Class Instructor

Elyse Perry

Movement has been medicine for Elyse since she was a young girl growing up and playing in the woods of the Hudson Valley of New York. At a very young age she began taking ballet and tap classes and devoted much of her early life to dance. She discovered yoga her senior year of college and after moving from New York to San Francisco quickly fell in love with the flowing movements of a vinyasa practice. She has been a student of yoga for 25 years learning from many teachers, including Seane Corne, Hala Khouri and Hannah Muse. Yoga was instrumental in her getting sober and is one of the pillars of her 2+ years in recovery. She believes through the practice of yoga we remember our true nature and can find our way home to ourselves. She is passionate about sharing the practice of yoga with others on their paths of recovery. She completed her RYT-200 with Samdhana Yoga and Alicia Cheung in Bali and has been teaching since 2023. She is currently a yoga therapist in training with Inner Peace Yoga Therapy.
