Hi, I'm Emily

My yoga journey began over 20 years ago when my dad and I decided to try a local yoga class. I settled into my first ever savasana and knew my life path had changed. Since that moment, yoga has been with me in the ups and downs of life. It has been a practice I have used to support my mental, physical, and spiritual health. I have taught for the past decade and my experience ranges from addiction recovery, to corporate wellness, to teaching at some of the top yoga studios in Southern California. 

 

My classes are centered around the breath as a way to stay present as well as a way to release tension. Yin, restorative yoga, and yoga nidra are my passion and supporting others find deep rest is my Dharma. My guidance, though sometimes silly, is intended to be graceful and safe. I am a trauma-informed yoga teacher and my classes are a joyful environment for curious exploration. My wish is that you leave my classes feeling relaxed and empowered to take on the ups and downs of your life with balance and ease. 

 

When I am not in the yoga room, I am either learning to surf the waves, making yummy gluten-free pancakes, or in creation of something new. I look forward to meeting you and wish you ease on your journey.

Yogi Road's 
Story

Yogi Road began as a way to bring yoga and mindfulness to the winding road of life. It formed in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers of Southern California. Supporting those in recovery find holistic routines that brought balance and stability to their lives was the main focus. In 2020 when the world shut down and the burn out, stress, and anxiety had reached a peak in my life, rest became the focus. Now it is at the forefront of what Yogi Road aims to create in the world: A rested, thoughtful, loving world. 

"I met Emily when I started my sober journey and she has been my saving grace. Her listening and attention to detail are beyond. She makes me feel heard and understood even when it's difficult to articulate my own thoughts. Emily has a calm healing energy that is so welcoming to open up to. That along with her techniques and recommendations, whether it be a podcast, meditation, etc., have helped guide me back to the right path. Will forever be grateful for her work!"
