Allyson Copacino

Allyson Copacino is the yoga teacher at Ida B. Wells High School. Copacino has been teaching yoga for 10 years at IBW. Previous to her hiring at IBW, she owned her own business where she taught yoga to preschoolers as well as adults, and even dabbled in prenatal yoga. Her passion for yoga started as just a form of exercise but she quickly found spiritual and mental relief during a hard time. When asked about her passion for teaching to high schoolers she states she “loves the energy” and “learns a lot from her students.” Copacino grew up in Seattle where she enjoyed numerous activities such as basketball, cheer and tennis. She moved to Oregon and attended University of Oregon and Concordia University for teaching. Today, she still enjoys being outside, with family, sharing her love of yoga and cooking. If she never got into teaching, she would be a travel journalist or teach yoga around the world.
