PREGNANCY YOGA
Pregnancy Yoga in London
My pregnancy yoga classes are a space to slow down, connect with your growing baby and prepare for birth in a way that feels good to you.
Each class weaves together gentle yoga, flowing movement, breathwork, birth preparation, vocal sounds and free dance. You’ll learn practical ways to move, breathe and use sound during labour, while giving yourself time to rest, recharge and tune in to your body and your baby.
My approach is relaxed, non dogmatic and welcoming. There’s no need for previous yoga experience, just a willingness to explore what feels right for you. In our softly lit space, with music, warmth and a good dose of humour, we move between learning, sharing, moving and simply being.
More than a yoga class, this is an opportunity to feel more at home in your changing body, build confidence for birth and connect with other women sharing this journey.
Come as you are, move in your own way and leave feeling more grounded, connected and ready for the next chapter.

PRIVATE YOGA CLASSES
I also offer private one-to-one Pregnancy Yoga sessions . This is a great option for mums-to-be who don’t want to practice with an audience, don’t feel prepared to join a public class, or just have no time to go to a studio and prefer the comfort of their own home.
In private yoga sessions you have the chance to ask questions, break down postures and receive truly personalised alignment instructions.One-to-One Sessions can be booked as a one-off class or as part of a regular program and can take place at a venue of your choosing. It can be your home, office, or even your local park (weather permitting). This will save you travel time and hassle, and the relaxation benefits will be maximised.
Each class features sequences of postures (Asanas), breathing (Pranayama) and relaxation techniques to realign, nurture, recharge, balance and invigorate the mind and the body.

Testimonials
“I just wanted to tell you how incredible I think your classes are. I am a Midwife at King’s Hospital, and before I attended your classes I was finding it difficult to allow time to care for myself and connect to my pregnancy. However from the first session I attended I immediately felt grounded, centred and at peace. I have a natural tendency and interest in meditation and nature which I found useful to practice with an App through my pregnancy, but your classes took this to another level for me. I felt there was such a nice balance of talking / meditation / breathing exercises and movement. After each class I felt rejuvenated, centred as one with my body and my baby. I ahh’d ooo’d and shhh’d my way through labour just like you had shown us, that alone got me through the hardest parts. I look back on my labour as one of the most intense but spiritual and wonderful experiences of my life and a lot of this is down to your classes” – Vicky
“I just wanted to thank you for your classes – particularly the couples yoga class. I came to your class at the Shala quite frequently throughout my pregnancy, as well as practicing daily yoga at home, and I’m sure yoga was the main reason I had a simple pregnancy and a labour for which I needed no pain relief, despite it lasting 35 hours. Baby Ramona was born on 30/11 weighing 8lb 9 oz and we are both very grateful to you.” – Vicky
“I went to Alexa’s classes from the middle of my pregnancy and with my son after he was born. Both Pregnancy and the Baby + Mums classes have helped me feel good in my body, connect with my child and meet other mums. I also did a hypnobirthing workshop with my partner which allowed us to feel ready and confident about the birth. Alexa brings so much kindness and warm, positive energy. I feel grateful for her classes and recommend them strongly.” – Pauline
