Nesting Lotus

About us

Welcome to Nesting Lotus, a midwife-led provider of water-based fitness and wellbeing classes across Leicester and Leicestershire. Founded in March 2022 by experienced midwife Lucy, Nesting Lotus was created to support women through pregnancy and postnatal recovery through movement in the water, while also weaving in elements of antenatal education.

 

Our classes combine aquafit, wellbeing, and practical information within a supportive, community-focused environment, helping women stay active, feel informed, and connect with others at a similar stage of life. Since 2022, we have supported hundreds of women through pregnancy, postpartum, and early motherhood.

Our Story

Recognising during my own maternity leave that a vital form of perinatal exercise was missing in Leicestershire, I set out to offer midwife-led aquanatal classes, creating a unique space that combines movement, wellbeing, and trusted guidance.

 

As a mother of two, I found that water-based exercise was something missing from my own pregnancies, which inspired me to develop a supportive environment where women could benefit from the physical and emotional advantages of being in the water. Since 2022, Nesting Lotus has grown to support hundreds of women, and we now host a range of water-based classes across multiple venues, including pregnancy aquanatal, postnatal sessions, and Little Lotus aqua-fit for mums and babies.

Our Nesting Lotus Oasis programme offers a more holistic experience, combining aquanatal sessions, Pilates-based exercises, and guided relaxation to support physical and emotional wellbeing during pregnancy. Alongside the classes, I place a strong emphasis on community and education, weaving in topics that support women through pregnancy and early motherhood.

At Nesting Lotus, I am proud to provide midwife-led care within a supportive and welcoming environment, helping women stay active, feel informed, and connect with others on a similar journey through pregnancy, postnatal recovery, and beyond.
