Allison was a fantastic instructor and an absolute pleasure to work with during our training camp in Chula Vista. She led two yoga sessions for our team and did an excellent job tailoring the classes to meet our team's needs. Communication with Allison was seamless, and she made the entire process incredibly easy from an operations standpoint. Her organization, flexibility, and positive energy stood out, and our team gained a lot from both sessions. We’re looking forward to working with her again and hope to continue sessions with her when we’re back on the West Coast.

Allison has been coming to my house twice a week to give privateyogainstruction to me and my daughter. She is an absolute pro, always on time, and we are learning so much. She is a joy to work with and we always look forward to our sessions. Allison gives us options on what we'd like to work on, and we end up getting a well-rounded lesson (we're both beginners but not for long!) and feeling invigorated and relaxed. Highly recommend!

Allison was truly amazing. The whole process was more than we could have asked for. From the initial response to my request, several thumbtack conversations & texts, to check ins leading up to the date & the yoga party itself was 100% all I could’ve asked for & wanted for my daughters bachelorette weekend in San Diego. My daughter wanted to do yoga on the beach and Allison made it happen!! My daughter had a smile on her face from the beginning to the end and as a mother that’s all you could ask for! Allison was so patience with the rowdy 19 of us, she was super accommodating/helpful finding locations & the price was perfect! Allison is truly the sweetest soul with a beaming smile & her knowledge in Yoga shows in the class & how she teaches it. We would absolutely do it again with Allison if the opportunity presented itself again. 10/10 amazing experience!
Details: 12 students • 23 - 30 years old • No yoga preference • Beginner • Relaxation • My home, venue, etc.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Heather! I'm so happy the gals had a good time. Everyone was great to work with and I hope you'll visit again so we can have another beach class!

Allison was amazing and so accommodating to our party of 5. Most of the group was new to yoga- Allison worked at a pace that worked for the beginners and offered hands on adjustments and help. Everyone was raving about Allison and their yoga experience. I would highly recommend Allison!!

Allison has a great sprint and is very encouraging. I learn new poses every practice and feel stronger and more balanced. I grow with every lesson and look forward to the next practice. I would recommend Allison for any level of Yoga.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge $125/session for one-on-one classes but I also offer a discount for weekly corporate classes at your office space. I'm happy to discuss over the phone or via the Thumbtack app!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I typically like to chat with a potential customer on the phone first to ensure it is a good fit for all parties. I like to know if there are any specific goals the potential client is hoping to meet with our sessions and if he or she has any past injuries that we need to address.
I also like my clients to know that I am a non-diet/non-weight loss trainer, which means I don't focus on the numbers on the scale. I focus on how exercise feels in the client's body, what makes them feel stronger, more balanced and more flexible.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
After many years of feeling like yoga was reserved for the flexible, I signed up for yoga teacher training with Gerhard Gessner at Prana Yoga Center in La Jolla, CA. During the training, I learned to turn my weakness into strength by creating playful sequences that go beyond stretching and tap into the true benefits of personal practice. I have focused my career on helping others become healthier.
I hold a Fitness Instruction & Exercise Science Certification from UCSD extension where I expanded my knowledge of metabolic diseases, nutrition for athletes and exercise for special populations including older adults, pregnant women and youth fitness. I work with private yoga and personal training clients, ages 12 to 92, and I teach vinyasa flow classes with an emphasis on proper alignment and breath-work.
