Going back to work and lofty resolutions settle into the reality of early alarms, full calendars… and maybe the routine you promised yourself hasn't quite landed yet.

Here is your reminder: Create a safety net, plan a back-up and keep you on your path wherever you are.

Myth & Mantra is an offering to tend to your practice when the structure of routine shifts.

Hanuman's Story invites the courage to get good intentions to fly into action✨

Within Myth & Mantra: Hanuman’s Story is:
✨ The story of Hanuman and his great leap of faith
✨ A 45-min practice to embody courage and devotion
✨ Guidance on chanting a Hanuman mantra with confidence
✨ A beautiful PDF to revisit anytime

Once you have it, it’s yours to keep.
No start date. No pressure. Just a little safety net to keep your practice in track.

Right now it’s $18 — less than a single class, and designed to support you through transition when resolutions meet real life.

Take a leap of faith!

I'm heading away for the holidays soon, and I know many of you will be traveling too.

It's that time of year when our routines shift, our mats stay rolled up a little longer, and it's easy to lose touch with practice.

So I made something you can take with you, wherever you're going.

Myth & Mantra: Hanuman's Story is a way to keep your practice alive over the holidays and beyond.

It's about understanding the mythology behind Hanumanasana, moving with intention, and connecting to something deeper than just the physical pose.

Inside:

✨ The story of Hanuman and his great leap of faith
✨ A 45 min practice to embody his courage and devotion
✨ How to chant his mantra with confidence
✨ Beautiful PDF to revisit anytime

Now just $18, this offering is cheaper than a studio class and yours to keep.

To get the offer, visit yogawithstef.com or send me a message for a direct link!

Practice in hotel rooms, at your parents' house, or back home when you're ready.

It'll be waiting for you.

The yoga path was not designed to be walked alone…

It was meant to be lived in a community that holds you on the path, offers you perspective and enriches your understanding.

The Deepening Yoga Mentorship is exactly that: A circle of sincere seekers, a sanctuary of time and space for inquiry where practice rises beyond shapes to become a living breathing contemplation of yogic philosophy.

Together we will explore, challenge, laugh, sip tea and love yoga.

If you feel the call to go deeper… into the roots of yoga and your own inner wisdom…answer the call.

The next intake of Deepening is open now.

What makes a truly great yoga teacher?

It's not the perfect demo or the fancy sequences.

What I admire most in truly great yoga teachers is their presence.

The way they hold space, speak with care and move with intention.

The way they meet people, as they are.

Being a teacher isn't about mastering tricks but learning to articulate what moves you in a way that touches the universal human experience.

A great teacher is a lifelong learner who will never stagnate in assumptions.

Humble and willing to discard the stability of what was known in order to grow into deeper understanding.

Teaching is not about performing perfection but cultivating a presence that facilitates transformation.

This is the foundation of our approach to The Deepening - a Yoga Mentorship Program for Teachers & Seekers.

Deepening Your Practice starts in May 2026.

Early Bird Applications open this November 12th.

Are you ready to take the next step in your yoga journey?

A very special offer will only be available to waitlist members, so don't miss out!

The thing nobody tells you about yoga:

⭐ The poses were never the main event.

Sure you will get disciplined in the process, you might enjoy the brief satisfaction of mastering a pose, but for me, the real prize is a sense of comfort in my own skin.

⭐ You can get realtime insight into your nervous system through your breath.

Just by regulating my breath I can regulate myself efficiently.

⭐ Don’t forget, the lofty goal of yoga is LIBERATION!

Yoga philosophy is not a complicated mystery, this pathway to liberation is something all you can learn about too.

Hint: It is usually less about how it looks and more
about supporting your nervous system.

Some practices will feel instantly grounding.
Others might stretch your edges.

Like a nourishing buffet:
Not everything will be your flavour.
You won’t be able to digest everything at once.
You’re here to taste, notice, reflect.

What builds resilience?
What will ease your nerves?

All are invitations to meet yourself in wholeness.
You don’t need to find the one right way.

Because there are “Many paths—but one truth.”
— Satchidananda

The whole is much bigger than the sum of its parts✨

We are hardwired to connect human to human through moving, breathing and listening together.

In yoga practice, I feel this truth so deeply as bodies move to the same breath, synchronicity arises. Beyond exercise, this is a visceral reminder of what it means to be human.

Research tells us that:
🫀 Heartbeats synchronise when we make sound or move together
👀 Eyes read movement as a language beyond words
🧠 Brains mirror each other’s patterns, weaving auniversal language of movement and sound, a legacy of culture and our sense of belonging.

I am SO grateful I get to walk the yoga path with YOU!
