For two decades, I have been on a journey of healing myself in body, mind and spirit. I am now taking my first-hand experiences and transformations, as well as the holistic Japanese wellness principles instilled in me growing up, and putting all they’ve taught me about change, discomfort, overcoming, and achieving together to support you on your own transformational journey.

What others have to say

  • Sarah says: Alice brings an extraordinary depth of knowledge and experience to her practice, drawing on diverse schools of thought to create a truly holistic approach. Her wisdom and intuition are apparent in every interaction, providing insights that are both profound and immediately applicable. What sets Alice apart is how she integrates her extensive expertise with her real-life experiences as a successful entrepreneur and an incredible mom. This blend of wisdom, modern practicality, and personal warmth makes her teachings not only powerful but also relatable and grounded in reality. Alice's approach is light-hearted yet impactful, making every encounter enjoyable and enriching. She has a unique ability to make complex concepts accessible and to inspire changes that genuinely improve your well-being. She herself has undergone impressive feats of personal transformation so her guidance comes from a place of experience. She is not just a teacher; she is a transformative (and fun) presence in the lives of those she touches.

  • Anita says: Having the opportunity to work with Alice, gain insights into the way she views life and manifests dreams, desires, and goals is a gift I will carry throughout the rest of my life. Embarking on this life-coaching work, I struggled to find balance and confidence, while creating the life I truly want. I must say, I had an idea that a life-coach was someone who would yell at me, or whip me into shape! Her kindness and compassion, mixed with gentle yet effective accountability was game changing for me. I literally started to see changes and shifts the week we started working together! I have always seen myself as a creative, free spirit who forged my own path. I was grateful that Alice was able to meet me exactly where I was, while pushing me a little closer towards my dreams and goals.

  • Alexia says: I’ve partnered with Alice to host community workshops focused on healing the nervous system. Alice is one of the most passionate and dedicated individuals I’ve ever worked with, bringing a unique blend of expertise and personal experience to everything she does. Her mastery of diverse healing modalities, such as yoga and sound healing, combined with her authentic, relatable approach, creates an experience that is both transformative and deeply meaningful. If you’re seeking a compassionate guide to support you on your journey toward unlocking your highest potential, I cannot recommend Alice enough. She truly has a magical presence that inspires and empowers.

  • Jane says: We hired Alice to come to our staff retreat event. We are a community mental health non-profit agency and this year we were very lucky to be able to do an event for our staff where the focus was our self-care and wellbeing. Alice led our group in a wonderful yoga session where she was very mindful of the all-level nature of our group. Some of our staff had never practiced yoga before and were very much beginners. The yoga session was a total success and our staff truly enjoyed it. Later in the day Alice also led our group in a Sound Bath meditation. The sound bath was so relaxing and calming, and a very unique experience. Once again our staff were completely blown away and shared how much they appreciated being able to be a part of both the yoga and sound bath sessions. Our team had a great day and it was a nice break from work, and most importantly it was so much fun! Thank you Alice, we hope to invite you to our next event in the future!

  • Kyle says: I’ve been working with Alice on and off the yoga mat for the past 5 years. I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with some amazing facilitators over the years and would put Alice at the top – best of the best. Where a lot of the wellness spaces in Southern California are full of spiritual bypassing and performative allyship; Alice and her work defy those norms; she meets each client where they are at and has an approach to wellness that is rooted in inclusivity and equality. I am always eager to recommend Alice to friends and acquaintances and look forward to personally continuing to work with her.

  • Will says: Alice is the type of mentor that has both the ability to compassionately heal but strongly inspire at the same time. Well versed in every aspect of wellness she leads by example with integrity, vulnerability and strength. Whether it’s a business meeting or a reiki session, Alice has a special way of pushing you to realize your own power. You will be met with empathy, groundedness and intention no matter the challenge with Alice on your side.

  • Jen says: I first met Alice ten years ago at the La Brea Modo Studio and later had the opportunity to practice with her at Modo Venice. Alice quickly became one of my favorite yoga instructors, thanks to her calming presence, inviting energy, and emphasis on breathwork. She has a unique ability to make everyone feel at home in the studio. I experienced my first sound bath with her on New Year's Eve many years ago, and she patiently explained the process and what to expect. It was a transformative experience, and I still have the quote from that night displayed in my apartment. On a personal note, Alice is an exceptional listener who offers thoughtful suggestions and feedback. I am continually inspired by how she embodies the principles of yoga and spiritual practice in her daily life.

  • David says: For over six years, I have sought out Alice's classes and instruction, eagerly signing up for as many additional “healing modalities” as I can. Participating in this beautiful exchange of energy not only transforms my experience but also deepens my connection to my practice and the community. I can't fully articulate the reasons behind the impact of my practice on my life; instructors like Alice play a crucial role in my journey, helping me uncover new layers of self-discovery along the way.

  • Naomi says: When I started coming to yoga, it was at an all-time mental low. I knew I had to try something new in the hopes of starting the journey to heal my body and mind.  And that's where Alice enters the picture. An absolute ray of light, a swath of positive energy, a warm smile who so fearlessly - class after class - put her vulnerability out on display with abandon. I left her classes feeling stronger, more empowered, and more centered. She very clearly feels with her whole being, and that combined with truly kind and genuinely good intentions really changed the direction of many of my days. It was the first time in a workout class that I felt safe.
