Why Choose Me?:

I have been a yoga teacher invested in learning about, practicing, and teaching yoga for healing for the past 11 years. In addition to checking out my qualifications and certifications on the “About Me” page, please consider attending a Yin Yoga class where I am teaching (every Tuesday night at 6:30 PM at Mosaic Yoga, offered by donation) to see my teaching style.

In addition to being a highly qualified yoga instructor, I am also a veteran teacher in the public school system, with 14 years of experience teaching adult education. This means I am also very knowledgeable about how adults learn. I can offer you an immersion that is informative, engaging, and highly effective. Please refer to my “Testimonials” tab for some of the experiences of people who have taken trainings and workshops from me.

Many immersions and Yin certification courses are offered online. This is an opportunity to learn in person with a group of other like-minded yoga instructors and to receive personalized feedback for your growth.

Gentle Yoga Teacher Training (YTT-200)

January 2027-May 2027

To Register, Click Here: https://forms.gle/TnfLwPDYp84oZ6zM7

This unique 200-hour yoga teacher training focuses on the slower, gentler forms of yoga. By the end of this training, you will have your 200-hour general certification to teach yoga. You will also have separate 20-hour immersion training certificates certifying you to teach Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Restorative Yoga with an option to be additionally certified in Reiki 1 and Reiki 2 energy work.

How is this program different from other yoga teacher training programs?

Most yoga programs are general yoga teacher training that is heavily geared towards being able to teach Power Yoga or Flow Yoga. Yoga practitioners that feel draw toward the slower, softer styles of yoga often leave their certification program not knowing how to teach the styles they want to. Even programs that offer exposure to gentler forms of yoga fail to teach practitioners how to actually teach these modalities.

This training program is different. You will still learn the basics of yoga, including its philosophy, history, the business of yoga, etc., but you will learn the pranayama (breath work), asanas (poses), and cueing/teacher directions within the framework of these slower forms of yoga in particular. You will leave yoga teacher training totally prepared to teach Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Restorative Yoga. There will also be a lot of exposure to Kundalini Yoga, holotropic breath work, sound baths, “rebirthing” yoga, meditation, and other practices that invite deep inner work and healing.

This training also allows you to do a deep dive into important yogic texts. You will read 3 books over the course of the training, “The Yoga Sutras,” “The Bhagavad Gita,” and “The Yamas and Niyamas.” The books will be read in a book club format and will offer valuable insights and discussions on deeper yogic philosophy that will be the foundation for your teaching.

This program is offered primarily in person, offering you a chance to build a network of other yoga teachers, ask questions, and get personalized feedback on your teaching. (Joining via Zoom will sometimes be available—see the schedule below.)

The Wild Edge of Sorrow: Grief Series

Sign-Up: https://forms.gle/DobK5T7ff6BqPLJT6

2026 Dates: Feb. 4, 11, 18, 25, Mar. 4, 11

(2027 dates to be announced, check back)

Join me Wednesdays from 6:45-8:45 PM for a 6-week series on healthy grieving. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one or pet, the end of a partnership, the loss of health, home, or employment, the loss of innocence, community, or family, or are feeling sorrow for our struggling world, this series acknowledges that grief and loss touches us all. Grief is our “…shared sorrow, the communal cup from which we all drink.”

When grief goes largely unacknowledged, as it often does in our culture, and is sent to the shadows of our lives, it arises again as depression, anxiety, addiction, loneliness, and numbing actions. Bringing grief out of the shadows helps us regain our vitality and remember who we are.

The series is based on the book “The Wild Edge of Sorrow” by Francis Weller and the book is included in the cost of the workshop. Each week will be part book club where we discuss a portion of the book as well as participation in grief rituals, gentle yoga, mindfulness, breath work, and meditation practices. The goal is to create a sense of community and connection and to fully honor our losses, thereby enabling us to embody joy. 

“To honor our grief, to grant it space and time in our frantic world is to fulfill a covenant with the soul-to welcome all that is, thereby granting room for our most authentic life.” 

Held at The Local Co-Op 1991 1100 East, Salt Lake City (in the alley just north of Sugarhouse Coffee). If you live out of town and wish to join via Zoom, please let me know. I can also record any sessions you may have to miss and send you the recording. 

$250 for the 6-week series and the book. (Limited full and partial scholarships may be available. Contact akasha.kirti.yoga to apply.)

Class dates: February 4, 11, 18, 25, March 4, 11

I started doing this grief series in 2021 and have done 6 series at The Local Co-Op. Please view my “Testimonials” page for more on the perspective of grief series participants. 

No prior experience with yoga or meditation is needed and the series is accessible for all bodies. 

To register, please send a non-refundable $30 to @stephanie-feller-2 on Venmo (last four of phone number are 0799). This enables me to purchase the books for the series in advance and know how many spots are available. Also, please fill out the registration sheet at the top of this section.
