No experience needed, come as you are!

If you have never tried a Sound Bath before, here's why you might like one:

✨️ Deep relaxation without having to “do” anything - just lie down and listen
✨️ A calm nervous system reset - feel softer, slower and more grounded
✨️ Ease stress and mental chatter - sound gives your mind something gentle to focus on
✨️Supports better rest and sleep - Great when youre wired, tired, or overstimulated
✨️ A safe way to unwind if meditation feels hard
✨️A moment of stillness in a busy week
✨️ Time to pause, breathe, and be cared for.

Everyone’s experience is different — and all are welcome.

Our next Sound Bath is on Friday 13th February. To book and find all our upcoming dates theres a link in our bio.

Hope to see you soon 🎶
Naomi & Orlando

Chronic tension often comes from a nervous system stuck in 'alert'. Touch and stillness can help the body feel safe again.

Being in nature helps loads too - do you have spaces you go to for calm?

These old hips & pelvis have taken a battering over the years with hard exercise, carrying 3 babies (and children), postnatal pelvic instability, joints slightly over mobile, a spondylolysthesis and head bash diving incident 20 yrs ago that ricocheted down my spine. It all haunts my 49 yr old bones 😂...

I have my go-to glute and deep rotator stretches but have to be careful to stabilise and use the correct muscles as my body is a bit over-stretchy. Im always trying to stengthen the surrounding musculature - quads, glutes, abdos etc and pelvic floor.

Sometimes all I need is a targeted massage to work on trigger points in hard to reach places! Can I work on myself 🤔. NO - oh arse!

If you pelvic, low back or hips pains and it's getting you down, why not try
✨️ Advanced Clinical Massage?

I have many stretch variations for you to take home, as I know these ones aren't accessible for everyone.

If you're shoulders are always tight, it might be a stress response - not just posture & overworked muscles.

Massage helps the nervous system feel safe so that muscles can soften naturally.

When you feel safe, that's when recuperation begins. Exhale.

Hi, I’m Naomi 👋

I’ve spent the last 18+ years supporting people through massage, yoga, sound, and breath — in studios, schools, clinics, and muddy festival fields.

I love...
💃 dancing barefoot at festivals
🥕getting my hands in the soil on my allotment 🐈‍⬛️curling up with cats and
🌊 being outside in nature 🌿

All of this feeds into how I work — grounded, intuitive, and deeply human.

✨️ If you’d like to experience a session with me, or chat about how i can help, you can book via the link in my bio or dm me.

Can’t wait to meet you!

Our Story

Yogababe was set up some 10 years ago as an antidote to my busy working life and stresses of bringing up young children. Yoga continues to help me (and my kids) stay grounded and can be weaved into our rigourous day-to-day lives! I love teaching Yoga as it can be adapted to suit anyone at any stage of life, bring harmony to the body, mind and soul no matter who you are, lifestyle or bodyshape. I aint no instagram yogi - you can’t take pictures of what Yoga feels like within. There is an old quote - someone tell me who said it - ‘if you can breathe, you can do Yoga’. I thoroughly agree.

I taught my first adult classes in January 2008 and became qualified as a British Wheel of Yogi in 2009. I have been teaching regularly since then at gyms, privately, with local and national charities, in the workplace and in schools. Since 2009 I specialized in Yoga for Women’s Health - Pregnancy Yoga, Postnatal Yoga, Yoga to help Fertility and for Womb Health, Hypno-Yoga for birth. I have studied with Uma Dinsmore Tuli, Birthlight, Wendy Teasdill, Janine Hurley, Calm for Kids’, Cherie Lathey and most recently Clare Spink (Fertility Massage).

I passionately offer nurturing one-to-ones and small group classes in all the above and for the promotion of mental health and women’s womb health and fertility. I am fully DBS certified and have undergone Safeguarding training so can also teach in schools and to vulnerable groups. Over the years I have collaborated with various charities/NGOs - including MS Society, MIND, Barnardos, CoastNet - worked in schools with children and teachers, and in workplace settings - Colchester Borough Housing, North East Essex Clinical Commissioning Group - as part of their Wellbeing initiatives.

It is great to practice Yoga to manage stress levels and relax, empower, nurture, strengthen and revitalise you increasing your general mental and physical wellbeing . All my classes combine breathing techniques, posture work and meditations/relaxation (Pranayama, Asana and Yoga Nidra), which are all especially modified from classical yoga practices to suit the person’s needs. Everything is adapted, taking in to consideration your particular stage of life/pregnancy/post natal body and mind and your particular needs (whether you have back pain, pelvic pains or are particularly fatigued or suffer mild depression etc).
