Welcome

Hello, I’m Coralie

I’m a registered midwife with years of experience supporting women through pregnancy and birth, and I’m also a qualified hypnobirthing teacher, a yoga and pregnancy yoga teacher, and trained in foundational Compassion Focused Therapy. Over the years I’ve realised that preparing for birth is only one part of the journey — the greater transition is becoming a mother. I created Pause & Prepare so women have a space to slow down, reflect, move and connect, and build real confidence before meeting their baby.

My classes are gentle, evidence-based and designed for all stages of pregnancy — whether you are brand new to yoga or have practised for years. Every session is a chance to Pause and Prepare, to feel stronger, calmer and more connected to your baby.

What makes Pause & Prepare different

Many antenatal courses teach labour.

Pause & Prepare prepares you.

My unique approach combines:

  • Evidence-based midwifery knowledge
  • Calm breathing and relaxation techniques
  • Pregnancy-safe yoga and movement
  • Mindfulness and relaxation
  • Compassion-focused practices
  • Reflection and connection with other women

Together these create space to build confidence, resilience and self-compassion before motherhood begins.

Pause.

Because you deserve space to breathe.

Prepare.

Because motherhood deserves more than a checklist.

Become.

Because preparing for motherhood is also preparing for yourself.

Take a breath. You’re doing beautifully.
