Work With Hali Love — A Guide Who Lives Her Practice
I’m a devoted mother, a loyal friend, and a supportive partner — but above all, I’m a woman who has walked through fire and emerged stronger. I’ve faced deep loss, survived unhealthy and disempowering relationships, and healed a lifelong, debilitating illness through the transformative wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda. My journey is one of resilience, truth, and reclamation.
I live fiercely aligned with my core values: love, empowerment, integrity, and healthy boundaries. I've learned that saying no is just as sacred as saying yes, and that true connection begins with honoring our own limits. I believe in living life passionately — with adventure, joy, and balance — and I’m committed to sharing the tools that have helped me rediscover my vitality, clarity, and self-respect.
If you’re seeking healing, alignment, or a deeper connection to your purpose, I’d be honored to walk beside you — grounded, clear, and in full respect of your journey and mine.
Let’s move, heal, and grow — together.
"Move More, Stress Less — Free Your Mind, Fuel Your Life!"
When I'm not cherishing time with my family or deepening my personal practice, I pour my energy into the projects that light me up.
I’m the founder of Virtual Prana, an online yoga education platform that empowers practitioners worldwide. I also lead Multi Barre, an instructor training platform both in-person and online, helping others share their love for movement.
At Playa Negra Yoga, my cozy studio in beautiful Playa Negra, Costa Rica, I create a space for healing and growth. Additionally, I’ve developed Healing With Love, a peer support group app that offers trauma-aware and mental health programs, offering community and healing to those who need it most.
Commitment
I believe that what we receive from life is a reflection of what we give. I choose to live with authenticity and abundance — rooted in gratitude, compassion, adventure, and full self-expression.
As part of my commitment to giving back, I offer full personal sponsorships to local Costa Ricans who wish to attend my yoga teacher trainings and studio classes. I strive to live in alignment — with my values, my purpose, and my community.
I’m deeply committed to my team and to cultivating relationships that go beyond surface happiness. True connection, to me, is built through growth, resilience, and mutual perseverance — especially in life’s most challenging moments.
We all experience highs and lows; what matters is how accountable we are in our actions. At my core, I value loyalty and empowerment — and I lead with both in all that I do.
