Bio
Keisha Bolden’s journey to Yoga and Pilates began as a result of her background as a professional dancer and choreographer. Keisha Bolden began studying yoga 12 years ago and has studied Hatha, Bikram, Vinyasa, and Ashtanga. She has been practicing Pilates for 6 years. Keisha has studied as the student of master teachers, Swami Mahadevananda, Swami Sivaswaroopananda, Bhooma Chaitanya, and Ted Ryan.
In class, Keisha encourages clients to challenge themselves while maintaining purity and simplicity of movement. Her teaching style is infused with positive energy, honesty, and inspirational flow. Students are taught to focus inward and to develop ultimate trust for their bodies. Keisha believes that there is a Yoga for everyone and encourages students to find their comfort level within each pose.
In February of 2008, Keisha was blessed with the opportunity to live, study and teach yoga in India for 6 months. In addition to joining the teaching staff at the Sivananda Vedanta Ashram, Keisha managed the ashram’s Karma Yoga program. This position is what greatly inspired Keisha to continue her work in Karma Yoga.
During her classes and sessions, Keisha draws from different disciplines to help clients achieve their personal goals. Her background in dance and choreography has been an important resource in exploring the movement and structure of the human body. Specializing in Yoga, Pilates, and Spin, Keisha loves being able to offer options that are tailor made for the individual. She enjoys teaching to all ages, shapes, and sizes throughout the East Coast.
When she's not teaching, Keisha enjoys blogging about health and wellness.
