ABOUT


Alexandra Holmes, M.S., C-IAYT, is a Philippine born and Philadelphia based yoga therapist. Drawing from her background as a professional dancer and extensive education in yoga, anatomy, & movement, Alex's classes have been described by her students as "masterful".

With over two decades of experience, she skillfully combines biomechanics, breath guidance, and her personal understanding of yoga philosophy. This, combined with her creative and challenging sequences, make her classes some of the most sought after in the Philadelphia area. Alex has a thriving private practice and is a highly regarded yoga educator. Her students say they always leave her classes with new insights and improved wellbeing.

In 2003, Alex faced a brief but involved encounter with ovarian cancer. Being a survivor is what drives her desire to help people feel more connected, empowered, and at ease in their bodies. When she isn't teaching, she enjoys spending time with her husband and 2 energetic kids. She loves mangoes, the beach, cooking with friends, and game night.

Testimonials


"Strong but gentle, firm yet soft, Alex embodies the yogic discipline of a “samatvam” or evenness. She is able to bring both the strength of her physical practice and the understanding and patience of a teacher to every class. Her knowledge of the body and its mechanics, and her personalized approach to her students, means that each class is customized to your unique anatomy. When you become her student, you don’t just gain an instructor, you gain a mentor who is truly invested in you and helps you realize your true capabilities."

-Bob Healy

"Take Alex’s class. If you fail to sense her absolute devotion to the practice as both teacher and student you have stumbled into the wrong room. Her space is saturated with it. "

-Johnathan Disckstein, Ph.D

"Alex’s knowledge of functional anatomy and kinesiology make her a movement specialist of the highest order. She sets a strong foundation for the mind-muscle connection; the cerebral to the physical. I came to her with a hypermobility diagnosis and some poses I wanted to achieve. In just over a year, she has changed the course of my practice. I am now better able to distinguish body sensations during complex movements and can better keep my body injury free thanks to her tutelage of my mind-body connection. "

-Jared Liebman, M.D.
