Elena Bradford, Owner/Yoga Instructor/Sound Healer
Elena is the creator and owner of Half Moon Studio which opened in late 2017. She is RYT certified, Aerial yoga certified and certified in Sound Healing through The Sound Healer’s Academy in Los Angeles. She has also completed trainings in functional anatomy and functional movement and is currently completing an in-depth teacher training on the nervous system and restorative yoga.
She has been passionate about optimal physical health since her first job as a water aerobics instructor at age 18.
“In my early days of yoga, I was more focused on the physical fitness benefits. As time went on, I deepened my practice through meditation, breath work and discovering the connection between the mind and body. That’s when I realized the many layers of healing yoga has to offer. I incorporate these layers in all of my classes.”
“As I have aged, I understand the importance of cross training. I practice and offer classes ranging from mobility drills, functional movement and balance work to restorative yoga and sound healing.”
“The importance of feeding our nervous system has just as much value as the physical fitness of our bodies. This beautifully complex, multi-faceted machine that takes us through life needs maintenance and nurturing. It’s all about balance within our minds and our bodies!”
Elena has coupled the ancient teachings of yoga with active stretch, isometric drills, mobility exercises and functional movement which has enabled her to develop unique class styles for optimal muscle and joint health. While also offering restorative yoga and sound healing to feed our nervous system and decrease stress bringing internal harmony and balance.
She has a very strong and dedicated self-practice. Through her continuing yoga education, she is able to provide new ideas to keep her classes fresh and engaging.
By offering sound healing sessions, you have the option to receive healing on a cellular level once a week or privately!
