Petula is a certified teacher in vinyasa yoga, Yoga Tune Up®, and the art of Budokon®. Since embarking on her yoga journey a decade ago, she has been blessed with the opportunity to study with a number of loving and inspiring teachers throughout California, most notably Ganga White and Tracey Rich, Cameron Shayne, Saul David Raye, Shiva Rea, and Jill Miller. She has received over 500 hours of professional training in the arts of yoga, meditation, Budokon®, Yoga Tune Up®, and Thai Yoga Massage Therapy, and has assisted both Budokon® creator Cameron Shayne and Yoga Tune Up® creator Jill Miller in their public classes. 

Petula brings her love and enthusiasm for yoga to her teaching. She teaches a diverse and eclectic array of individuals ranging from college students, corporate executives, professionals in the entertainment industry, and Hollywood celebrities to active seniors in their 70s. When working privately with individuals, she develops the best practice for each individual by tailoring each session to the client's specific needs. Her public classes simultaneously balance the cultivation of strength, stamina, and flexibility in the physical body and the practices of love, forgiveness, and compassion in the emotional body. She encourages all her students to approach their mats as safe places where they can experience the pleasures and joys of their physical practices as well as investigate the sources of discomfort, unease, and fears in their lives. She challenges her students to find their personal edges and, in the process, expand their worlds and transform their lives.
