Andrea Russell has been studying yoga and meditation since 1996 and began teaching in 2000.  A certified yoga instructor with Yoga Alliance at the 500 E-hour level, she has completed teacher trainings in Ashtanga, Alignment and Therapeutic Yoga.  She is currently an assistant instructor for Alignment Yoga's teacher training program.  She has been greatly inspired by Pattabhi Jois, Richard Freeman, Michael Stone and Scott Anderson.

Her yoga classes unite mindful asana with alignment, breath and inner awareness.  She teaches private yoga sessions for those who prefer an individual or therapeutic approach to this timeless practice.  In addition to yoga, Andrea is a nationally and state certified massage therapist/bodyworker who specializes in Neurovascular Integration/ Craniosacral Therapy.  Her approach to yoga and bodywork is holistic and tailored for each individual to support greater vitality in body, mind and heart.

Off the mat she enjoys being in nature close to the earth and visiting the sacred sites of the world.
