Alissa is a restorative yoga teacher, a curator of quiet spaces, meditation writer, and a sweet accompaniment in all things of spirit.

As it often goes in life, her launch into well-being was first sparked by a personal health crisis.  When faced with the immense difficulty of letting go, it became clear:

She really had no idea how. 

And so the search for answers began.  Her introspective nature drew her to a two year program in the art of spiritual direction, and psycho-spiritual formation and practice at the Haden Institute. 

But, this was really just the beginning.

As she finally settled onto the mat with yoga and meditation, things came together.  She felt better.  To understand why, she entered into a contemplative year of quiet, exploring the deeply healing restorative practice, the Yoga of Being. 

Out of this quiet grew her love for what heals us, inspiring a further pursuit into therapy-based Yoga Teacher training (300hr), and Restorative Yin Yoga training (20hr) at Yoga Therapy Toronto.  To expand her understanding of the inner life, and somatic practice she continues to study Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness with David Treleaven.

Culminating years of study, training and lived experience, she now offers you an opportunity to work together that is both meaningful and, in these times we live, necessary.   Well-being is within our reach, be in touch to learn more.
