Adelina is a first generation American Armenian woman who grew up between the duality of two cultures, identities and personas. She is an intentional, whole hearted healer, lover, community collaborator, dancer, business woman, visionary, artist, writer, foodie, small business champion, conscious consumer, amateur photographer, advocate, adventurer, mother nature enthusiast. Her favorite hobby is to explore the world—so far 22 countries and counting.

Traveling through life she came to yoga in the way of a gift to be. in Union Yoga studio in 2010. Over the years her challenge was not her  physical ability but rather the mental resistance to push herself to physically practice. Until one day her body was no longer interested in staying within the physical limitations her mind had drawn. Exhausted, it was then that she truly started my yoga practice, and her teacher training. Through yoga, her healing warrior journey has evolved into a lifestyle practice that has guided her back to my authentic self, into union with her body, her true light and essence as a spiritual person.

Her whole life has prepared her for this dharma: to help people, including herself, heal. Through yoga, meditation and life coaching, with support and guidance both on and off the mat, Adelina’s intention is to create an awakening space to sit and work through the muddy parts of your story that your body has been holding, and to foster a sense of love and belonging within yourself. Her teaching stems from her own, deep personal work, years of practice and training, and ever expanding healing wisdom that she wishes to share. The time you invest on your mat is your road map back to your true self and Adelina is here to support you on that journey.
