MEET EMILY CUMMINGS

Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Emily has been exploring movement ever since she first learned to walk. She trained rigorously to be a professional ballerina, dancing with both The San Francisco Ballet, and The Joffrey Ballet before the age of 18. She gave up her career in dance due to exhaustion and chronic injury.

Yoga came into her life at a time when she needed it the most. It helped her to heal not only the physical trauma from years of dance, but also through the magic of her practice, she began to heal emotional wounds and develop a much deeper and healthier relationship with herself. Emily received her RYT 200 from Yoga Dicha in Tulum Mexico under the Direction of Richelle Morgan and the Aligned Flow Method. She received her CPT 500 under the direction of Justine Malick and The Lab Pilates.

She currently teaches group Pilates Reformer and Yoga classes at Boheme Yoga DTLA, and DR Pilates, as well as works one on one with clients.

Emily offers personalized one-on-one intuitive guidance. In these hour long sessions, which are done virtually via Zoom, Emily uses Meditation, Tarot, and Intuitive practices to help you to uncover any blockages, and to teach you the tools needed to further your own healing and understanding of self.

In addition to teaching yoga Emily is an Artist, and Creative Director and especially loves any opportunity to combine her passions both in front of and behind the camera. She has developed content for brands like Mara The Label, and Set & Flow Yoga. Check it out here.

WHAT IS BODY LANGUAGE?

After several years spent developing her own unique teaching style, the idea for Body Language emerged. The practice is influenced heavily by Emily’s years of training as a dancer, and is based around the idea that our bodies each have an individual story to tell, and so much to teach us about ourselves if we are willing to listen. Body Language first premiered as a weekly class at Evoke Yoga. This 75 minute class is challenging and fun and pushes the boundaries of yoga and movement, asking the practitioner to fully embody their experience on their mat. The class is set to deep and sexy music that takes the students on a journey - combining Emily’s passions for yoga, expressive movement, and music.

Body Language as a brand now features a growing online class library, with various different teachings, tutorials, and full length classes - with new videos added weekly! Our membership option allows access to a growing online community, including unlimited access to the full library of classes and to live-streamed classes, events, and workshops.
