Amy Stephanik, E-RYT 500, YACEP
I began my yoga journey as a teenager when my neighbor Rose gave me my first yoga book. She knew I suffered from back pain from a car accident I had experienced when I was 10 years old. Little did I know it would chart the course that would lead me on this amazing journey of self-study filled with an abundance of personal growth and many opportunities to meet some of the most amazing beings that have taught and guided me to be an authentic yoga teacher. Through my teens and into my 30s I explored many activities. I was a competitive runner, swimmer, martial artist, body builder and an avid inline skater. I was able to weave the yoga practices into my active life. The yoga helped my back pain. I was sleeping better and I could feel I was recovering quickly from my intense workouts. In 1989 my practice of Asana, Meditation and Bhakti yoga drew me to the Kripalu Center in Lenox Ma. I fell in love with the Kripalu practice that was filled with the essence of the teachings of Swami Kripalu. I began to share the practice with massage clients and friends. I completed the 500 hour Kripalu YTT in 2006. I went on to study Pranakriya Yoga and completed the 500 hour Pranakriya YTT in 2015. My Primary Yoga Teacher is Yoganand (Michael Carroll).
