ALLIE MCLAUGHLIN

_{List 3 Non-yoga/Pilates facts about yourself:}

1. Completely obsessed with all foods containing avocado, especially guacamole.
2. I figured skated for almost 14 years (grew up in Canada so that makes sense!)
3. I am a Registered Dietitian with 2 degrees and have my own food blog. Shameless plug here: www. Balancedwithallie.com
4. I LOVE cheesy food jokes. (What did the sushi say to the bee? Wasssaaabbbeee??) These kinda jokes are the way to my heart!

 

_{How long have you been teaching? What made you start?}

It all started 5 years ago, when I was beyond stressed at work and started getting migraines, skin rashes, and was just plain unhappy. I went for a teacher training in Thailand (not knowing I would teach), and I have been teaching ever since.

 

_{What do you teach?}

Nothing makes me happier than a good old Vinyasa Flow. I can also teach Hatha Flow, Pre and post Natal yoga, and Ashtanga.

_{What can someone expect in your class?}

Jokes and possibly a cheesy quote at the end of the class (depends on the day)! You can also, expect sweat. I love to challenge people, and make them go places they never thought they could. Yes, you can.

 

_{What is your favourite thing to do besides work at Piloga?}

I love to experiment in the kitchen with new recipes. It’s one of the few activities besides yoga that clear my mind. Oh, and I am also an awesome rock climber (always looking for climbing buddies!)

 

_{Sweet or Salty?}

100% sweet. Chocolate and ice cream can be used against me if you need something. Ahah
