About the Host: Vanisha is an RYT 500 and lives in Austin, TX. She began her yoga journey in 2017 during her 1L year at Georgetown Law. The first year of law school is by far the hardest year and oftentimes is the gateway for the bad habits that run high among those in the legal profession. 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 where 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. She obtained her 300 hour certification in 2020 and upon graduation, moved back to Austin, where she currently teaches yoga and practices law as a 5th year associate at a global law firm.
