Sara Barker – Mama Flow

Sara is the fantastic! She's so attentive and really listens to you and your body. I don't know how I would have got through my pregnancy without her treatments, she has magic hands! She also provides a warm and inviting space for expectant mothers at her yoga class, which I have enjoyed very much. I am looking forward to starting baby yoga with her in the near future.

Sara is a spirited, generous and warm-hearted person, who lives and breathes empowered birthing and motherhood. I first came along to Sara's Women and Pregnancy yoga circle where I was welcomed like an old friend and quickly felt at ease. Sara sessions provide a perfect mix of physical exploration and challenge- with adaptations tailored to everyone present- and tuned in emotional self-care and visualisations. Sara is sensitive to the shifting emotional and physical needs of others and ensures everyone feels comfortable and safe in the space. After some reflection, I decided to sign up for Sara’s “Birthing Weekend”. This was a big undertaking for my partner and I as we are not very wealthy and needed to choose between either this workshop or one of the more established NCT trainings. We were drawn to Sara’s offering due to its emphasis on practical tools and strategies for managing the emotional and physical demands of childbirth. We weren’t disappointed. Sara restricted the workshop to 3 couples and was able to tailor her informative and yet informal sessions to the differing levels of knowledge and experience in the room. The sessions were pragmatic, and partner focussed- we really came away with the knowledge that birth was an experience we were embracing as a couple rather than “women’s work”. It was a really enjoyable weekend with humour peppered throughout, however this did not detract from the vast knowledge and wisdom imparted- both in sessions and through online resources shared after. We came away feeling more confident in the process, and in our ability to remain mindful and calm throughout. Thank you, Sara!

Sara's pregnancy yoga was a very healing space for me to come to terms with motherhood. Her mum and baby classes were hands down the best class I went to with a small baby, part yoga for you, part yoga and activities and songs for your little one. Most importantly, what Sara has established goes far beyond a paid for class. The community she has curated is beautiful and I've made some of my best "mum" friends through her careful mummy matchmaking and just chatting to those next to me. I'm just sad I had an early mover as I'd have loved to have carried in going for longer! I'd you're in doubt, go, you won't regret it.

By trade, I'm a workshop facilitator, so I went to every baby thing going, kind of out of curiosity to see what's out there, and in my humble opinion, Sara’s post natal yoga is just the best thing. There’s something for mums, something for the babies, lovely, gentle, freeing. I felt really taken care of at a fragile time. I really do think it’s the absolute best thing to be doing in the early days of motherhood - I wish I'd found her sooner!

Such lovely, warm and supportive yoga sessions! It didn’t matter that I was completely new to yoga. And my daughter loved it too!

Learning about Mama Flow has been one of the most reassuring and supportive things that had happened to me during my pregnancy. Sara had created a nurturing community who are all going through the same thing at the same time. Not only is it a space to do yoga, it's a space to talk about insomnia, scans and how to belly wrap. Sara is bubbly, welcoming and highly knowledgeable. She takes the time to get to know everyone in her yoga circle and makes a special effort to look after everyone's needs. I have been lucky enough to do pregnancy yoga, women's yoga, a birth preparation class and a treatment with Sara. All come highly recommended. I'm looking forward to continuing my journey with Sara after baby comes at her baby yoga classes. If you're looking for a nurturing space to laugh, learn and stretch, this is it!

Simply wonderful. Chilled beyond measure, warm and peaceful atmosphere, differentiated movements to suit all…a weekly highlight. Sara is lush! Can’t recommend enough.

Sara B makes motherhood just that little bit magical. From amazing treatments to pregnancy and baby yoga, her huge knowledge of everything pregnancy, birth and postnatal shines through all she does.

Highly recommend Sara's pregnancy and baby yoga classes, as well as her superb bodywork treatments. Sara is extremely knowledgeable, experienced and brings a her warm and therapeutic approach to every setting.
