Allison Nelson
Allison is the yoga and mobility instructor at S3 Athletics. Juggling graduate school, expanding her family, marriage, and her career, Allison found she had lost touch with the things that she used to greatly enjoy. Following the birth of her second child, in 2013, was when she was introduced to yoga from a dear friend and quickly fell in love. She continued to seek resources and local connections to further her practice, and became a certified Registered Yoga Teacher(RYT) in 2017.
