MEET ALLIE:
Alison, also known as Allie, is a proud Canadian who has been living in Dubai for over 11 years. She is a 6 foot-tall ‘kid’ who loves to make individuals laugh and help them let go of their serious side. You can expect to smile, laugh, and have just plain fun with each one of her classes.
.
Allie wasn’t always a yoga teacher. She is actually a Registered Dietitian from Canada with a Masters in Public Health in community nutrition. After practicing yoga for many years, Allie finally decided to take her 200-hour Vinyasa Teacher training in Thailand. She quickly realized how yoga can help put ‘hardships’ into perspective and the stress melted away. Allie went on to complete her 300-hour Hatha, yin yoga, pre and post- natal teach trainings. After having two beautiful children, Allie decided to expand her knowledge further to become a Pilates and Barre Teacher (Reformer and Mat) and become a certified personal trainer and obtained her Diploma in Swedish Massage.
She has been recently chosen as an Adidas Ambassador representing the yoga community in Dubai and participating in community events on a monthly basis. Allie combines both her nutrition education and yoga, mobility, and personal training knowledge to promote a holistic approach to living.
MEET NONO:
Noelle (NoNo) hails from the USA where she inherited her passion for fitness and performance from her mother. I guess you can say, “she got it from her Mama!” Following in her footsteps, NoNo pursued her dreams with unwavering determination. Throughout her 17-year career as a professional performer and dancer, she acquired a collection of impressive accolades and experiences working with world-renowned directors, producers, celebrity artists, and top production shows. However, alongside these glamorous achievements, NoNo also accumulated her fair share of battle scars. From gracing the stage in over 6,000 shows and countless events to overcoming injuries and rigorous rehabilitation after surgeries - maintaining peak physical condition was paramount to her career.
​
It was a delicate balancing act between glamour and grit! During these physical and mental challenges, NoNo gained a deeper appreciation and fascination for her body's extraordinary capabilities and potential. Drawing upon her background in entertainment and her commitment to continuous learning, NoNo made a seamless transition into the fitness world, ready to inspire others to embrace their own exploration of transformation.
NoNo began her journey as a barre instructor in Las Vegas back in 2009, with the launch of the first Pure Barre studio in the region. Since then, she has been captivated by the burn and its transformative effects.
Additionally, Noelle discovered the profound impact of her yoga practice, inspiring her to dive in deeper through various teacher training courses in power yoga, yin yoga, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing. NoNo infuses every endeavour with high vibes and infectious enthusiasm. She's eager to share her passion and play a pivotal role in raising the BARRE of excellence in the fitness industry!
