Elyse Familant’s wellness journey began in childhood when her love for movement and holistic wellness took root. From her early days participating in swim team, dance club, cheerleading, and track, to her discovery of aerobics at age 12, Elyse’s dedication to nurturing both her physical and spiritual well-being has remained strong.

In high school, Elyse started her teaching journey, igniting a fitness career that spans over three decades. Her passion for guiding others on their wellness paths led her to deepen her teaching specialties, focusing on Hatha and Vinyasa yoga, Tai Chi, and meditation over the last 20 years. Elyse’s commitment to personal growth has taken her around the globe to train with renowned practitioners,
including immersive experiences at Kripalu in the Berkshires, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Cancun and Peru.

With a blend of humor, grace, and a genuine zest for life, Elyse guides her students, encouraging them to discover their inner strengths and embrace self-empowerment. Central to her teaching philosophy is the belief in infusing joy and self-care into every practice, creating a nurturing environment for growth and exploration.

Beyond her dedication to teaching, Elyse finds joy in various pursuits, including spending time with her family, dachshund Milo, and indulging in her passions for running, hiking, dark chocolate, sunflowers, 80s music, podcasts, massages, and coffee. Elyse resides in North Andover with her husband and dog,aiming to live authentically and inspire others to embrace the richness of life.
