My Yoga Journey
I’m a certified yoga teacher with a 200-Hour Yoga Alliance certification that I completed in 2019 at a hot yoga studio in New York City.
I first discovered yoga as a teenager, but I truly leaned into the practice 10 years ago when I needed more grounding in my life. Now, yoga has been my constant, and in 2019 I decided to deepen my relationship with the practice through teacher training.
Interestingly, I didn’t start training with the intention to teach. My commitment on day one of training was to simply Lean In to the experience. I was part of a group that embraced vulnerability, growth, and non-judgment, and I promised myself I’d do the same. I’d listen to my inner voice and follow where it led - whether that meant teaching or not.
As it turns out, I did want to teach. I’ve now been sharing yoga with family, friends, and coworkers since 2020, and even had the chance to teach at a small studio after moving out of NYC. I’ve been loving every experience and want to extend my reach!
My classes are vinyasa-style flows. I love cuing the breath and creating space to sink into each pose before building into a more energizing flow. I’ve also completed Chakra Training and enjoy weaving subtle energy work into the physical practice, helping students tune into what’s moving beneath the surface - on and off the mat.
Wherever you are in your journey, I’d love to practice with you. Let’s Lean In - together.

“Allison is simply the best! I began my yoga practice under her skilled, patient, and caring guidance about two years ago. I was starting from square one in my flexibility and pose knowledge. Throughout, she has been very thoughtful in tailoring the classes to meet my level while also challenging and encouraging me. She builds classes that target areas where I hold the most stress, that target certain chakras as needed and that help me to “stay on the mat” mentally when outside pressures try to seep in. She has given me a love for yoga and a confidence in my abilities that I never thought possible. My praise for Allison is hard to put into words because she has made such a difference in my life. It is clear that her heart is 100% invested in providing the best experience for me or any student she works with. She is truly one of a kind.”
