A note from Riva: Emily is the reason HLSYA exists. I had the life-changing opportunity to complete my RYT-200 yoga teacher training with her in Bali during Summer 2023, and I’m beyond thrilled to welcome her to Cambridge. A world-class teacher trainer, Emily brings strength, grace, and deep intention to every flow and grounds her practice in yoga's rich philosophy and history. She is generously teaching this class on a pro bono basis <3 I can't wait for you to experience her powerful and inspiring teaching!
About Emily
Emily is a yoga teacher and teacher trainer with over a decade of teaching experience and a global community of dedicated students. She blends the breath and philosophy of yoga with the strength and flow of vinyasa asana practice. Emily studied yoga at the University of Virginia’s Contemplative Sciences Center, which deepened her understanding of yoga's theory and practice, then went on to study Ashtanga, Tantra, and other movement disciplines like FRC, functional range conditioning, and pilates. Her teaching emphasizes creative sequencing, detachment from the asanas, and a playful exploration of the balance between ease and effort, creating a practice that extends far beyond the mat. Emily has cultivated a community of several hundred thousand online, an online studio with a thousand dedicated students, and launched her first yoga teacher training through her company, Lila Wellness. She is an Alo Yoga sponsored athlete and currently lives in LA with her husband, Ben, and their baby daughter, Harper!
