ANNA MAUGHAN
She/Her
Anna teaches Pregnancy Yoga with Relaxation and various workshops.
I'm Anna; mum of two boys and an aged cat. I'm your go-to-girl for all things pregnancy, birth and babies - I can (and do) talk about it all day!
From the moment of conception a magical journey begins - of transformation and realignment, and I am here for it. Every person is unique and so is each and every pregnancy, and my goal is to support you in having the most positive experience you can. In my classes you will be encouraged to tune in with your body, and move (or find stillness) in whatever way feels most nourishing for your body and spirit.
MAD Credentials
I'm the face behind the Strong Mother Birthing Company and I pretty much fell head first into teaching yoga after I qualified as a Hypnobirthing Teacher in 2023. I had a tough time in my first birth and suffered with severe postnatal depression as a result. When I fell pregnant again in 2022 I knew I wanted to do all I could to have a far more positive experience this time. I studied hypnobirthing and did a lot of yoga and mindfulness throughout my pregnancy, and I firmly believe that this is the reason I had such an incredible second birth. I now knew what birth could be like and I desperately wanted to give the gift of a positive birth to every pregnant person I came across.
I qualified as a Hypnobirthing Teacher and a Pregnancy Relaxation Specialist with Love Your Birth in 2023, and began teaching Pregnancy Relaxation at Fresh straight away. I quickly went on to study my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training online with Bodsphere and Prenatal Yoga Teacher course with Om Yoga so that I could offer my students a more movement based class.
Anna Loves
When I'm not talking about babies and birth, I can usually be found scrolling instagram, watching Bluey with my kids, or sailing on the Norfolk Broads. I've recently discovered 'Inside Flow' too, which combines music and yoga - a bit like turning yoga into a dance - and am entirely obsessed. One day I'd love to teach it, but I think that's a goal for another day!
Anna’s Well-Being Tips
I'm no wellness guru, but I do believe that most things in life can be solved with some combination of a good cry, a good sleep, and a good dance. And probably a coffee.
