Allison Sheehan is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, and received her 200 hour teacher training certification in January of 2017, in East Greenbush, New York.  Allison is certified to teach Kundalini Yoga and Meditation and began teaching weekly classes upon her certification. Allison began her yoga path in 2005, as the need and search for a path of self care and stress management emerged personally. The everyday stress of working as a social worker in the community forced a practical and accessible solution. Once this journey began, Allison was hooked to the practice and never looked back. Allison has extensively practiced Hatha yoga and Vinyasa yoga, but her passion remains with Kundalini yoga and the power that this yoga has to transform. Allison has a special gift for connecting with people and making them feel at ease. With a gift of compassion, patience, and the desire to connect, Allison brings these gifts to her teaching style and to her students. “I only hope to make each student feel that yoga is not something for the elite, that it is a practice that we all can embrace and incorporate in our lives. Yoga is a practice that belongs to us all, and it is just a matter of finding what really resonates with each person. I wish for people to feel happier, live life, and to stop being so hard on themselves.” Allison’s goals related to teaching are to help people find relief, to overcome self-limiting thoughts, to transform, and to live extraordinary lives.
