# Yogabirth with Lianna

Yogabirth with Lianna offers specialist pregnancy yoga and hypnobirthing classes for expectant mothers across Heathfield and East Sussex. The business combines gentle, pregnancy-specific movement with evidence-based relaxation techniques designed to help women approach labour with confidence and physical readiness.

Founded by Lianna, an award-winning midwife with over 20 years' clinical experience supporting women through pregnancy and birth in Sussex and Kent, the business stands apart through its grounding in real midwifery practice. Rather than generic yoga instruction, Lianna draws on two decades of facilitating births in homes and birthing centres, understanding intimately how movement and hypnobirthing techniques genuinely transform the labour experience.

The teaching addresses the physical and emotional demands of pregnancy—from easing aches and strengthening the body for birth, to managing the anxiety and tension that often accompany uncertainty about labour. Classes focus on breathing techniques, relaxation practices, and body awareness to reduce stress hormones and build trust in the body's natural birthing capabilities.

Whether clients are first-time mothers or experienced birthers seeking deeper preparation, Yogabirth with Lianna provides tailored support through group classes, one-to-one sessions, and immersive retreats. This personalised approach, combined with Lianna's clinical credibility and genuine passion for empowering women through birth, creates a trusted, evidence-informed alternative to standard antenatal care.
