Emily Birmingham
Emily Bermingham is a 600-hour certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor, Moon Circle Facilitator, Yoga
Teacher (RYT 200, RCYT), and Sociology Professor, currently completing her 300-hour advanced yoga
teacher training. She is trained in trauma-informed yoga, vinyasa, hatha, restorative, and children’s yoga,
and also facilitates moon circles that foster connection, reflection, and healing.
Emily’s own journey with yoga and Ayurveda has been profoundly transformative. These practices
supported her in recovering from injury and illness, helping her rediscover strength, balance, and vitality.
In her teaching, Emily weaves together yoga philosophy, mindfulness, and Ayurvedic principles to create
meaningful, heart-centered experiences. Her approach emphasizes compassion, curiosity, and the belief
that self-care is both personal and collective — a form of community care.
As a teacher, mother, and military spouse, Emily’s work is grounded in presence, resilience, and
authenticity. She strives to hold space where others feel safe, seen, and nourished — leaving each practice
with a sense of grounding, renewal, and connection.
