Stephanie Riggs

Yoga Instructor

As a mom of 2 healthly energetic boys yoga was always a passion of mine. I practiced during my pregnancy and found it so rewarding ans joyful whenever I practiced. I wanted to share my love and passion of yoga with everyone so I decided to enroll in a teacher training program at the Yoga Loft in Bethlehem.

At the Yoga Loft I learned so much from all of my teachers and all styles of Yoga. The energetic movement of breath in Vinyasa- the proper alignment points in Lyengar- the peacefulness of Restorative.

During my classes I bring a playfulness of all types of Yoga to make it fun and enjoable. Yoga allows a movement for everyone and I believe that students leave class with that along with that svasana bliss.

When Yoga lives in your heart- you can find peace anywhere you go.

Real happiness lies in that which never comes nor goes, but simply is.
