Yoga
Ellese was first introduced to yoga as a complement to her dance training. Although she was initially drawn to the physicality of mindful movement, she was interested in delving into the spiritual and philosophical aspects of yoga and meditation. She completed initial teacher training at Satchidananda Ashram in 2008. This transformative experience provided the foundation of Ellese’s teaching methods. Ellese completed her doctorate in physical therapy at UNC and uses her expertise in anatomy and neuromusculoskeletal issues to further guide her practice and teaching. Ellese’s classes emphasize intentional functional movement with focus on breath and alignment. Each practice ends with a guided deep relaxation to calm the nervous system, clear the mind, and connect you more deeply to your heart. Ellese teaches vinyasa, prenatal and postpartum yoga and leads yoga teacher training modules in anatomy and physiology, prenatal and postpartum yoga and yoga for seniors.
