I am also available for Reiki sessions and will continue to offer occasional online workshops.
CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:
Move mindfully, in sync with your breath, through a well-rounded and detailed flow of postures designed to stretch, strengthen, balance and relax the body while soothing the nervous system and quieting the mind. This class is accessible to yogis of all levels and modifications are always offered in order to safely meet you where your practice needs to be today. You will leave class feeling energized, yet relaxed.
In Sanskrit vinyasa means “to place in a special way.” In this class, we will flow through a dynamic sequence of traditional Sun Salutations and standing postures, linking breath to movement as we build strength, endurance, balance and flexibility.

Then take a journey inward through long holds in deep stretches in a slow, soothing, and meditative style of yoga that targets the deep connective tissues, bones, joints, fascia, and ligaments.
Life is a balance of holding on and letting go. For more overall balance on and off the mat, try incorporating some Yin into your practice. It's a natural compliment to a Hatha/Vinyasa practice. Take a journey inward through long holds in deep stretches in this slow, soothing, and meditative style of yoga that targets the deep connective tissues, bones, joints, fascia, and ligaments in the body.
In this class students will link gentle movements to breath, creating space in the joints, while strengthening and stretching various muscle groups. In a Viniyoga approach, poses are tailored towards the needs of each individual, making the class appropriate for students of all levels, as well as students with injuries. Breath work and guided meditation will be added for a complete mind/body experience.
Free your spine with some low back love! With the intention of easing back discomfort, this all levels class is designed to open and release those areas which we habitually compress in our daily lives. No previous yoga experience needed.
Yoga for Mobility is about creating space and decompressing areas that have become shortened due to the things we do on a daily basis. The gentle movements, which increase blood flow, are effective in relieving pain and supporting optimal function of the joints, muscles and organs while calming the nervous system. This class is appropriate for students with injuries as well as students looking to increase their strength, flexibility, and general well-being.
Urban Zen Integrative Therapy luxuriously layers modalities such as mindful movements, gentle stretches, comfy restorative postures, aromatherapy, breath awareness, guided meditation, and reiki for the ultimate relaxing experience. Tension literally melts away from body and mind in these relaxing sessions. This class is accessible to yogis of all levels, and can be private or in a group setting.
WORKSHOPS:
Diving deeper into topics through a workshop is a great way to expand beyond your traditional yoga asana practice. Featured topics will be offered in workshop format. Check back for upcoming workshops.
REIKI:
Reiki, a spiritual healing art of Japanese origin, derives from the Japanese words "Rei" which means “Universal Life” and "Ki" which means “Energy”.
Reiki is a light touch healing practice that moves the recipient's system toward balance. The sense of calm that Reiki provides reduces the nervous system's stress response, restores physical and emotional well-being, and invites deep relaxation, allowing the body to heal itself.
As a Reiki Master, Elisa has facilitated Reiki Sessions at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and UCLA RRMC, and is available for private Reiki Sessions.
