Alex Rose - Yoga Therapist • IAYT Candidate • 500-RYT

Alex believes that every person deserves to feel safe in their body and empowered in their wellness journey regardless of diagnosis or limitation. As a Yoga Therapist • IAYT Candidate • 500-RYT, she specializes in supporting individuals living with neurological conditions and dysautonomia, helping them preserve strength and function, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with what is possible.

"Yoga has been a part of my life since 2001, when I signed up for a college yoga class simply to avoid taking running for my PE elective." What began as a practical decision became a lifelong journey of self-discovery and a deep fascination with the relationship between the nervous system, movement, and human resilience.

Her approach blends the timeless wisdom of yoga with contemporary understanding of anatomy, neuroscience, and functional movement. Every yoga therapy plan is individualized, meeting each person where they are and creating practical strategies that support lasting wellness.

Alex became a Certified Transformational Nutrition Coach in 2017 before earning her first 200-RYT in 2018 and her 500-RYT through Asheville Yoga Center in 2021. She completed a second 200-hour LYT Yoga® Method Teacher Training in 2022, further expanding her expertise in anatomy, biomechanics, and functional movement. In 2026, she completed both the Sattva Yoga Therapy® Program and an additional 300-hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training through the Prana Yoga Institute of Yoga & Holistic Health. She is currently an International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) Candidate.

While her primary focus is neurological conditions and dysautonomia, Alex also supports individuals living with autoimmune disease, chronic pain, recovery from illness or injury, and other complex health challenges through personalized yoga therapy that honors each person's unique experience.

Living with chronic illness herself has given Alex a deep appreciation for the physical, emotional, and practical realities of navigating a complex health condition. She approaches every client with empathy, curiosity, and respect, believing meaningful progress begins by meeting people exactly where they are.

"My goal is to help you calm your nervous system, preserve strength and function, and rediscover what's possible: one breath, one movement, and one step at a time."
