Teaches at BellaVita: Fitness & Wellness

Emily is a certified Yoga and Zumba Instructor, personal trainer, lover of fun, and all-around incurable optimist. Though she grew up in a town with one stoplight, she moved to NYC at 18 and now holds a BFA in Drama from New York University, which she received at 20. It was her passion for theater and dance that led her to yoga in her teens following a dance injury. She knew that fitness had to be delivered in a safer, more holistic manner, and now, strives to do just that. As a teacher at many schools and gyms around the city, including a number of nonprofit organizations who provide free classes to low-income youth, Emily is fascinated by yoga's ability to bring calm and self-awareness in this crazy New York environment. Yoga has incredible fitness benefits, and the manner in which it can help the mind grow is of great interest to her as well.
