About Talia
Talia started her yoga path at fifteen, when the practice became a vital alternative to spinal surgery for scoliosis. With consistent dedication, her spinal curvature improved by over fifteen degrees, and surgery was no longer recommended. What began as a therapeutic response soon grew into something much deeper—a steady practice that eased pain while fostering a lasting sense of clarity, calm, and connection through breath and movement. Over time, this personal transformation naturally evolved into a teaching career spanning nearly twenty years.
Her early path was shaped by her first teacher and mentor, Diana Treglia, whose influence continues to inform her work. Over the years, Talia has developed an approach that blends the precision of Iyengar yoga with the fluidity of vinyasa. She has studied extensively with senior Iyengar teachers in both New York and Israel, and trained for many years with Maty Ezraty, refining her understanding of alignment, thoughtful sequencing, and clear, accessible instruction.
Talia’s work focuses on yoga therapeutics and structural alignment. Her training includes the Yoga for Scoliosis program with Elise Miller, mentorship with Deborah Wolk through Yoga Union and Samamkaya Yoga Back Care & Scoliosis Collective in New York City, certification in therapeutic yoga with Gil Solberg in Israel, and ongoing study in the Iyengar tradition.
She holds a Master’s degree from the California Institute of Integral Studies in East–West Psychology, where she explored the intersection of contemplative traditions and modern psychology. Alongside her academic studies, she developed a daily meditation practice rooted in Insight (Vipassana) meditation, which continues to inform both her life and teaching. She has also studied dialogue as a contemplative practice, including Bohm Dialogue, as a way of cultivating deep listening and presence.
Her classes are steady, attentive, and supportive, helping students build strength, develop awareness, and experience a greater sense of ease in both body and mind.
