Awaken & Move LLC is a holistic wellness company founded by certified yoga teacher, sound healing practitioner, and Ayurveda wellness guide Alisia Michelle. The business is rooted in yoga, mindfulness, and intentional healing, offering accessible practices that support physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Its mission is to empower individuals to cultivate balance, resilience, and inner abundance through thoughtfully designed experiences that serve both personal and community transformation.

With a background in international relations and human rights, Alisia has supported global practitioners working in high-stress environments—experience that strengthened her understanding of resilience and people-centered care. She integrates these principles into her yoga offerings by fostering safe, inclusive, and mindful spaces for students of all backgrounds. She is additionally trained in psychosocial resilience through the KonTerra Group, equipping her to facilitate trauma-informed, emotionally supportive practices grounded in mindfulness and nervous-system regulation.

Awaken & Move LLC offers yoga classes, sound healing, Ayurveda-based wellness guidance, workshops, and digital products, all centered around accessible, mindful, and beginner-friendly wellness. Awaken & Move also supports communities in D.C., Baltimore and beyond with donation-based yoga classes for meaningful social causes.
