About Alana

Originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico, Alana danced from coast to coast perusing her love of theatre dance. Starting in Oakland, CA where she received a BA in Dance, she then moved to NYC to study at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater School. Several injuries landed Alana in a yoga studio where she says the rest is history. Yoga gave Alana the tools to heal from the inside out, a gift that keeps on giving. She has globe trotted to study yoga; from sitting with Ram Dass in Maui, to dancing in the jungle of Costa Rica with her teacher Amy Ippoliti, Alana’s free spirit is always hungry for an adventure. She believes that healing is not linear, community is the greatest teacher and that a consistent yoga practice will change your life.

“I can’t recommend Yoga with Alana enough. I was first introduced to Alana through a workshop where she taught meditation and breathwork. I was immediately hooked on her energy and wanted to learn more about her services. I started taking her yoga classes and have not looked back since. She has a unique attention to detail and care about her sequencing that is RARE to find in a teacher these days. I have done yoga for over a decade and as a certified yoga teacher myself I can tell when teachers are just phoning it in. This is NEVER the case with Alana, you can viscerally feel the opposite from her as she just oozes care and comfort into her class. You can tell she really wants to serve and help you become the best version of yourself.” — Mike Aidala
