Introduction: I have been told as a yoga teacher that my classes are fun, challenging, and playful. I have also been told that I work the students hard, then gently bring them down to rest. I enjoy challenging the modern sequencing order, but also appreciate the root of the yoga practice and the foundational postures. I weave dharma and life lessons into my classes, hoping to relate to my students as I too am a student, and a fellow human being simply living and learning every day. I love helping people explore their body and their capabilities in a way that they may not otherwise try on their own.

I am new to Yoga; I have never practiced Yoga, and did not understand its profound impact. With a leap of faith I jumped into a daily practice with a Yoga studio in Cambridge MA, and with Alissa at my work. Alissa’s teaching style is a breath of fresh air, it is nurturing, encouraging, light hearted, technically knowledgeable, creative, and spiritual; this from my short experience is not always the case. When struggling she would help, when flowing she offered up encouragement, Alissa was in tuned to the class. I looked forward to every single class with great anticipation and joy. I am quite sad to see her go, my life and practice will be a little less rich. The people in Portland are gaining a great teacher and person, I wish her well.

Alissa taught yoga at our workplace. I am not new to yoga but haven’t done much of it the last few years and Alissa’s class was a great way to get back into it again. Her verbal cues and demonstrations are clear and I felt like I learned a lot after just one class. She is so extremely helpful with assisting you as you bend, shift and twist your way into the poses... your comfort and proper form are one of her utmost focuses. I love that Alissa always asks her students if there is anything that someone would like to work on before the class begins. As others have noted here, she is very passionate about yoga and is dedicated to helping others reap its benefits and I would highly recommend trying her classes.

Alissa is one of those rare teachers that has that inexplicable magic and you just KNOW this is what she is meant to be doing. Her intuitive assisting and heart-felt connection to the practice combine to make her one of my favorite instructors ever.
