Hola! My name is Josefina Eliggi, I’m an Argentinian yoga teacher (RYT 200+) based in Zurich, and I specialise in yoga for before, after and beyond birth.
Yoga was a fundamental tool in healing my difficult birthing experience after becoming a mother for the first time in 2015.
I’m passionate about helping women rediscover themselves in their new role as mothers while continuing to pursue their goals and aspirations.

What my clients are saying about the classes
“I started the Prenatal Yoga classes with Josefina already in my 14th week of pregnancy. It was my first time doing Yoga at all. The classes helped me a lot focussing on my body, training and relaxing the parts that were important during the pregnancy and as a preparation for giving birth. As my belly got bigger they helped me managing back pain and tensions. I absolutely loved working with Josefina. She always asked if I had any health issues and adapted her classes if I struggled with any kind of problems. She is such a warm hearted person and a great Yoga teacher. I will definitely continue doing Yoga since I know now how good it is for my body and mind. Go sing up for her classes! Even if you feel healthy, Josefina’s classes will make you feel even better”.
“Josefina is very competent. Her instructions are careful and precise. She has a good eye and knowledge of the body. Her classes are balanced, well prepared, designed to get the best result and have a holistic approach. Before the Prenatal Yoga classes, she was in good general condition, but the stress was building up daily.
When I started attending her classes I experienced relief from back pain, greater general relaxation, more positive thoughts about birth and pregnancy, more freedom to move and the feeling that my body is still my body to move and use despite being pregnant. I am currently going through the last weeks of my pregnancy. I know that I can ease the pain if I give myself the time and space to step back and do it. My confidence in my own strength has increased.
I have been able to practice different movements and positions, as well as strengthen my thoughts about growing of life and giving birth. I feel that intuitively this will help me during birth as the positions are already familiar and you learn to listen to your body. Pregnant women should definitely try her classes”.
“As the time of my pregnancy was getting emotionally and physically more and more challenging, Josefina’s yoga lesson became the indispensable ’island of peace’ during my week. She provided the much needed time and techniques to connect with my body and the baby. Though giving space to our various individual moods and needs, she managed to bring the class together in a calm and focused atmosphere. Josefina is very down to earth and makes yoga feel accessible to everyone – which is crucial, when your body is going through so much change! She leads you through the exercises with clarity, but leaves room for finding your own way into yoga. This truly turned out to be just what I needed to help me get ready for my second baby. Thank you, Josefina!”.
“Josefina’s prenatal yoga classes offered me the much needed opportunity to calm down in the midst of busy everyday routines, to connect with my pregnancy and the baby.
Combining experience and empathy, Josefina made the yoga classes a safe space to practice yoga in a soft and playful way – and to continually discover the changes within my pregnant body. She helped me to build up trust and confidence in my body and to get ready for birth – physically, mentally as well as emotionally. Thank you, Josefina, for your support throughout this journey!”.
“Mit Josefina im Prenatalyoga habe ich nochmal umso mehr gelernt auf meinen Körper und das was sich gut anfühlt zuhören. Ich bin mehr bei mir und dem Baby und nicht so fixiert darauf die Übungen perfekt auszuführen. Der Yogaunterricht mit ihr ist sehr persönlich, dadurch ist die Atmosphäre sehr entspannt. Die zeitliche und finanzielle Investition lohnt sich. Im stressigen Alltag werden sowohl Körper, als auch Geist es dir danken!”.
