Meet Ella

I am a tea enthusiast, nature lover and devoted sister. My love of the outdoors began in my own backyard in South Carolina where I spent hours swimming in the creek, climbing trees and playing with my three sisters.  In nature I learned the joy of moving; I believe our bodies (mind and spirit too) are capable of incredible changes, growth, playful action, and creation. My family is a strong community; supportive, understanding and encouraging.  I embody these same principles while teaching.

I have been teaching yoga and pilates in philly for ten years. i work with a broad population, from those who have never stepped foot on a yoga mat or into a Pilates class, to expecting mothers, families, and the experienced mind-body practitioner.
