Co-Executive Director
Stephanie has a BA in graphic design from Mount Marty University and a MFA in creative writing from Hamline University. She has worked in nonprofit fundraising and communications since 2015. At One Yoga, she manages and creates content for social media and digital and print marketing, conducts annual fundraising campaigns, manages individual donor relations, and collaborates with the Leadership Team to develop and promote class and workshop offerings, assist in organizational development, and support financial and operational goals.
Regardless of who you are, what you look like, or whom you love, creating a space for everybody is very important. Society places many expectations and roles as to how, what, when, where, and why you are doing something instead of simply being. Through conscious movement connected to breath, you have an opportunity to learn how to be in this moment. Yoga is an opportunity to create, rediscover, and connect to the experience of being human and overcome the obstacles that stand in your path. I invite you to join me.

Within the Mysore-style practice space relationship is paramount to fostering a balanced [and by extension a sustainable] approach toward the physical and mental aspects of a “practice." As an instructor, I strive to establish an environment of support, trust, and open communication. I facilitate the individual’s path of growth which these rich traditions hold and impart to all who seek their limitless knowledge. It is a journey aided by the wisdom imparted by those who practice(d).
