Elise

Elise is an instructor of 26+2, and she trained with Christian in 2021. Elise teaches because she believes this practice has the ability to heal the mind, and in doing so, improve the body along with it. She enjoys being in service to others as a means to connect and share her joy of movement. Developing a regular yoga routine has helped Elise become more loving and accepting of herself. The practice allows her to focus on presence, which creates a solid foundation for the rest of the day. Elise continues to teach because she values the powerful feelings that come from consistent practice and believes that learning through others is the most formative means to furthering her own self-inquiry. 

Elise is passionate about improvisational dance and somatics. She also enjoys gardening, taking photographs, and watching documentaries. As a mother of three, she finds serenity in the woods and exploring our local trails. An ideal day would include a good sweat at the studio, visiting a local art gallery or coffee shop, and cruising around with no agenda.
