Hi! I’m Larissa, I am a certified yoga instructor.

​

I grew up in New York and was a ballet dancer for many years.  My workouts shifted to high-intensity cardio and strength training.  I used yoga as something to do on my “off” days.  In the wake of the pandemic, I felt adrift in my passions and sense of self.

 

I began my journey back to the root of myself by revisiting yoga.  I enjoyed yoga because I felt that rather than just exercise, it offered many holistic health and mental benefits.

​

I realized that yoga is a form of moving meditation; linking breath to motion was powerful. Vinyasa and Power yoga are some of my favorite workouts and Yin yoga became my meditative avenue to improve flexibility and circulation. The union of mind, body, and spirit had such a profound impact on me, that I felt I needed to get certified and share yoga with anyone interested.

​

I love to spend my free time with my family, cooking and practicing yoga.  I attend several yoga retreats and workshops every year.
