Faculty » Allison Richards

Allison was introduced to yoga in 1997 and was excited she had finally found a form of exercise that didn’t require shoes! As she deepened her study with Yoga, it became so much more than just a form of exercise. In 2006, she gained her certification from the Center for Yoga studying with James Brown and Natasha Rizopoulos. In 2007, she completed an advanced program through YogaWorks studying with Julie Kleinman, Lisa Walford, Jasmine Lieb and Annie Carpenter. She believes in the importance of the mind, body and breath connection in regards to health and wellness and works to help her students experience this connection in new and exciting ways. She brings her lighthearted, nurturing spirit into each class and strives to create a playful, yet challenging practice while encouraging her students to listen to and learn from their bodies.
