Belinda Jobst
Belinda qualified as a midwife in 1979 having already completed a training in general nursing. She became passionately interested in the way babies are born, how invasive the hospital environment is at times and how this affects the birth outcome. She worked as a community midwife in London and Oxford with responsibility for births both in hospital and at home.
Her desire to help women have a positive birth experience led her to explore ways that would prepare mothers-to-be for a natural birth. She trained as an Active Birth teacher at the International Centre for Active Birth in London in 1989. This training centered on yoga-based exercise for women and preparation for natural birth. This is when her involvement with yoga started and it has become a central focus in her life. She taught yoga to ante-natal and post-natal women in Glasgow where she lived for 5 years.
She lives in Hereford with her husband and 4 children where she is continuing to explore and develop her yoga practice. She regularly teaches yoga at Greencuisine
