Transitioning from a background in apparel design, Elisa's odyssey has evolved into an enduring pursuit of artistry and an unwavering commitment to lifelong learning, all while embracing the honor of sharing the profound teachings of yoga.
Amidst years of personal practice, Elisa has borne witness to the myriad benefits of yoga, a transformative journey that has fortified her connection to the divine within, cultivating strength, health, happiness, flexibility, and fearlessness both on and off the mat.
Grateful for the enriching gift of yoga in her life, Elisa stands humbled in the opportunity to extend these transformative teachings to others. Holding the prestigious Yoga Alliance titles of Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500) and Teacher Trainer (YACEP & RYS-300), she completed her foundational 200 Hour Training under the guidance of Hayleigh Zachary at YogaWorks and her advanced 300 Hour Training with the esteemed Rina Jakubowicz. Certified in The Yoga Remedy and mentored by Dani Ibarra, Elisa further honed her expertise in Yin Yoga with Bianca Fearon and Restorative Yoga with Jillian Pransky. As an Urban Zen Integrative Therapist, Master Level Reiki Practitioner, and certified Sound Healer, her thirst for knowledge led her to a Master's program in Subtle Body Training with Jeanne Heileman, coupled with insightful Business of Yoga mentorship under Danni Pomplun.
In addition to her roles, Elisa is also a teacher of teachers, nurturing the next generation of yoga instructors. For her, yoga is an unending journey of learning and unlearning. Her deepest gratitude extends to both her cherished mentors and the diverse array of students, each unveiling the profound truth that unlearning is an integral aspect of the learning process. Having worked with yogis of all levels, she draws inspiration from the boundless capacity of yoga to challenge and inspire every practitioner.
In her classes, Elisa aspires to guide students to their equilibrium—encouraging just enough effort, complemented by an innate wisdom to release, thereby discovering the exquisite harmony between control and surrender. Through artful sequencing, attention to alignment, and a touch of inspiration, her aim is to lead individuals into the depths of the present moment. Beyond the mat, practitioners emerge not only realigned and revitalized but also steeped in a profound sense of relaxation.
With anticipation, Elisa looks forward to the privilege of sharing the transformative practice with others, guiding them on a journey toward joy, peace, and self-discovery.
Namaste!
