my philosophy
Shine True.
Intuition. You know the feeling. When you feel most at ease, naturally moving through the world, hold fast to this.
Love Hard.
Fearless love and compassion for all, babes, especially you.
Be Plenty.
Ain't nobody you need to impress, you are more than enough.
testimonials
"Annaliese has an infectious quality about her. It is light and strength. Joy and calm. Power and peacefulness. Her dedication to the practice permeates her teaching, and beautiful classes full of creativity, conscientious design, athleticism, and balance are what emerge! She is a strong leader who simultaneously empowers her students to make the best choices for their own experiences. I leave her classes feeling happy and vibrant, and I look forward to continuing to learn from her."
-Briana Grantswag, Public Student, OM Factory
"Over the past 2 years, I've had the pleasure of building my fitness routine around weekly Yoga with Annaliese. Her class is as refreshingly fun as it is physically challenging, making it a MUST do every week. Annaliese evolves with her students while reinforcing important tenets of our practice making for tangible growth with every class. Most of all, her passion and energy create such a warm and inviting vibe. Not to mention, she has fantastic taste in music..."
-Billy Everett, TripleLift
"I will never forget attempting a headstand and being terrified of falling, but Annaliese was right behind me, kindly telling me ‘You got this’. As soon as I heard those words, and knew she was there, my legs straightened and I was doing a pose I always shied away from. Her love for the practice, for her students, and her incredible music made an hour lesson go by way too quickly. She teaches the kind of class that leaves you feeling empowered and chill at the same time. Annaliese always brings life into her lessons and workshops. I wish there were more yoga instructors like Annaliese and I am so beyond lucky to have stumbled upon her class and I am so happy I still get to be a part of her fun and challenging workshops."

"I love taking Annaliese's class because she consistently delivers a high-energy, challenging while encouraging, intelligent sequence. As a fellow yoga teacher, I love observing the flow of her classes and how she deliberately sequences her postures. The best part of her class is her supportive, knowledgeable and positive guidance throughout that makes her classes feel like a community working with her to achieve something special each time."
