Petra Yoga

Petra Yoga is a yoga studio in London where Petra teaches most of the classes described. Pregnancy yoga is the most recurring theme: weekly classes through the second and third trimesters, with breathing, visualisation and positions for labour, and a birth preparation session that partners were invited to. The classes help people feel prepared and grounded for birth. Petra also runs workshops on spinal health and backbends using a new yoga wall, which build step by step and explain the mechanics behind each posture. Corporate groups have sessions in their office too, and she adapts each flow to the group. Petra is described as patient, kind and knowledgeable in Iyengar yoga, in a studio with a relaxed, garden-like feel.

  My wife 's pregnancy yoga sessions with Petra gave her and I so much confidence for our the birth of our first child. I could see her confidence grow with every week which was lovely to see and I am very grateful to Petra for that. The specific birth preparation session that I was invited to along with my wife was invaluable and I learnt how to support Emma with breathing positions and supportive massage. I used all of these techniques during her labour and was able to help keep my wife on track and grounded throughout.

  I have been going to Petras pregnancy yoga since I was 14 weeks pregnant and it has honestly been the one thing that has had the biggest influence on both my pregnancy and my birth story (which was very positive). Petra is an amazing instructor and the class she has put together helps you prepare for labour and birth with breathing exercises, visualisations, key positions for both labour, birth and post birth and something I found so useful was talking through other people's real birth stories. Additionally, my husband and I took her birth preparation class where Petra showed him what we had been working on in class and what he could expect during labour and how best to support me. He felt a lot more confident after this class and was everything I could have asked for in a birthing partner. THANK YOU PETRA!
