Alyx Henigman

Headshot of Alyx

Alyx began her yoga journey alongside training as a professional dancer in Boston, MA – using yoga not only as a strengthening practice, but also as a retreat from performative movement and a space in which to focus on self care and awareness. During 2020, while in lockdown, she received her 200 hour training from Down Under School of Yoga after deciding that she wanted to deepen her knowledge of yoga and share the joy that she found within the practice with others.

She sees teaching and personal practice as a constantly evolving and growing symbiosis, and is always looking for ways to connect with people and self through yoga. As a massive nerd, she is always exploring new body pathways and anatomical information, which then trickle their way into her classes.

Alyx has recently moved from NYC, and is greatly enjoying soaking in the salt, fresh air, and sunshine here in Portland. She is also working as a dance artist, teacher, and choreographer for the local company, Little House Dance, and is a dedicated cat mom.
