Alina Sedano | Source | Pilates & Yoga Instructor, Movement, Animal Assisted Therapist & Trauma Coach...

Hi There! My name is Alina - I'm a wellness dog momma to a big fluffy floppy-eared 70lb Bernedoodle named Bachelor. I'm also a trauma survivor and Somatic Movement Therapist on a mission to help others, by gently guiding them through the journey of healing from anxiety and trauma in order to reclaim their alignment, purpose, and power in life.

My unique approach to guided healing combines modalities from my background and knowledge in Brainspotting, EFT tapping, mindfulness, meditation, energy healing, yoga, pilates, somatic and other types of neuro-informed movement therapies, and animal-assisted therapy.

I've been teaching & practicing movement therapy for over 20 years as a nationally certified Pilates teacher & yoga instructor at the some of the top wellness resorts in South Florida. I'm also a SAG/ AFTRA Actor, model, former reporter and Corporate Spokesperson with over 25 years of media experience.

Alina’s Story: From Trauma Survivor to Healing Guide
 Life can turn upside down in an instant. For Alina, everything changed the day she and her husband experienced a life-altering accident.

“In 2021, my husband and I were involved in a traumatic pedestrian accident that changed our lives forever. He was struck by a drunk driver from behind while we were jogging on the sidewalk. Our lives changed in an instant. We could no longer relax, play, or live the same.”
 
They say your life’s most difficult paths lead you to your most important callings.
 
And that’s when Exhale & Paws began.
 
Navigating life through the effects of trauma and PTSD, Alina turned to alternative methods of healing. She discovered the power of movement therapy and Brainspotting for her own recovery, igniting a passion for healing from within. It all came together the day her therapist recommended Animal-Assisted Therapy. In just one exhale, Alina met Bachelor: Her built-in bestie and companion. The “Paws” to her Exhale.
 
After hours and hours of trauma-informed education, practice, and training, Alina now helps guide those from the pain of the past to the peace of the present.
