A Message From
Tisha SamuEls, Founder
My hope for this to be a space where all can feel themselves and supported in their practice. This space was founded with the intention of not being another fitness yoga studio, rather a space to truly honor the depth of the practice.
As the owner, I also acknowledge that these practices are not my tradition. I am grateful for the teachers who have shared these practices with me and am humbled and honored to share them with you.
Podcast Interview
Check out Tisha’s interview on the Sticky Situation podcast where she talks yoga, how our practice can bring us together, living our practice and more.
It’s a lovely representation of her teaching, philosophy and the heart of the center

(she/Her)
I am Pittsburgh born and raised and live in the South Hills. I am a student and EYT-500 teacher of yoga and ayurveda for almost two decades and use the practices of movement and restorative yoga, pranayama, mantra, meditation and ayurveda in my classes. I have a grounded and intuitive nature that flows into my classes with a focus on creative, fluid movement, intelligent sequencing, chanting, music, stories, laughter and lots of love.
In my classes, you can expect a practice rooted in tradition. My training background has a focus in hatha, flow, functional movement, restorative yoga and ayurveda and embraces the importance of practicing movement, practicing rest and finding the balance of each. With regard to asana (shapes,) I teach a unique blend of approachable vinyasa, a sequence of movements/shapes synched with breath, designed to bring you into a moving meditation. I am also passionate about assisting students in finding the joy of restorative yoga and practicing rest to complement a more active, physical practice. Each student’s individual needs are always taken into consideration as we get to know one another, leading to a supportive, personalized practice.
I also helped to found the Joyful Liberation Collective, a grassroots 501c3 that holds healing spaces for historically excluded communities and social justice education for all.
You can typically find me out in the world walking my dogs, creating art, spending time in nature and spending time with family and friends.
What Our Students Are Saying
In practicing yoga with Tisha, I learned that yoga is a practice for the whole person, not just part of an exercise routine. The community she has cultivated is supportive, compassionate, and welcoming to all, and I am a stronger person (physically and otherwise) as a consequence of our work together. I can’t recommend this practice highly enough.
