Elena has been practicing yoga since 2013. In May of 2023, she completed her 9-month long 200 hr yoga teacher training led by Daniel Orlansky and Andrea Fotopoulos. Elena primarily practices Ashtanga/Vinyasa yoga, captured by the beauty, fluidity, and meditative qualities of these styles. Her personal practice is largely inspired by nature and she often practices outdoors when the weather allows.

Elena is currently studying herbalism at the Boston School of Herbal Studies as she continues to deepen her knowledge and understanding on the mind-body connection and the natural world.
