Hey! My name is Alexa and I am a 400 Hour Certified Yoga Instructor (2 separate 200 Hour trainings) specializing in Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Yin Yoga. I recently graduated from NYU Gallatin where I pursued a BA studying the integration of Mindfulness and Eastern Philosophy with Performance, and minored in Child Psychopathology.
Having studied under teachers I have long admired such as Bethany Lyons, Brittany Bamrick, Dawn DeLeonardis, Jonah Kest, Ava Johanna, Ashley Griffin and Andrew Sealy, I love being a constant student of this practice and sharing what I have learned with others!
About Me
My story:
I was first exposed to yoga in my high school gym class. We had the option to take a yoga course and opt out of weight lifting - so, naturally I was ALL IN. I had 0 idea how much my life would transform after finding this practice. It gave me autonomy. It has allowed me to feel more in control of my anxiety and to step into the most confident version of myself I have ever known.
​
As a longtime performer, I never intended or expected for this to be my life path. It has never been more clear, however, that this is my purpose.
My WHY
I see it as my sacred duty as a teacher to cultivate a community that makes everyone feel welcome. My yoga community growing up provided me with a sense of belonging I had never felt before. I hope to give this back to everyone I can.
​
It always has been and always will be about COMMUNITY.
