Running and swimming competitively for years, teaching elementary school, and chasing my 3 young kids around led me to my first yoga class about 10 years ago. I was constantly on the go and not very present for myself or those around me.  Something in me kept bringing me back to my mat. I was beginning to become more aware of how yoga was the magic connection of the mind, body, and soul.  Meditative breath work, focusing on strengthening postures, and enjoying the benefits of a restful savasana taught me how to steady myself on and off the mat. I kept going to yoga classes because I felt a shift after each class and I wanted and needed to keep feeling good! I was eager to deepen my practice and knowledge even further, therefore I completed my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training in 2022 and have been teaching all levels vinyasa flow yoga ever since!  In addition to teaching adults yoga, I am also a certified children's yoga instructor.  I love guiding people of all ages on their yoga journeys and meeting them wherever they are at on their mats!

Isabella Langan is a certified yoga teacher with a 200-hour vinyasa certification, a 100-hour yin yoga training through Lifetime, and additional training in the Alva Method, which blends sound healing, breathwork, energy work, and neuro-linguistic programming. She is also trained in Nada yoga and Reiki. She came to yoga during a time of major life change, and it became a steady path back to self-love, clarity, and connection. Yoga gave her a way to return to herself, especially when life felt heavy or uncertain. That experience is what inspires her to teach. Isabella shares this practice because she wants others to feel what she found: ease in the body, peace in the mind, and a deep sense of trust in their own inner path. Her classes are gentle, grounding, and intuitive. She offers space for students to slow down, reconnect, and feel at home within themselves.

Raika is an E-RYT and completed her 200-hour teacher training in 2016 with the New School of Yogic Arts at Coolidge Corner Yoga. She also completed Restorative Yoga training in 2019 and Yin Yoga training in 2023. Through teacher training, Raika discovered the power of self-exploration with the support of a gracious and loving community. Yoga has taught her how to explore her perceived physical and mental limitations as well as to appreciate the beauty of being a student. Her teaching encourages her students to discover the power of self-exploration through breath and movement. Raika's classes are shaped by her compassionate touch and are characterized by a balance of restorative poses and mindful vinyasa movement. She encourages a slower pace and longer holds so that students can incorporate attention to alignment and integrity in the asanas. Raika also incorporates restorative or gentle yoga poses to encourage students to relax and renew, as time on the mat is the truest form of self-care.

I started practicing yoga about 10 years ago. After recently completing my yoga teacher training, I unexpectedly discovered a love for teaching. I began subbing in the Boston area and eventually found your way to Tree Yoga. I'm passionate about evolving in my practice and am excited to share it with others.
