Yoga Teacher Training

Steph N.

Steph discovered yoga through her first guru (her mom) at the age of 14 and feels fortunate to have spent her formative teenage years learning about embodiment and chanting with her family. The practice captured her attention further while attending university and looking for a tool to help her navigate the stress and exertion of that time, and she completed her first 200-hr teacher training in 2012. Since then, Steph has taken every opportunity available to deepen her understanding of this ancient practice. She’s traveled to India twice to immerse herself in traditional training and practices with Kia Miller, and is honored to be considered one of Kia’s senior teachers. Steph has also been fortunate enough to travel throughout the U.S. to study with established ashtanga vinyasa teachers such as Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor. She is grateful to her teachers for providing the example of practicing what you teach, and has had a dedicated sadhana practice since 2016.

Steph has a degree in Exercise + Sport Science with a Nutrition Minor, and has studied and been influenced by Ashtanga, Hatha, Tantra, Himalayan, and Kundalini schools. Her approach to yoga is playful yet grounded, and her intention is to connect you with your breath, alignment, and the more subtle aspects of yourself. Her classes are accessible to all levels and often incorporate arm balances and inversions, mantra, and meditation. Steph currently leads immersive retreats and programs around the world and online that provide the opportunity to dive deeply into traditional practices, recalibrate your nervous system, and establish balancing rituals that deepen a sense of peace and joy.
