you’ve made it.

welcome.

define your why.

purposeful movement leads to a passionate mind.

hoosier born and raised, ellen’s roots stem wholeheartedly in the midwest.

growing up, i was in the dance world from age 3 through 18. i learned a lot about expression, my body, music. physically dancing took a toll on my body but i wanted to continue to stay active and express myself creatively.

i took a yoga class at my university gym & continually wanted more. after finding a local yoga studio i was hooked for the next 3 years. i applied to work the first desk at this same studio & even after learning the inner workings of studio business - lots of laundry, retail, early mornings & late nights - i knew i had to take a teacher training.

finding a studio after moving to seattle was like finding another home. the people, the classes, the release. it was all essential in my transition across the states. on a whim i signed up for my 200hr RYT ( registered yoga teacher ) training without knowing if i could afford it or even before i knew any of the coaches. it became the best decision of my life. we all have our ‘ish’ and yoga became my therapy & outlet.

i learned to slow down & breathe. i hope to help you do the same.

testimonials.

“i can’t thank ellen enough for the space she creates us within her yoga classes. she allows us to show up as we are to move our bodies in any way that feels good.

in ellen’s classes i feel guided & supported to rid myself of unwanted energy & create new energy. her emphasis on breath keeps me grounded in the moment & allows me to heal myself from whatever has come up in life. thank you ellen!”
