Vielesha (she/her)
I am devoted to showing others how life changing incorporating holistic wellness practices like yoga and sound therapy can be in their day to lives. For over 15 years I have lived with the struggles of two autoimmune diseases. In my journey to sustain optimal health, I discovered the real change in my body and mental state happened when I was introduced to yogic philosophy and sound therapy in 2014 by a college professor.
After practicing yoga for several years in 2022, I went on to earn a 200-hour yoga teacher certification with Cathy Madeo Yoga. Later in 2024, I embarked on a journey to Rishikesh, India to study yoga and Tibetan Sound Healing. As a forever student, I am currently studying the practice of Yoga Nidra and am enrolled in a 300- hour yoga teaching training in India with the Vinyasa Yogashala school in Rishikesh, India.
In my classes you can expect a combination of traditional and creative sequences. Students will be encouraged and challenged in a supportive way, truly meeting them where they are while also exploring future possibilities. Outside of asana practice, I weave in yogic philosophy, breath-work and share tools that students can use in their everyday lives.
