Meet Your Resident Ohana Leaders
Alyssa Manny
Founder, CEO, BA - Kinesiology (CU - Boulder), M-ARCH (CU - Denver), 200 E-RYT, Vedic Meditation Padawan
Alyssa founded Ohana Yoga + Barre just over 4 years ago. She has lead a vast amount of yoga teacher trainings since then and has found each experience to be even greater than the last. "To me, training students to become teachers is all about opening doors... doors of perception, doors of awareness and doors of intuition as there is no 'one way' to do anything. Commit to the process of embodying the intersection between logic, morality, intellect and heart. And do it in a supportive environment that doesn't require your perfection, but encourages your curiosity."
Annie Dee Coyle
Annie has been an avid yoga practitioner and meditator for most of her life, from which she developed a deeply rooted passion for integrating a mindful approach into all movement endeavors. She began teaching yoga in 2016, and has helped facilitate several teacher trainings since. Her deep love for all things movement and dance led her to begin teaching Barre in 2020. She views Barre as not only a functional workout regimen, but knows it’s potential to be a potent embodiment practice through which one can tap into deepening layers of mind-body awareness and total vitality. Annie is Studio Manager of Ohana Yoga + Barre, and is currently undergoing a comprehensive equipment and mat Pilates training.

As a part of graduating from this training, you are required to complete five hours of practice teaching. You will upload these videos to Google Classroom under the respective assignment. A recording on your smart phone is perfect. In an optimal world, you would choose to practice teach with a "student" (like a partner, friend, etc.) so that you can receive real-time feedback. Second choice would be to simply teach yourself (ie. you're teaching out loud and moving at the same time). You will learn more by having an actual student present.

As we open each week on Google Classroom, you will see a list of assignments that generally correspond with the week's content. When you turn your homework in is completely up to you. That being said, we recommend keeping up with the homework to the best of your ability. A) Because there's a lot of it. B) Because it's easier to do the homework in tandem with the week's lectures as the content is relevant.
