Abby Schiff

Yoga (Technique)

Abby Schiff in position at A2D!Abby Schiff has always loved dance, taking classes and performing throughout her youth and college. In 2004, she was introduced to yoga as an alternative makeup for a missed dance class at a local studio and immediately became hooked.

After having her third child, Schiff gave up her stressful job as a commercial real estate lawyer and focused her efforts on her yoga practice as well as becoming trained and certified so she could teach.

Schiff’s training includes a 108-hour Anusara Yoga Immersion Certification with Michelle Synnestvedt, a Vinyasa Flow Teacher Training at Kripalu with Shiva Rea, as well as Anusara Prenatal Teacher Training with Sue Elkind.

Schiff continues to develop her teaching style, using a combination of alignment techniques with the beauty of flow by taking workshops with teachers who inspire her-David Williams, Corina Benner, Yoganand Michael Carroll, Simon Park and her favorite — Seane Corn, and also by practicing yoga on a daily basis.

To enhance her knowledge, she has also recently earned a teaching certification from Balanced Body University in Pilates Reformer and Movement Principles.
