Stacie

Studio Director

You’ll find Stacie’s friendly smile either teaching an amazing class or greeting you at the front desk when you visit Yoga Pod!

Stacie is not only a wonderful yoga teacher but also our amazing Studio Director who keeps things running smoothly at Yoga Pod!

She grew up in Albuquerque, NM and has lived in Austin for 26 years. She has been teaching yoga for over 16 years with over 1000 hrs of Yoga Teacher Training and Continuing Education. With her background in Kinesiology and Sports Medicine, her classes are influenced by her anatomical knowledge using functional movement patterns of different muscle groups and joints, myofascial release, and providing accessibility for all bodies. She teaches Vinyasa flow with a strong emphasis on alignment. When taking her classes, you can expect dad jokes! Her classes are lighthearted, creative, and challenging. Stacie is known as the "compassionate ass-kicker".

Stacie has a degree in Art Education from The University of Texas at Austin and loves to paint and study birds when she is not teaching or managing Yoga Pod. She feels most at home when being outside in nature. When she is not outside, she enjoys cooking, snuggling with her dog, Summer, reading comic books, and listening to music and science-based podcasts. Stacie's favorite things about working at Yoga Pod are the strong sense of community and all the incredible people she has formed strong bonds with over the 4 years she has been managing the studio.
