About Allie
Allie Redshaw is a Yoga Alliance certified registered yoga teacher with a passion for inclusion & disability advocacy. In addition to facilitating yoga, she is a professional chef (of Sumac Supper Club) and a competitive paraclimber with Team USA.  She began practicing yoga as a modality of healing and recovery from a traumatic kitchen injury that resulted in the amputation of her right hand. She was pregnant during this tremendous loss, and the passive movement and adaptations of a consistent yogic practice helped her find a home in her body again.  She believes that breathing together and creating shapes with our bodies cultivates the most authentic connection with others and empowers us to support the humanness  of one another.  She currently facilitates movement at Hot Yoga Charlottesville as well as the Contemplative Sciences Center at UVA and is a Lululemon Ambassador.  She most recently started a non-profit called Adapting Together where two limb different athletes and her are creating community for women with disabilities and bringing them into communal spaces to practice yoga.
