Community. Self-love. bodily autonomy.

 

I offer you soul-soothing, authentic, and intuitive yoga classes while holding space for you to trust your power and find your way into more conscious movements and self-love. As a birthkeeper and doula, I am here to witness you in your pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood and support you in your power and autonomy.

 

Holding space for you is what I deeply love, and am grateful for. I share with an open heart embracing all that is you and aim to make you feel welcome exactly where you are in your self-practice journey. To me, yoga is about being curious, kind-hearted, and gentle towards yourself and others, being autonomous in all that is you, and growing in the space of community.

I am passionate about women’s health and the transformative transition into motherhood. I offer courses, classes, and community circles to embrace our sovereignty in all stages of women’s lives. I believe that we should have the option to make well-informed decisions in life, especially when it comes to pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. For the information about our choices to be available to us, we do need to have a more transparent system that honours every individual woman and HER choices. I’m here to share knowledge and resources with you so that you know your rights as a birthing woman.

I have worked with pregnant women since 2017 and published two research papers on the topic of emotional pregnancy. I’ve taught prenatal yoga teacher trainings supporting women in supporting other women going through this intense rite of passage of pregnancy and childbirth. I work as a Birth Keeper (Doula) in Copenhagen and I love being a witness to this beautiful, intense, spiritual rite of passage. I constantly research, read, learn, and take courses within the field of women’s health, pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
