Alison Brown

My name is Alison. I am an experienced yoga instructor and massage therapist with over 30yrs of  practice in both modalities. My husband and I are raising our two teenage sons in an active small town in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. This lifestyle and proximity to nature keeps me grounded and balanced. I have been teaching movement based classes since i was 13 years old as a demonstrator for my dance teacher to young dancers. I am passionate about teaching and creating a safe space and a sense of comfort for all participants. I use humour when introducing yoga to beginners and watch their fears evaporate. Humour also comes in handy while instructing seasoned yogis and yoginis as it dispels any competitive tendencies. My teaching style is anywhere from soft and nurturing to strong and alignment based. I love the challenges of adjusting my classes to accommodate participants of all ages, experience and levels of fitness. I am a forever student with a passion for learning. I completed a 200hr yoga teacher training in 2001 on the island of Ibiza, Spain. I am a certified Yoga Teacher Trainer with a well over 500hr Teacher training in 2022/23. I am looking forward to the next step in my career of guiding yoga practitioners through the transition to become yoga instructors themselves.
