Founder and CEO of YogaHub, Ali is a 500-hour Yoga Alliance Certified Instructor and ranked as the number one yoga coach in Massachusetts by Coachup.com.
With a background in synchronized skating and dance, Ali started practicing yoga in college out of a love for movement and fitness. She graduated from Northeastern University in 2012, and began her search for purpose. Her yoga studies satisfied a deep longing for meaning in life, and so she parted from a promising bartending career to quench her thirst for enlightenment. After she completed her initial yoga teachers’ certification course in 2013, she started leading classes and helping students build their own practice.
Raised by a family of entrepreneurs, Ali was always looking for ways to solve problems and make life better. In witnessing the rapid growth of the yoga industry, she saw that something was fundamentally broken and she began her quest to improve standards. In 2015, she Tweeted Mayor Marty Walsh about managing the yoga program out of a new mixed-use space, he replied, and YogaHub was born.
In 2017, Ali traveled to India for two months and completed a 300-hour advanced training course in the yoga capital of the world, Rishikesh. What began as a physical practice right in her hometown of Lexington, MA, started taking root as a deep spiritual practice and lifestyle philosophy that would influence every aspect of her being. Yoga taught Ali how to navigate the stressful turmoil of starting and running a business, and manage the chaos that comes along with a yoga teacher’s schedule. Ali aims to impart this knowledge upon students, so that they may experience happiness and fulfillment on a day to day basis.
In her quest to bring yoga everywhere, Ali has partnered with a number of organizations, including the Boston Public Health Commission, Museum of Science, Boston Public Library, Asics, Patagonia, and Marriott, Hyatt, and InterContinental Hotels. In 2018, she collaborated with Yoga for Humanity to create Boston’s largest Yoga Day celebration in Copley Square, and led a class with over 300 students in attendance.
Ali currently lives in Boston, where she is building YogaHub, teaching private lessons, and leading group classes. When she’s not on her yoga mat, you can find her rollerblading on the Esplanade or salsa dancing.
