I’m DaLisa, an RYT-200 Yoga Instructor, Certified Ayurvedic Wellness Coach, fur mama and people person. A few of my favorite things are sun dresses, being barefoot in the grass, an organized kitchen and the Appalachian Mountains. I am also the Store Manager at The Boho Depot helping our community find goodies that help them connect to themselves and others through crystal healing, self help books, wellness products and fun, funky gifts & styles. My wellness journey started in my 20’s, but really I had struggled all my life with my health. My journey actually began when I became aware that even though all my issues were “normal” they didn’t have to be my reality. I wanted more for myself, my future, and my family. I wanted to feel like the best version of myself everyday, and to bring that feeling of wholeness out in other women. To be a source of education, empowerment and support - the stuff we didn’t learn or have access to growing up. I am a veteran 200-RYT of Ganesha's Yoga & Wellness Academy in 2017 and a 600 hr certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor, specializing in women’s health from the Shakti School of Ayurveda. I founded Blooming Luna Wellness in 2021 in my mission to educate, empower & support women on their life-long wellness journey. I work in-person and virtually one-on-one and host workshops and trainings with people of all ages and life-stages to help them feel their best, bring awareness to their unique needs, and take control of their health. Additionally, I offer private yoga as well as small group sessions catered to specific needs such as prenatal, anxiety & stress management and yoga for athletes. By reconnecting to our natural rhythms through yoga, breathwork, daily practices, movement & self care we can tap into the body’s inner wisdom and restore balance in our digestion, sleep, and mental health.

Music and sound have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My love for electronic music and growing up near Seattle exposed me to all sorts of music, and over the years, my fascination with sound has only deepened as I started to explore DJing in college. As a former high school and college basketball athlete, I’ve always been interested in the science of the body and health, which led me to pursue a career in nursing. I earned a bachelor's degree in public health from Fort Lewis College in Durango, CO, and later completed my BSN at Duke University. Before finding yoga, I was a competitive CrossFit athlete. But when I met my wife, Allie, I was strongly encouraged (forced) to attend her yoga classes. What started as a reluctant experience quickly turned into a realization that yoga and meditation were the missing links I had been searching for. As my strength, mobility, and overall well-being improved, I transitioned to practicing yoga exclusively for both physical and mental health. Through this journey, I became an avid meditator—an experience that was nothing short of life-changing. My deep dive into meditation naturally led me to the transformative power of sound. After experiencing my first sound meditation in Asheville with Billy Zanski of Skinny Beats Sound Shop, I was mesmerized by the power of gongs and how ambient music could shift energy and consciousness. Later in meditation I received confirmation that creating my own ambient soundscapes was something worth exploring and sharing with others.   Now, as a sound practitioner, I blend my love for electronic music with ancient healing instruments, creating unique and transcendental sound experiences. My sessions feature gongs (my absolute favorite), synthesizers, native flutes, guitar, the didgeridoo, and other powerful instruments to elevate the collective vibration of those who experience them. I've been fortunate to study under incredible mentors, including Billy Zanski, who introduced me to the world of sound healing and the didgeridoo, and Mike Tamburo, one of the most renowned gong players in the country. Additionally, I’ve worked one-on-one with Colin Allured, an incredible musician here in Winston-Salem, to dive into music theory, the guitar, and explore ancient vocalization techniques. Through sound, I’ve found my true passion—helping others shift their energy, expand their consciousness, and experience deep relaxation and healing. I invite you to join me in this journey, immerse yourself in the frequencies, and feel the profound effects of sound.
