Understanding Yoga Through The Experience Of The Body

The physical body and the breath are powerful tools to cultivate mindfulness, and self-observation is at the heart of my teachings. Expect challenging but transformational classes and intelligent sequences that build towards peak postures. These postures are not just physical achievements; they are a homecoming, a moment of profound connection, where the body and mind work in harmony. As we infuse every movement with awareness, we approach these peaks with ease, without struggle, and with a warm sense of welcome.

My teachings are honest and bare, sprinkled with sense of humour and infused with heart.
I love working with props as they can help students find more space, freedom and stability in each posture, while also providing endless learning opportunities.

Absolutely love Alessia’s classes. I always feel so calm, relaxed and grounded. Each week I look forward to something new that is a mixture of simple and tough. Alessia has taught me the importance of mindfulness and creating awareness of the body not only in practise, but in everyday. Highly recommend her classes.” — Ellen Xenedis
