Meet Aileen

Aileen O'Connell took her first yoga class 15 years ago while pursuing her PhD in molecular microbiology. Throughout her career in science, Aileen always felt at peace each time she practiced yoga.

In 2023, Aileen decided it was time to follow her dream of teaching yoga and helping others find their source of joy and peace. She left her laboratory management position in New York City and moved to the South of France with her husband and daughter and founded AOC YOGA.

Aileen loves inspiring her clients and helping them meet their goals. She breaks down complex poses step by step to make them more accessible for her students. Seeing the joy in her clients eyes when they achieve what they didn’t believe was possible brings her so much joy.
