In the meantime why not try our private lessons tailored specifically to your requirements.

I can't recommend Petra highly enough. My yoga lessons with her were the perfect treat when I was pregnant. All the exercises and breathing techniques she taught were fantastic and helped enormously to ensure a quick and natural birth. She's a great teacher and was very patient with me as a yoga virgin. I don't know what I would have done without her. See more
