Introduction

I am Stephanie and I love yoga! It has changed my life, giving me clarity, purpose, vitality and peace. It is my passion to share my practice with the world. I spent time practicing and training in southeast Asia and have been teaching since relocating to Alaska in 2019. I am Yoga Vixen and I teach all styles of yoga for all levels and ages. I would love to practice with you! I am happy to teach private or group classes in my home studio or yours.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
I offer private and group yoga lessons. My fees start at $75 per hour, depending on location and group size. I offer a complimentary full consultation in order to be certain we are going to be a fit.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

unfold fold
I usually speak on the phone or do a facetime interview to get to know a little about new clients. I then schedule a time to meet up and do an in depth consultation to make sure we are all seeking the same outcome from our encounter. I then devise a schedule based on clients wants and needs. Everything is customized and personalized as everyones yoga journey will look and feel different.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
I have completed 500 hours of advanced yoga teacher training. My first 200 hour training I attended was with The Ashtanga Yoga Shala School in Phuket, Thailand in October of 2019. My second 300 hour training I completed in April of 2023 at Ulu Yoga School in Kho Phangan Island, also in Thailand. Thailand is a magical place for me and also the place where I married in 2017. I have also completed The Mindful Resilience Trauma Informed course through the Veteran's Yoga Project. I am continually reading and studying all things yoga and spirituality, pretty much devouring all I can to improve my personal practice and the offerings I bring to my students.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

unfold fold
I discovered yoga whilst living abroad in southeast Asia. I found myself in Hong Kong, far from home and feeling a bit lost. I was seeking meaning and substance in this life and found a wholeness I craved lacking. I stumbled upon an amazing yoga studio and fell in love with myself all over again and I have never been the same. I was inspired to share this profound practice and spiritual awakening with others and I haven't looked back. It has been amazing sharing this practice with the people of Alaska.

What types of customers have you worked with?

unfold fold
I have worked with all ages and walks of life! Many of my students struggle with injuries and common issues such as anxiety, insomnia, depression and fatigue. I have found they never regret spending time with me on their mats and this makes me deliriously happy! Yoga is truly for everyone and anyone can do it! Thinking that you are not flexible enough to practice yoga is like saying you are too dirty for a shower.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
Find a yoga instructor who is passionate about teaching, loves helping people and recognizes that we are all constantly students in our practice, no matter how long we have been at it. And most of all, have fun with it and enjoy it!

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

unfold fold
What are your goals for your yoga practice? How much time are you willing to commit? Can you be kind enough and love yourself enough to surrender to practice without judging yourself? Are you taking enough time for self care, because remember, your body is the only home you have!
