Beatriz Benedit-Owner 400RYT
Lewisburg Yoga

I fell in love with the practice of yoga and have followed my passion to bring it to our community. I have studied under many great teachers and have spent hundreds of hours studying different teachings and practices. My main goal is to share what I've learned with you, so that you can benefit as I have from a regular yoga practice. It's a journey of self awareness, involving practices that help achieve better quality of life. You'll feel better, and stronger than before. It's a practice of discipline that only works if you show up for it (that is the discipline!). I am here for you, as an encouragement, a support guide to help you grow in whatever manner you'd like. At Lewisburg Yoga Studio, you never feel intimidated because we let go of all judgments and we practice acceptance of self and of others. It is a community safe space for all.

Tracy Baylor RYT 200-yoga instructor
My yogic journey started about ten years ago during a trying time in my life. I happened upon a yoga class and I was hooked. I loved the way I felt after class and in time I decided to go to teacher training and received my 200 hours. Since then I have been teaching at several different venues. Each place and class brought new friends and gave me an opportunity to share yogi love. I have two sons Will (33) that lives locally and Daniel (28) that lives in Montana. My husband Scott and I have been married for almost 37 years!! Wow, where did that time go? We are semi-retired and love to spend time traveling in our camper. Last year we put on about 8,000 miles and it was fantastic. I run a small dog rescue in my spare time and am very involved with the welfare of animals. I'm honored to be part of the return to Brookpark and am looking forward to teaching , laughing and inspiring all that cross our yogic paths. See you soon!!

Sierra is an RYT 500, HeartMath Certified Practitioner, and Energy Healing Guide (using Usui Reiki, Emotion Code and Eden Energy Medicine techniques). She also has specialized training in self massage (using therapy balls for myofascial release and deep tissue massage), trauma sensitive yoga and yoga Nidra.
She approaches teaching yoga the same way she approaches her personal practice, with a sense of openness and acceptance. She feels her job as a teacher is to serve as a guide, spark curiosity and hold space for you, the student, to explore; to provide opportunities (and encouragement) to practice without judgment or expectation...to be fully present with breath, body, and experience.
She enjoys sharing invigorating practices that combine traditional alignment based vinyasa flow, breath awareness, functional movement, and energetic balancing/clearing techniques; these practices ignite the spirit and help burn through mental, physical, and energetic holding patterns (samskaras)
She also feels drawn to share softer restorative and yin practices that provide gentle release and rest; these practices are all about letting go and allowing, they are a surrender, a place to be instead of do.
Her goal with each practice, regardless of its pace or style, is to provide opportunities to connect with mind, body, and spirit, clear your inner space, and find a little more peace.
