Stephanie is a travel junkie, health nut, foodie, and lover of animals, family, and life. She believes that yoga should be accessible to all and strives to create a positive supportive environment for a true mind-body connection. 

 

Her path to yoga began after taking her first class at a local gym in Baton Rouge, Louisiana over 20 years ago. It was not until she moved to Alpharetta, Georgia in 2009 that she revisited the practice by taking a few classes a month at a local gym. In 2014, she discovered Lift Yoga Studio where she was able to learn from amazing instructors, deepen her practice, and find her true passion for yoga on and off her mat. 

 

After a minor back surgery in 2015, she struggled to find her balance and flexibility, and found it difficult to touch her toes. In Yoga, she found strength, and peace every time she stepped onto her mat, and learned that all things take time, consistency, and love. 

 

Life experiences and completing her 200hrs at Lift Studio with Kim Saunders has allowed Stephanie to follow her childhood passion, and dream of helping others. She feels that coordinating the movement with the breath during each asana, encourages acceptance and flexibility, not only in the body, but also in the mind.
