Stephanie Stanko - Apprentice Teacher (A.T.)
Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open. - B.K.S. Iyengar
Stephanie began her journey 3 years ago with Sapere Studio. Falling in love with the movement, she soon discovered that the movement was much deeper than a physical sensation but it became a full body, mind and soul movement activating connection, awareness, balance and strength in her whole SELF.
Recently, she traveled to India to dive deeper into this body, mind, soul experience. She is now back full of passion and eager to share this wonderful practice with others. She is currently in the Sapere Studio apprenticeship program and is extremely excited to help encourage you, inspire you and help you begin your own journey within yourself through the pilates/yoga practice.
