My name is Alia (rhymes with Dahlia!), and I'm so thrilled to meet you! I'm a recovering attorney-turned-entrepreneur, and after a long and winding journey, found my calling as a yoga teacher and studio owner. I practiced for nearly five years as a big law associate before jumping ship to build a career that actually used my superpowers and passions. I began teaching yoga because I knew I couldn't be the only person who craved a practical approach to yoga that wasn't all about seeing how far I could push my body. My mission as a teacher is to bring yoga to people who think it isn't for them, or for people who already love yoga, but are looking for a down-to-earth, alignment-focused practice that still maintains the musical rhythm of the vinyasa flow style.
