Elise Ferer

Instructor

Yoga Body Shop JC

Elise has been doing yoga since 2002 and teaching since completing her 200 hr certification in 2013 at Evolution Power Yoga in Lancaster, PA followed by Baptiste Level 1 and Level 2 in 2015 and 2016. She has taught both in studios and in gyms over the years in Central Pennsylvania and Philadelphia. While she first got interested in yoga for the physical benefits, she now loves the community created through yoga classes and loves being part of a studio to connect with other people. In her teaching, she brings curiosity about how the body responds to movement, time under tension, and the physical poses to create a stronger link between the mind and the body. In her classes, she aspires to challenge people to do more as well as to check in with their own bodies and move in a way that is best for them. She hopes that students in her classes see benefits on and off the mat by taking what they learn in class into their everyday lives.When she isn't doing yoga, she enjoys traveling, participating in several book clubs, and spending time with her niece and nephew.
