Alexandra’s yoga journey began in her childhood, when during summer breaks in Romania she would meditate alongside her aunt who taught her practices in forgiveness, focused breathing, and energetic visualization. In her teens she took her first yoga asana class and was hooked–finding the practice perfectly suited her passion for movement and dedication to spirituality. After four years of art history studies in Paris, she returned to New York where she immersed herself in the yogic path with over 10 years of study and teaching various communities since 2010.
Dylan is a movement enthusiast and recovering perfectionist who discovered yoga during college, taking occasional classes at the local climbing gym. For years she was a climber first, but eventually something clicked, and the yoga began to offer her a greater sense of physical and spiritual awareness that changed her approach to life and fully commanded her attention.
Drawn back to her mat more and more often, Dylan began teaching yoga in 2019 after earning her 200-hour RYT certification with Cindy Lunsford. Always a student first, she has since completed training intensives with Jason Crandell, Jimmy Barkan and Gillian St. Clair. Above all, she stays dedicated to her personal practice as a tool for getting back to center and perpetually reimagining what is possible.
Dylan teaches alignment-focused vinyasa yoga that lands at the intersection of strength and fluidity. Whether in a powerful, sweaty practice or a grounding slow flow, she offers clear, accessible cues and intuitive sequences, and holds space for students to practice with curiosity, possibility, and play.
Off the mat, Dylan is a software engineer and a Capricorn who loves calisthenics, reading, cooking, writing, live music, lifestyle design, and dancing in the kitchen with her cat, Iggy.

Katherine feels deep gratitude to Jivamukti for introducing her to Kirtan and Krishna, bringing so much grace and joy to her life.
Katherine lives in Nashville and teaches Yoga to adults and children, in groups and privately with an emphasis on becoming fit, as her beloved teacher Sharon Gannon puts it, to be an instrument of the divine. She is a joyful kirtan singer. She takes students on for holistic yoga lifestyle coaching when she is available.

She will travel to Mysore, India, in autumn 2023 for a Jivamukti Refinement Course in Meditation, Hands on assists, and chanting Yoga Sutra.
Lacey’s passion is to help yoga students find strength, stability, and balance within their unique bodies. Her journey has created an interest in learning different styles of yoga and incorporating aspects from various lineages into her practice. Through her teaching, she encourages students to use their practice to find peace, build physical strength and deepen their connection within themselves and to others in our community. She loves being out in nature surrounded by plants and sunshine.
