point and I saved gas and air for the last hour and a half or so … but the best thing ever.  I cant thank you enough for the help.  I started this journey as someone very scared about the birth and cant believe I managed it! We are totally in love with our little water baby!  Not much sleep since so this message is very rambley but I wanted to pass on the news.  Wishing you all loads of luck and a huge thank you to you Lolly. Olivia, Jimmy and baby James xxxxx  see you at mummy and me classes before too long.x

Hello Lolly,
Lolly this is Mary emailing you. I hope you remember my husband and I the Irish couple that flew especially from Dublin to do your Active Birth/hynpobreathing workshop in November in Chelsea London Triyoga. Well just to let you know we delivered a beautiful healthy alert boy this morning at 9.22 am. Lolly all the knowledge and breathing techiques you taught us which we practice saw me throughout the night as no pain relief was used and a very content baby arrived into this world. Honestly through it all I remembered your words. Just sending you on a email to thank you dearly from Dan and I.

Dear Lolly, 

I just want to thank you for a brilliant and inspiring day on Sunday at triyoga.  When I think about the main take-away of the day, the word that keeps popping up for me is ‘EMPOWERED’.  In addition to all the practical guidance and advice and information, my husband and I both left feeling totally empowered!  The reaction and energy from some people to our intention for a home birth isn’t always positive and it can make a couple feel a bit shaky (what if it does go wrong? what if I can’t do it at home?), but after your workshop we just feel so rooted in our intention and completely capable.  Reading Ina May and all of the other ‘you can do it’ stuff is all very helpful and inspiring, but being offered the practice and the space for dialogue and conversation is integral to affirming that sense of ‘I (we) can do it!”  

We will let you know how it all goes, but in the meantime I will see you in class at Chelsea when I’m able.  

With love and gratitude,
