about us

Picture
Nascent Wellness in Coorparoo has been created by our young family, for young families. Couple PJ & Mauricio birthed their first baby into the beginning of the Covid pandemic in 2020 and navigated new parenthood wishing for something a little more. With nearly all face-to-face training, workshops and classes for pregnancy and postpartum, they missed out on many of the things they had hoped for in this brand new world. In welcoming their new one they hoped for more connection, more health, more friendship and more evidenced based care. Through many conversations over many years they decided to branch out and form Nascent - a way to bring Brisbane's best prenatal, postnatal and child health specialists together in a way that provides true support.

Throughout their careers both have specialised in yoga, wellness, events and fostering connection. Find out more about them below.

PJ Wells
Coming from previous careers in HR and dietetics, PJ obtained a Bachelor of Business in 2008 and studied Nutrition and Dietetics from 2010 (both at QUT) before completing her first 350hr Yoga Teacher Training in 2011 and then founding one of Brisbane's most popular yoga studios Stretch Yoga in 2014 with two beautiful locations in the Brisbane CBD and Holland Park.

With her physiotherapist partner Mauricio Bara she then founded Articulate Physiotherapy in 2019 and through both businesses developed a love and passion for working with women and families in the pre and postnatal period. After welcoming their first child together Otis in July 2020, PJ decided to develop her love of building connection and supporting families by opening Nascent Wellness in late 2021. She truly understands the juggle of motherhood and career, especially after navigating a newborn and a pandemic simultaneously. She is also a proud stepmother to a beautiful little girl, and loves seeing the sibling bond develop between her two children.

PJ is now a senior yoga teacher (RYT 1000hr) with 11 years teaching experience including leading Teacher Trainings, a certified mat Pilates teacher and has studied breastfeeding and infant sleep including the NDC Model (Neurodevelopmental Care) with Possums for Families and Pre and Post Natal Yoga through Baby Bliss Yoga. After navigating pregnancy and post partum through Covid she is passionate about providing connection for new mothers through this challenging period. She lives in Teneriffe and loves nothing more than walking along the river with her family.
