The Birth Recovery Coach
Your postnatal exercise specialist helping you THRIVE as a new Mum, not just survive!
Hello and a very warm welcome to my website! My name is Lucy, and I am a coach for Mamas, a Matrescence Activist and a Mama.
I specialise in pregnancy and postnatal wellbeing; using a combination of coaching, exercise and/or yoga tuition and massage therapy to help you thrive in motherhood not just survive. — I also use the divine art of infant massage for mums, dads, partners or older siblings to help bond with and warmly welcome the new family member.
I'm based in Caversham, Reading, UK and I offer both 1:1 and small group coaching sessions in person or online. I also teach classes online and in the Reading area.
ABOUT
I help mums of little ones become resilient and strong in mind and body.
I am a Birth Recovery Coach because I am passionate about helping women heal and thrive, physically and emotionally after birth. Whether your birth experience was super tough or not, pregnancy, labour and the transition into motherhood (matrescence) is a BIG thing to go through and we certainly need to take care of our changed body — and entire being — once baby/babies arrive.
I am a mama mentor and coach, pregnancy and postnatal exercise specialist and have been working in movement, the body and wellbeing for almost 20 years. After University, I started working as a dance teacher at a top London gym, then added more strings to my bow; by becoming a studio instructor, a personal trainer, and then I qualified as a yoga teacher, baby massage instructor and most recently a matrescence activist.
I am very passionate about mental health as well as looking after the body, and enjoying the body for all that it is capable of. My style of movement teaching helps to stretch, gently strengthen and release — always with an awareness of the breath — therefore reducing tension and improving posture.

Notes of gratitude...
"Your class was exactly what I needed last night. Don't know if this sounds weird but I just felt very safe and secure, it was lovely. Something about the way you teach."
NAOMI D
"Thank you for being understanding, listening, honestly sharing your experience (in a non-triggering way) and for raising awareness of postnatal health issues. You were a lifeline when I felt confused, really sad and I had limited support so thank you for being someone I could trust and open up to."
ROSIE
"My best result from working with Lucy? Self belief! The faith Lucy had in me that I could achieve has given me the self belief that I can and I am. I can’t recommend Lucy enough, she has shown me that I can."
