Elisha Schwabauer

Meet Elisha.

Elisha has been practicing meditation and yoga for over 20 years.

The first time she sat down to meditate was by trying Trataka, or candle gazing as a way to focus the mind. After that she learned Shambhala meditation while at Naropa University. Elisha is also a Chopra-certified Primordial Sound Meditation Instructor.

Elisha started practicing yoga in 2001. Her first introduction was to Ashtanga Yoga; she loved how calm her mind felt afterward. She found this type of yoga to be deeply satisfying because it was a way to exercise her athletic background into blending the spiritual components woven by linking the breath with movement. She knew she wanted to learn how to teach yoga from that moment forward. 

In 2008 she graduated with a BA from Naropa University's Traditional Eastern Arts program, with an emphasis on Yoga Teacher Training by completing a 1000-hour Yoga Teacher Training program. Elisha is inspired to teach yoga as a way to help others deepen their spiritual connection, calm their minds, and strengthen their bodies.
