Stephanie Sandleben

Stephanie Sandleben was first hooked by yoga in her teens through her mother, a Kripalu style Hatha yogini, along with inclusive spirituality and awareness of breath from her father, a Sufi Sheikh.  After several years of exploring different styles and teachers, and a mind-blowing trip to India, she completed her 200-hr teacher training with Alison West at Yoga Union in NYC.  Stephanie is currently inspired by the precision of Iyengar yoga, the freedom and creativity of Vinyasa, the poetry of Anusara, and continues her studies with Tias and Surya Little. Her classes are a glistening balance of alignment and flow imbued with heart, sweat, and breath.  Deep gratitude for her hippy parents, the amazing teachers who continue to peel open her eyes, and to the students who open her heart!
