Allie Hall

Yoga teacher, high school educator, occasional poet, and full-time realist with tight hamstrings. Annie Hall is not the 1977 film character, but she is someone who can deliver a headstand and a Shakespeare monologue with equal flair. A certified 200-hour yoga teacher, high school English educator, and self-appointed chai connoisseur, Annie blends ancient wisdom with modern wit in everything she does—whether on the mat or in the classroom. Her teaching style is less about touching your toes and more about touching base with your nervous system. Expect a mix of movement, breath, and the occasional off-topic literary reference. (“The hips, like Iago, don’t lie.”)

From chalkboards to chakras

Based in the Pacific Northwest, Annie spent over a decade teaching teenagers how to read between the lines—before she realized her own life needed a little more breath and a lot less burnout. So she did what any slightly frazzled, spiritually curious mom would do: booked a one-way flight to Rishikesh, India, and signed up for an intensive 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. She went for the flexibility and came back with a new life purpose (and better posture).

What she teaches (and Preaches)

Annie teaches Vinyasa, Hatha, and "Just-Breathe-and-Stop-Yelling-at-Yourself" Yoga. Her classes are trauma-informed, beginner-friendly, and full of humor. She believes yoga is for everybody (and every body), especially those who feel too tired, too busy, or too skeptical to even try it. If you're looking for incense-burning, Instagram-perfect yoga—Annie might not be your girl. But if you're into slow, smart movement, real talk, and playlists that include both Krishna Das and Fleetwood Mac, you’ll fit right in.

Fun facts

• She has taught over 1,200 students how to write a five-paragraph essay, and at least 14 people how to hold Crow Pose without falling on their faces.
• Once ate too much dal in Rishikesh and had a mild enlightenment moment in a hammock.
• Lives with her partner, two children, one dog, and a rotating cast of forgotten laundry piles.
• Believes savasana is a sacred state, and caffeine is a legitimate coping mechanism.

Where to find her

Annie teaches online and in-person classes under Annie Hall Yoga, offers workshops on yoga for educators, and occasionally blogs about the intersection of mindfulness, motherhood, and midlife meltdowns. When she’s not on the mat or in a staff meeting, she’s probably reading something she’ll never finish or organizing her spice rack as a form of therapy. She writes the way she teaches: with heart, humor, and a healthy suspicion of perfectionism.
