Amie Petro, E-RYT 500 & CPT
Owner of Flow to Fit Yoga, LLC
Amie began practicing yoga fifteen years ago. After her very first yoga class she experienced an immediate sense of relief and realized that yoga was the answer to a more peaceful, balanced life. In February 2010 she received her 200-hour yoga teacher certification and a few years later became a Certified Personal Trainer and Pilates Mat Instructor as well. In 2019 Amie received an additional 300hr certification from Down Under School of yoga and in 2024 received an Aerial Yoga Teacher Certification.
​
She teaches Vinyasa flow-to-fit style classes with strong emphasis on building functional strength and flexibility. A typical class begins with a warm up, then core strengthening, followed by a creative but thoughtful flow through poses. The entire practice is centered around building functional strength, correcting muscular imbalances and posture, and improving balance. This not only enables students to perform everyday tasks with ease, but also helps prevent and avoid injuries.
​
Amie specializes in helping those recovering from an injury, surgery or dealing with chronic pain. She gradually increases the intensity of each workout to build strength slowly and mindfully preventing re-injury and setbacks.
​
In addition to being a dedicated yogi, Amie enjoys running ultra marathons,
lifting, hiking and traveling.
Amie believes in treating the whole person; body, mind & spirit and that consistency and support are the two most important factors in achieving and maintaining health and happiness.
