I've been working with Elissa for over a month now and really enjoy our sessions. Elissa is a thorough professional and fun to work with. She adapts her sessions to my limitations (on & off back issues). Although I'm only working once a week, I can see my yoga practice develop.

I have been a student of Elissa's for about three years and she has been a great teacher. I really appreciate her thoughtful approach and gentle demeanor. Also very useful and sensitive corrections. She has clearly furthered my yoga practice while making it very enjoyable!

I have taken lessons off and on with Elissa for years and always get a wonderful class. She is always willing to work with you if you want to focus on a specific part of the body or just want an innovated flow. She is very professional, easy going, and above dedicated to yoga. Her classes are well worth it.

Elissa is a fantastic yoga teacher - relaxing and challenging at the same time. She is very mindful of personalizing the poses to adjust for any condition or injury. I always feel great after practicing with her!

I have been taking Elissa's yoga classes at BAC for about three years and have enjoyed every one of them. She is very good at gently correcting and aligning poses and her calm and sunniness are wonderfully infectious and soothing. Elissa has been very understanding and extremely helpful finding modifications when I have had unrelated injuries making it possible for me to continue my practice. I feel lucky to have her as a teacher.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask them what their personal goals.. where they want to get , more flexibility, more patience, more strength. If they have some injuries or an imbalance then I try to work on that by giving them specific asana or pranayama.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a 200 hr Teacher certification from Laughing Lotus Yoga and a 500 hr advanced teacher certification from Ishta Yoga. I now help teach the Teacher Training at ishta yoga.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was amazed at how Yoga and meditation practice made me feel happier and freer and wanted it to be a more important part of my life so I felt teaching was both a great way stay dedicated to it and a way to give back.
