ABOUT ALISHA

Alisha is a yoga and meditation teacher living and working in Goa, India. She also teaches students from across the globe through her online sessions.

Alisha was drawn to yoga out of pure fascination for the intangible and the mystical. Naturally introspective and deeply invested in self-exploration, an inner knowing that there is more to our existence than what we experience with our senses is what got her into the science, philosophy and practice of yoga.

As a teacher, Alisha’s approach is grounded and intuitive, emphasizing the therapeutic nature of the practice. Having taught at SWAN Yoga Retreat in Goa and at the award-winning spa, Ananda In the Himalayas, near Rishikesh, she truly understands the value and the need for an integrated approach to health and wellness. Alisha is a certified Classical Hatha Yoga teacher from the Sivananda Yoga & Vedanta Ashram in Kerala, has been mentored in the Bihar School of Yoga tradition and is exploring teachings from the Krishnamacharya tradition at present. She believes a consistent and correctly-guided practice is key to one’s physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Moreover, Alisha relies heavily on insight and aims to communicate that through her teaching; it is through these insights that she has accessed the heart of yoga as spiritual practice. For Alisha, the purpose of practice is to heal and integrate the fragmented aspects of the body-mind phenomenon to emerge whole, complete and, most importantly, free!
