Meet Your Teachers

Each teacher brings a distinct voice to the practice, grounded in the same intention: presence over performance.

  Elena Hart

  Founder & Lead Teacher

  “I teach because stillness taught me how to listen to my own body again.”

  Elena is the founder and heart of Sage & Stone, drawing on eight years of teaching experience and a deep background in alignment-based vinyasa and yin yoga. She built this studio as a sanctuary from high-intensity fitness culture because, as she says, stillness taught her how to listen to her own body again — a gift she shares in every class.

  Vinyasa & Breathwork Teacher

  “Movement with breath is the simplest medicine I know — I love sharing it.”

  Marcus teaches vinyasa flow and breathwork with a focus on how breath and movement together are medicine. His classes are dynamic yet deeply grounded, inviting students to build strength without strain and to move with intention rather than effort — the simplest medicine he knows.
