Elise is thrilled to be joining the exhale team in Santa Monica. A native of New York City, Elise spent much of her childhood in the Washington D.C. area where she received her classical dance training as a principal dancer with the Virginia Ballet Company. She attended the College of William and Mary in Virginia, where she graduated with a double major in History and Theater. Elise has always embraced dance and movement as an amazing means of self expression. She continued her training in New York City, where she spent several years as an actor, enjoying a broad career ranging from Shakespeare to Broadway national tours and television. It was in Manhattan that she was introduced to yoga, and embraced a rigorous practice of Vinyasa flow.
Elise received her yoga certification from Sonic Yoga in New York City, where she enjoyed a permanent teaching position. So inspired to continue to grow in her mind/body connection, Elise began studying Core Fusion with Fred DeVito and Elisabeth Halfpapp in New York City. She immediately loved the discipline and began her intensive training. She loves teaching and the opportunity it provides to motivate people to find their inner strength, and to energize their joy of life through physical and mental fitness. She especially loves being inspired by her students on a daily basis.
