Hi! I’m Emily. I am a 200 Hour Certified Yoga Instructor who is insured and registered with the Yoga Alliance. I received my training with Sacred Journeys Yoga in November of 2021. The training program was rigorous and deeply transformative, guiding me to become not only more connected with my own yoga practice but also extremely versed in providing a well-rounded, healing and supportive practice for others.

I began practicing yoga in 2016 and quickly grew to realize that I would one day be a teacher myself due to how beneficial and therapeutic yoga became to me. My style of teaching is inclusive, loving and inspiring - all things that are very indicative of how I have personally experienced yoga. It is an honor to be able to translate that into an outward projection so that others can experience it, too.

I come from a performance background which led me to receive a BA in Theatre and Dance from James Madison University in 2017. From a very young age, I was practicing my own versions of movement in a medicinal sense through dance and gymnastics. I have always found much peace and healing through movement and it has carried me up until where I am today.

I want nothing more than for my students to feel safe and supported during my offerings, while also being guided to strengthen their body, mind and spirit. It brings me immense joy to have the opportunity to share the gift of yoga with others and I know teaching this practice is an innate part of who I am. I enjoy incorporating meditation, breathwork and somatic therapy into my classes and oftentimes close class with a poem that I have written to send my students off into their day feeling grounded and enlightened all at once.

I teach in the NYC area as well as the Hamptons, NY where I grew up. Whether it is an in-person lesson or virtual, my classes will provide you with the benefits and tools to guide you closer to your body, mind, heart and spirit. I look forward to moving with you.

With Peace and Light,

Emily
