Gabrielle Ahlstrom (Gaby)

I have been practicing yoga for over ten years. Born and raised in Chicago, I got through the bitter winters at my local hot yoga studio. An avid sailor, I found solace in the slower pace as well as strength training for my racing. 

I moved to San Diego in January of 2023 and through my yoga practice found a community in which I could call home. Moving without a steady job and home was not something I intended on, but it was through my yoga practice that I found the strength and tenacity to make the city my own. Shortly after moving I enrolled in a 200 hour training that allowed me to grow through my practice, create lifelong friendships, and find my place in a new city. 

I am mainly trained in vinyasa, 26+2, and yin yoga, but love to create blended versions through viniyoga. I am able to teach on the fly and work with all abilities and bodies creating flows and sequences that fit the individual needs of each of my many students. I recently completed my 500-Hour Teacher Training certification. 

When not in the studio, you can find me by the water, in my art studio, cooking, and spending time with my cat.
