Introduction: My services include: -Private yoga instruction (Vinyasa, Restorative/Yin) -Group yoga instruction -Private meditation/breathing instruction -Group meditation/breathing instruction -Reiki healing As a former professional ballet dancer and practicing yogi with over 20 years of experience, I believe that purposeful, mindful movement can heal both body and soul. When you feel at peace in your physical self, you are better able to navigate your emotional, mental, and spiritual self. I specialize in designing custom yoga practices that are tailored to each client’s unique needs and movement goals whether that is increased flexibility, pain relief, mobility work, strength training, anxiety and stress reduction, or even just a more mindful awareness of your physical self. All of my practices integrate the breath with movement to music. My goal is to help you enter a mental flow state, washing away all external inputs and turning completely inward, listening to yourself only. Additionally, I am trained and certified in Restorative yoga, so if you are looking for more restorative/yin personalized classes, please contact me. I also offer alternative energy healing sessions in the form of Reiki. Reiki is a Japanese technique for relaxation and stress reduction that channels the invisible life force that connects all of us. Reiki can be useful in correcting imbalances in the spirit, body, and mind. Each person experiences Reiki differently. Prior to your session, we will review your intake form to better understand your current phase of life and why you are being called to participate in a Reiki session. I will explain in detail how the session will be conducted and what to expect during and after your Reiki experience. Reiki is a powerful tool that can facilitate mental, physical, and spiritual healing. My meditation sessions are also customized to each student's needs. Together, we will select and explore a variety of mindfulness and spirituality-based themes with the goal of understanding how these mental practices and beliefs can be integrated into your daily life and help you find peace and feel centered during moments of stress. I am 200-Hour Certified Yoga Instructor, a Yoga Alliance Registered Teacher, and have completed my Restorative Yoga Training and Certification. I am also a trained and certified Reiki Master. I am available to travel to clients within a 5-mile radius of River West, or I can provide the training site at my high-rise in River West (60642) where we can practice in the yoga studio in our fully equipped fitness facility. Reiki sessions will always be performed in the client's home. Please contact me with any questions. Namaste.

Due to an accident, I fell and shattered my left elbow and dislocated my right shoulder. I wanted to increase my strength, flexibility and balance, but because of my injuries I was not comfortable attending a group class. While speaking with a friend after my elbow surgery, I mentioned my fitness goals and concerns. My friend suggested that I contact Allison. I contacted Allison and we discussed my injuries and fitness goals. She understood my concerns and goals immediately. Allison was very accommodating with my scheduled doctor and physical therapy appointments. Through my individual yoga instruction with Allison, I feel that my flexibility and balance have definitely improved. I highly recommend Allison for her private client expertise and professionalism.

Allison's yoga sessions have been an absolute game-changer for my practice. Her dedication and passion shine through in every session, creating a personalized experience that's truly transformative. Her expert guidance ensures each pose is performed correctly, minimizing any risk of injury while maximizing the practice's benefits. What truly sets Allison apart is her attentiveness to individual needs including knowledge of the practice and hands on assists. She tailors each session to address my specific goals and concerns, resulting in a practice that's both challenging and deeply rewarding. Her amazing presence and encouragement foster an environment where I can explore my practice with confidence. Through her sessions, Allison not only enhances physical growth but also nurtures my mental and spiritual well-being. The incorporation of mindfulness and spirituality elevates the experience like none other. Her expertise, combined with her caring nature, create an unparalleled journey of self-discovery and growth. I wholeheartedly recommend Allison to anyone seeking a personalized and enriching yoga practice.
