Briohny Smyth
Aligned Yoga was founded by Briohny Smyth — known online as Bri, and to her students as the teacher behind the "Aligned Method", an alignment-led, physical vinyasa style. Her own about page describes "over 15 years of experience building teacher trainings, online content, festivals and retreats", and she has been leading trainings in Thailand since 2012. The school is registered with Yoga Alliance and runs on one principle it states plainly: start from where you are. Every programme is self-paced, carries a full year of access, and comes with direct feedback from Bri — scheduled calls, WhatsApp support, and answers under every lecture.

Verified from first-party sources on 2026-09-01: every tuition figure and payment plan below (read from the live enrolment blocks on online.alignedyoga.com); the July 11-22 2026 Thailand training at Amatara, Phuket and its accommodation bands; the October 14-18 2026 Mexico retreat at Armony Marival, Punta de Mita and its early-bird pricing; Yoga Alliance registration; the 361K Instagram and 67.3K YouTube figures read from the live profiles; and the Alo relationship, confirmed both on Alo's own instructor page (280 classes, now branded ALO Wellness Club) and on Aligned Yoga's own 300HR page, which lists a free one-year Alo Moves subscription as a tuition perk. Still needs the owner to confirm: which legal entity is current (footers show both "Aligned Yoga LLC" and "Aligned Wellness"), the correct years-of-teaching figure (the live pages say 15, 20 and 25 in three different places), whether trainings@ or training@alignedyoga.com is the right support address, and whether the July 2027 Phuket dates teased on Instagram are open.
