Background

Alyssa's journey through various passions and pursuits has been a testament to her versatility and resilience. Starting with ballet at the tender age of four, she swiftly transitioned to gymnastics due to her involvement in dance teams. Throughout high school, Alyssa explored different avenues, from running long distances in track and field to kickboxing classes at the gym. However, a setback during a race in 2006 led her to undergo physical therapy, sparking an interest in sports medicine.

Fresh out of high school at 17, Alyssa studied physical therapy. Yet, by 19, her path veered towards her other passion: music. Relocating to New York City, she delved into the study of music and sound engineering, earning a Bachelors of Fine Arts in 2016. However, the demands of her final semester left her feeling burnt out and in need of change.

In 2015, Alyssa stumbled upon Barre, instantly captivated by its grace and intensity. This newfound passion prompted her to undergo the Classic Barre Technique teacher training in 2016 under Carolyn McPherson. Equipped with newfound knowledge, she began teaching at various studios, igniting her journey as a Barre instructor. In 2018, Alyssa's adventurous spirit led her to Vienna, for love and a fresh start. She eventually started teaching at Body Concept in February 2020. 

Amidst the challenges of lock-down, Alyssa's innovative spirit flourished, giving rise to Resonate Body Motion, a fusion of sound healing, movement, and music. Inspired by her background as a DJ and her passion for movement, Resonate Body became a means of connecting people in a transformative experience.

As Alyssa's movement journey unfolded, so did her desire to share her knowledge and method with others. Fueled by a desire to empower others and expand the reach of her method, Alyssa embarked on the journey of developing a plan to train future teachers.

On her own time Alyssa continues to practice yoga: ashtanga, hatha, rocket yoga, and Bikram yoga. But primarily her focus goes to barre, Pilates, reformer, mobility, calisthenics and movement. The ongoing practice of various fitness sports keeps her classes innovative. 

Now, Alyssa's mission is clear: to impart her years of experience and wisdom to aspiring instructors, nurturing a new generation of teachers. Through her training program, she aims to foster a community of passionate and skilled individuals who will continue to innovate and inspire in their own unique ways.
