Spreading the joyful spiral of wellbeing

Joyful babies was created by Sally Lomas to offer yoga classes in Cambridge, providing exceptional quality of teaching in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

About Us

Enormous difference to my pregnancy

“Sally is a truly inspirational antenatal yoga teacher who has made an enormous difference to my pregnancy. Her approach is incredibly holistic, preparing the mother not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. Her classes include yoga moves, breathing techniques to help with labour, good birth positions, time for meeting other mothers and much much more. She teaches with humour and from the heart. It is obvious that she uses her own experience and that of teaching pregnant women over the years to enrich each class. Many of us speak of coming out of class feeling so much more energised, however difficult our day or week has been. I would describe my class as a sacrosanct two hours in the week when I can escape work/ home/ family for two hours and really connect with my bump. The very high return rate to Sally’s classes is a further testament to her skills. I hope that she can be recognised for her amazing work as she not only teaches her class but trains others as well.”

Inspirational sessions

“The course exceeded our expectations! We both feel very well equipped to go into birth in a positive way and feel excited about getting things started and going through the experience as a couple. We found the sessions inspirational and an opportunity to explore our emotions around becoming parents.

Becky and Sally were fantastic, encouraging, fun and full of useful information. We felt very fortunate to have received some of their wisdoms! We look forward to seeing you both once the babies are in town.”

Positive birth experience

"Thanks to the yoga classes and workshops we were able to plan and have the active / natural birth we wanted!

I stayed active and gave birth on my knees, my partner knew exactly what I was doing so was able to help and support me as needed.

I can’t thank you enough for giving us the tools to have this positive birth experience."

Classes helped my children be calmer, happier babies

“Birthlight was an amazing opportunity for me to be in a room with first-time mums as nervous as me. Not only was the ante-natal yoga a chance to relax, but a discussion forum on everything imaginable, from current worries about pregnancy to questions and concerns about the actual birth. This, supplemented with aqua-natal, pure luxury time for mum and bump in the water, made my pregnancies comfortable and relaxing. I made many very close friends through Birthlight. Even after our babies were born, we carried on with baby and post-natal yoga and swimming. Now a mother of two, I am absolutely convinced the classes helped my children be calmer, happier babies. Thank you to Sally and all her colleagues for offering these invaluable classes.”

I appreciate it more than I can say

“I want to thank you (Julia) so much for the help you gave in those last few weeks and for labour itself. The classes helped me from going mad in those overdue weeks, and your gentle advice was crucial in enabling me to get through every contraction, breathe through and let each one go. I truly did not know my body could do that but I didn’t need any drugs apart from gas and air from stitches. I wanted to give the baby the most natural journey into the world, and give us the best chance of bonding and feeding. It is still incredible to me that this was possible. So I want you to know I appreciate it more than I can say.”

Most memorable and special class

"Without doubt the baby massage and baby yoga with Bryony was the most memorable and special class I did during maternity leave. Highly recommended. You don’t have to be “into” yoga to enjoy this!"

Highlight of my week

“The baby yoga classes were the highlight of my week, I felt relaxed and nurtured. I made new friends and we still all meet up a year later. I am sure my baby Matthew benefited form the yoga, I look back on that special time together and treasure the memories.”

Baby Yoga is one of the most precious gifts in the world

“I used all of my yogic knowledge and sensitivity and did not realise until today just what I was taught at Birthlight by yourself (Melanie) and Sally. I think BY is one of the most precious gifts in the world! To change a mother’s experience, the scope is just WOW, but to be a small seed within that journey … I sleep peacefully and thank you for your passed down knowledge.”

Feeling ready for the birth

“The Birthlight Ante Natal classes helped us by providing factual information and advice in a structured but informal environment. We were supported to reach properly informed decisions about our preferences for birth. This undoubtedly helped us feel ready for the birth, and as a result of being relaxed and at ease, we are convinced that this helped us in the delivery as well.”

Wholeheartedly recommend both classes

"I did Bryony's baby massage and baby yoga classes with my first baby and am now back with my second! She's a wonderful teacher with a very calming and relaxing presence, and I love that her classes involve yoga for the parent as well as the child. I would wholeheartedly recommend both classes, they're a lovely thing to do with your baby."
