About Denisha

Yoga Therapist & Meditation Teacher + Wellness Entrepreneur

My name is Denisha and I am the owner and founder of Yoga Nisha, a wellness space where all are welcome and encouraged to embrace self. My mission is to provide a diverse group of individuals a safe space to have unique experiences that promote mindfulness, empowerment, and self-exploration.

I believe that everyone should make time for themselves. Connection to one's mind, body and soul is the key to self-healing. Creating diverse wellness spaces is important to me as current wellness spaces lack diversity and resources to promote inclusivity. It’s time to shift wellness spaces, to promote mental and physical well-being for all.

My love for Yoga did not start right away, it was not until I started teaching yoga that I realized the yogic principles and found connection through conscious breathing, meditation, asanas (postures), and self-awareness. When I was able to realize the value of self-reflection I was able to teach others. 

I am a wife, Mama of 5 and Intervention Specialist. I love children, a good book and travel. Movement and meditation fuels my soul. I have been meditating consistently for many years. There is no better way to start my day! I love to connect with people about all topics, hear other points of views as well as share mine. I love to celebrate my wins and learn from my challenges.
