ABOUT THE HOST:

Vanisha is a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) and resides in Austin, TX. She began her yoga journey in 2017 during her 1L year at Georgetown Law. The first year of law school is often the most challenging and can be a gateway to the bad habits that are prevalent among legal professionals. Lawyers are at an extremely high risk of alcoholism, drug abuse and dependency, anxiety and depression, so Vanisha turned to yoga to avoid falling victim to one of the former. It was here on her mat that she found peace, which led her to want to bring this to her law school community. Vanisha became a certified instructor during the summer of her 2L year of law school and began teaching classes on Georgetown’s campus in the fall of her 3L year. Upon graduation, she obtained her 300-hour certification in 2020 and returned to Austin, where she teaches yoga and practices law as a fifth-year associate at a law firm.
