Welcome
With over 10 years of experience teaching prenatal and postnatal yoga, my intention is to hold a safe, supportive, and grounded space for mothers throughout this profound journey.
I continue to study, train, and deepen my own practice so I can show up with presence, care, and clarity, for you. Sharing tools that help you meet pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood with more trust, confidence, and ease. Yoga is more than movement, It’s a way to feel into your own resilience, to soften where you hold tension, and to listen deeply to your body’s wisdom.
Each time a woman shows up for herself on the mat during pregnancy, it’s an act of trust, and I’m honoured to support that.
The Prenatal yoga classes, Birth Preparation course and Postnatal yoga courses are recognised by the health insurance, so you may be eligible to receive part of the cost back from your insurer (Krankenkasse Annerkant).*
*Contributions vary between health insurance companies. Please check with your insurance company for more information about your specific policy.
Prenatal yoga
This practice is thoughtfully designed to support you through every stage of pregnancy. With a focus on nurturing both body and mind, each session helps you prepare for birth, embrace the natural changes of pregnancy, and cultivate trust, confidence, and resilience.
Classes include conscious breathing, gentle stretching, and targeted strengthening, especially for the back and legs. You’ll also learn techniques to release tension and deeply relax. These practices can ease discomfort, improve sleep, reduce stress, and help you feel more connected to your baby.
Prenatal yoga offers a supportive toolkit you can return to whenever you need it most, empowering you throughout pregnancy and beyond.
Recommended from 12 weeks of pregnancy onwards.

Prenatal Yoga & Birth Preparation
6-week course – Closed Group
This 6-week course offers a supportive and structured space to prepare for birth through movement, breath awareness, relaxation, and practical guidance. Practising in a small closed group allows time for connection, continuity, and individual attention throughout the series.
Each session includes gentle prenatal yoga, breathing practices for labour, and guided relaxation, including Yoga Nidra for pregnancy, to help regulate the nervous system and deepen rest during this important time.
During the course you will explore:
- breathing techniques for labour and birth
- birthing positions and the use of movement during labour
- ways to release tension and work with intensity
- mental and emotional preparation for birth
- practical ways your birthing companion can support you before and during labour
- deep relaxation through Yoga Nidra for pregnancy
These practices help you build confidence, trust your body’s intelligence, and develop practical tools you can draw on during labour and birth.
Practising in a closed group also offers space for exchange and connection with other expectant mothers preparing for a similar stage of pregnancy.
Recommended from approximately week 28–32 of pregnancy onwards

- The course takes place with a minimum of 5 participants
- As a closed group, missed sessions cannot be rescheduled

Private Birth Preparation Session for Couples
For you and your birthing companion
Duration: approx. 2.5 hours | Price: CHF 520
This private 2.5-hour session is designed for expectant parents who want to feel more confident, prepared, and connected as they approach birth.
Together, we explore clear and embodied tools to help you feel prepared physically, mentally, and emotionally as you approach labour. The aim is to give you confidence, clarity, and a shared sense of direction as a couple.
This session is ideal for couples who want simple, practical guidance and hands-on tools they can actually use during birth, without needing to commit to a weekly course.
The focus is on essential elements that support labour and strengthen your ability to work together as a team.
In this private setting, we will explore:
- Birthing positions and supportive movement
- Breathing and relaxation techniques to ease tension and intensity
- How your birthing companion can assist you—physically, emotionally, and mindfully—through each phase of labour
- Ways to stay grounded, open, and responsive during the birthing process
- Building trust in your body, your instincts, and your shared ability to meet birth together
This is a hands-on, interactive session where you are guided through practical tools and approaches you can rely on when the time comes.
You leave with greater clarity, a stronger connection as a couple, and a grounded understanding of how to navigate birth together with presence and confidence.

Looking for a Postnatal Course?
This weekly 6 part (7 hours+) course is held in a closed group and has a smaller setting than a regular class, making it semi-private. So mums have space to be comfortable and safe, while receiving more personlised instruction in a cosy environment.
Postnatal Yoga Course
This course has a holistic approach and offers support on a physical, emotional and mental level.
On a physical level, it will help your body recover and regain strength after birth. We will concentrate on the pelvic floor region, abdominal wall, and the upper and lower back.
The curated sequences will help you to release the neck, shoulders and upper back.
On a mental level, postnatal yoga helps you to relax and feel more grounded. On an emotional level, this course will provide you with a safe, kind and open space where you could share your experiences during this early motherhood period if you wish. This will create deeper connections and perhaps even friendships with other mums and babies, adding a valuable and important social element.
Most importantly, this course will help you to come back ‘home’ to your body after pregnancy and childbirth.
The group setting is smaller than a regular yoga class, allowing for more personal attention, tailored alignment, and effective postnatal recovery support.
Booking, Commitment & Drop-ins:
We know how unpredictable life with a baby can be. At the same time, to create a stable, nurturing group and ensure the sustainability of the course, we ask for a full commitment when you sign up.
Full course bookings are open until 72 hours before the first class. After that, remaining spots may be available for drop-in sessions, which must be booked individually and are subject to availability.
• Once booked, the course is non-refundable and non-cancellable. This allows us to keep the group consistent and hold the space for everyone involved.
• If you know in advance that you’ll miss a session, you’re welcome to join another session within the course period (if space allows)
• Drop-ins will be available from 30 August, only if space allows and must be pre-booked.
• A minimum of 4 participants is required for the course to run. If this number isn’t reached, you’ll be notified in advance and receive a full refund.
BABIES ARE MOST WELCOME! (until they start crawling, thanks for your understanding)
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE STUDIO ACCESS IS NOT SUITABLE FOR LARGE PUSHCHAIRS (there is a narrow staircase and no lift. However, if you have a smaller stroller or collapsable one, this can easily be brought inside).
