Education & Professional Training
We train the next generation of yoga therapists and integrative health practitioners through accredited programs and advanced specialty trainings. Our curriculum bridges ancient wisdom with modern science to prepare providers for real-world impact.
Research & Data Innovation
We integrate outcomes tracking and research into all of our programs to measure impact and contribute to the evidence base for yoga therapy and lifestyle medicine. Our approach ensures that community-based care is both measurable and scalable.
Clinical & Community Care
We deliver personalized yoga therapy and integrative health services alongside accessible group programs designed to prevent, manage, and reverse chronic conditions. Our offerings meet individuals where they are, bridging clinical care with real-life application.
Condition-Specific Programs
We develop structured, evidence-informed programs targeting specific health conditions such as back pain, anxiety, and cardiometabolic disease. These programs are designed for replication across communities while maintaining individualized care.
Technology & Scalable Systems
Through the AlcheMē Method App, we provide a platform for tracking client progress, supporting research, and standardizing program delivery. This “program-in-a-box” and “research-in-a-box” system enables expansion into communities nationwide.
Professional Development & Practice Launch
We equip practitioners with the business, marketing, and operational tools needed to build sustainable careers. Through our “practice-in-a-box” model, providers can confidently launch and grow their own programs in clinical and community settings.
About
Katie Allen and Allison Prince have been collaborating in yoga therapy and integrative health education for nearly two decades. Since 2006, they have dedicated their work to advancing community-based health promotion through evidence-informed, whole-person care.
Katie holds a Master’s degree in Public Health, with expertise in program design, implementation, and evaluation. Allison holds a Master’s degree in Functional Medicine and Nutrition, bringing a deep clinical understanding of root-cause healing and personalized care. Together, they bridge ancient wisdom with modern science to create accessible, effective health interventions.
Their work has been implemented across a wide range of clinical and community-based settings throughout Southern California, including partnerships with healthcare systems, research institutions, and local organizations.
In 2022, they co-founded the AlcheMē Natural Health Institute (ANHI), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, to expand access to integrative health education and care. ANHI exists to advance the field of yoga therapy and lifestyle medicine through four core areas: Community-Based Programming, Professional Training & Workforce Development, Research & Outcomes Evaluation, and Social Connection & Community Care.
Through ANHI, they provide evidence-based, condition-specific programs, offer scholarships and professional training pathways, and conduct research to demonstrate the effectiveness of whole-person health interventions. Their mission is to empower both individuals and practitioners with the tools, education, and support needed to improve health outcomes and build sustainable, impactful careers within the evolving healthcare landscape.
Community Tea House
A nourishing community space that cultivates social support, authentic connection, and wellness education. The Tea House serves as the social anchor for all of ANHI’s work — reducing isolation and reinforcing that health happens in community.
