Evangeline, herself a devoted and active mom, understands the importance of living a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Cultivating years of education and experience, Evangeline launched Neomama, services to nurture and support new moms and their babies. Let’s face it, all moms deserve to feel fabulous and fit.
Neomama is all about today's new (neo) mama. More than ever before, this generation of moms want to educate and empower themselves to be healthy and balanced. It makes sense. When a women feels her best, she can be at her best for her family and friends. From there this strength and energy ripples out into her community, rooting a brighter and friendlier future for the babies we are raising. Evangeline's specially-designed Neomama services feature pilates, yoga and massage therapy to nourish and care for new moms, moms-to-be, and babies (Infant Massage Workshops coming soon!).
In her ninth year as a certified Pilates instructor, Evangeline has taught Neomama
Mom and Baby Pilates/Yoga/Infant Massage throughout Vancouver, Canada since
2003, and now also teaches Prenatal Pilates. She is also in her eleventh year as a
Registered Massage Practitioner after graduating from the West Coast College of
Massage Therapy. Private pre-and postnatal Pilates/Yoga and Massage Therapy
sessions are available. Please contact
info@neomama.com to inquire about private bookings.
As the founder and former owner of Yaletown Pilates in Vancouver, Evangeline is also very active in her community, donating her expertise to programs like the Tupper High School Young Parent Program, supporting teenage moms to complete their high school diploma. And most recently Evangeline became a Director on board a local non-profit organization called Vancouver Family Roots. VFR will host many an event to support and inspire local families. All proceeds of each event will go to a different family oriented Vancouver charity. Stay tuned for our first event in September 2008.
She currently appears on Namaste, an instructional yoga television series, now airing globally (CHUM network in Canada/FITV in USA). Shot on location amidst Vancouver’s stunning backdrop, the program airs on City TV (Channel 13 in Vancouver) Saturday and Sunday mornings at 6:30 am. Namaste is also available on DVD. www.namaste.tv
