Personal History: 

Anastasia began her own yoga practice more than a decade ago, in an attempt to bring health and balance into her own life. Since then, she has developed techniques for combining exercise and nutrition in a way that benefits body, mind and spirit. She has shared those techniques with her friends, family and students, elevating the way they feel, improving the way they look and increasing their confidence and a sense of overall well–being. As demand for her time and expertise grew, Anastasia created YogaPulse™, a life–changing fitness and nutrition program that people can use at home (or anywhere) to get the results from her teachings.

Anastasia is fortunate to have studied with many world–famous yoga teachers. Her credentials include multiple certifications to teach various forms of yoga. She is also a certified nutritional consultant. She holds a BA in journalism from New York University a master's degree in natural health from Clayton College and is currently working towards a Ph.D. in nutrition. As a natural health writer, Anastasia has had multiple articles published online and in various magazines.

As Anastasia's teaching evolved and YogaPulse™ method deepened, her style progressed to be more alignment–oriented and more connected to the energy flow in the body.
