    Vera believes that prenatal yoga is a beautiful way for women to connect with their deepest nature—to find the freedom to dance and move through the unique, ever-changing experience of being a woman and a mother. In her prenatal classes, Vera focuses on addressing both physical and mental health challenges during pregnancy, labor, and recovery. She encourages women to explore and trust their bodies while balancing strength-building with relaxation.

    Think of it as a postpartum recovery yoga class as well as a women's circle where we will support your incredible bodies and big tender postpartum hearts. A place where you can be yourself, feel safe and supported no matter where you are physically, mentally and emotionally. We'll focus on carefully rebuilding your strength, pelvic floor health, and posture, as well as addressing the emotional roller coaster and mental well-being through discussion, breath, and meditation. My vision is to create a space where we breathe, stretch, laugh and cry together, and continue to unravel this (sometimes lonely and confusing) motherhood journey in each other's company. Outside in nature as a bonus :)

  • My Favorite Part of the Week

    “I took Vera's Prenatal Yoga from my first trimester to the last week of my pregnancy. It was my favorite part of the week. Now I'm in the Baby and Me park yoga class with my 8-month old and that is my favorite part of the week. Vera is an incredible teacher and support for all things pregnancy and motherhood. I've been so grateful to attend her classes.”

  • Calming Force

    “Vera, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your Sunday classes. They have helped me emotionally, physically, mentally…everything! I appreciate your empathy, care, and patience so much. It really was life changing and such a calming force through my pregnancy. You are amazing.”

    — Sarah G.

  • So Much More than a Yoga Class

    “I could not be more grateful to have found Vera and her prenatal yoga class. Her understanding of the journey of pregnancy and postpartum is amazing and her yoga classes are empowering, thoughtful, challenging; as well as yummily indulgent and relaxing. I tried my best to never miss one! What she offers is so much more than a yoga class: its a community of support, a wealth of doula-knowledge, and so much more. I have so enjoyed Vera every step along the way, from her Sunday Prenatal, to our private yoga sessions postpartum, and her Baby & Me class in the park. Vera is amazing. I cannot say enough good things about her!”

  • Amazed with my Strength

    “My labor team was amazed with my strength and I owe it to Vera’s squat series! I got so much from her class, strength and ability to decipher my different muscles, stamina, breath, and community. I told my labor nurse all about it!”

    - Sophie L.

  • Safe and Intimate

    “Vera’s Baby & Me Yoga Class was such an essential part of my postpartum journey. I struggled to find a parents group on the eastside and Vera’s class came to be exactly what I was looking for - a safe and intimate group for new moms to connect, share and move their bodies with their babies. Vera is so warm, welcoming and knowledgeable, I am so grateful to her for this class!”

    — Jessica S.

  • Big Thank You

    “BIG thank you to Vera and the Silverlake Yoga team! My birth was a smooth and magical experience. I’m convinced a lot of that is due to the mental and physical prep I did in your prenatal classes. The nurses at the hospital were impressed by my breathing techniques and they were amazed at how mobile I was during and post labor—that’s all thanks to you. I can’t thank you enough for your support!”

    - Tara W.

  • Forever Grateful

    “I teared up remembering how much Vera's care and expertise meant to me. She supported me physically, mentally, and emotionally, and helped me navigate the chaos so I could focus on bonding with my daughter. I'll be forever grateful for her guidance and encouragement with breastfeeding in particular. Her compassion and understanding shine through everything she does. She's the best!”

    - Vanessa S.

  • Vera's Presence Soothed Me

    “Words can't describe how much Vera's presence was soothing to me during those first weeks. She was extremely thoughtful, nurturing and caring, and I knew my baby was in the best hands possible when not near me—which was the only way I could sleep! Vera always made sure I was carving out time for myself, for resting, eating/drinking (she is a wonderful cook!), and caring for my body. She always had reassuring answers to all my questions on newborn care, sleep, healing, and mental health, and also provided trusted sources online to refer to when needed. Her energy was positive and calming, which was a gift for us, and we miss her to this day.”
