Aiyesha founded Peaceful Rock Yoga in 2009 ; a unique approach - influenced by yoga, pilates, and AcroYoga - to complement rock climbing, bouldering, and facilitate outdoor exploration.

​

Aiyesha first started practicing yoga at age 10 and was introduced to climbing, with her brother, at age 15 . She lead her first classes in Spanish while living abroad in Panama and Mexico in 2004 and 2007, finally  making the decision to get certified in 2009 through YogaWorks in NYC.

​

Guided by a philosophy of finding balance, Aiyesha focuses on conditioning the body and breath for endurance, building strength through functional movements with good alignment, and productive physical/mental recovery time. 

​

Combining elements of many styles, her classes are detailed, instructive, strong, calming, and genuine. She speaks from the heart and always tries to encourage others to do the same.
