Hi there! Here's a little info about me - I have been practicing yoga for over 30 years and began teaching in 2013. I completed a 200-hour Teacher Training Program with Jala Yoga in Shepherdstown, WV. I have received further training in Yin, Trauma Informed and Restorative Yoga. In 2024 I completed a 300-hour Advanced Teacher Training Program offered by Christa Mastrangelo Joyce with a focus on cultivating curiosity, adaptability, and engagement in the practice of yoga.

I am recognized by Yoga Alliance as E-RYT 200, RYT 500 and YACEP, which means I am a Registered Yoga Teacher with over 500 hours of yoga teacher training, over 1,000 hours of teaching experience and am a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider. I am an ambassador for the Accessible Yoga Community, a resource for offering yoga to marginalized individuals and communities. I offer both group and private yoga classes in Maryland.

I enjoy offering yoga to all students - beginners, as well as more seasoned practitioners. My classes encourage students to be mindful, curious and playful. Poses will be adapted to meet the needs of everyone. I believe that the best yoga practice is one that can be safely sustained and evolves with you, as you grow and change. When not in the yoga studio, I enjoy family time with kids and grandkids, hiking, camping, traveling, and wine tasting. https://www.elainelewisyoga.com/
