About Me
Hi, I’m Elizabeth Henrichsen
I am a classically trained Yoga teacher, credentialed by the Yoga Certification Board of the Government of India. I studied traditional Hatha Yoga at renowned institutions under respected teachers, with a deep focus on the authentic roots and philosophy of traditional Yoga.
Through an integrative approach, I aim to unite the ancient wisdoms of Yoga and Ayurveda to support balance, healing and well-being in today’s world.
Yoga “found” me in 2004, during a time when I was juggling the demands of family and work with a “harder, faster, stronger” mindset. Nearly a decade later, chronic stress caught up with me—I landed in the hospital twice in just two weeks. That wake-up call became a blessing, ultimately leading me to the foothills of the Himalayas, where I immersed myself in the deeper teachings of Yoga. It was there that I was also introduced to the healing science of Ayurveda.
Since then, I’ve returned to India multiple times, each journey deepening my understanding and practice. I bring back practical wisdom, tools, and insights rooted in traditional Yoga, Yoga Therapy, and Ayurveda to support my students and clients in meaningful ways.
Education is at the heart of what I do. I share this passion by leading Yoga Teacher Training Courses and retreats both in the U.S. and internationally.
