The People Who Make Yoga Baum What It Is
At Yoga Baum, people often tell us the studio feels different. Warmer, more personal. We know why that is.
It’s because of the teachers.
Our instructors don’t just lead movement. They create culture. They shape the experience that keeps students coming back not just for yoga, but for connection, understanding, and a feeling of belonging. Their intelligence, warmth, and dedication are what make Yoga Baum what it is.
Experience That Extends Beyond the Mat
Many of our teachers hold degrees and certifications in fields beyond yoga. From education and exercise science to health coaching, counseling, literature, and the arts. Some have taught in formal classrooms. Many work one-on-one with students managing everything from chronic pain to anxiety, mobility limitations, heart defects, or injury recovery. They’re not diagnosing or prescribing, but they are experienced in adapting yoga to meet real people where they are.
Our team stays curious. They pursue continuing education, advanced trainings, and hands-on experience because they know every student brings a different story and deserves a thoughtful, informed approach.
And They’re Quirky In the Best Way
While our teachers are highly skilled, they’re also warm, funny, and incredibly down-to-earth. If you’ve taken a class here, you’ve probably noticed:
✨ Megh weaving mythology and astrology into her classes and Moon Meetings, anchoring movement in meaning.
✨ Abbey cackling mid-class because she’s genuinely having a blast and somehow guiding you through transitions that felt impossible two poses ago.
✨ Laurie, coffee in hand, guiding strength-based flows with Tarot insights and sneaky squats you didn’t see coming.
✨ Helene offering Reiki so soothing it feels like your whole body exhales.
✨ Brandi cheering you on like the yoga best friend you didn’t know you needed.
✨ Elizabeth reading the energy of a room and tailoring the class like she built it just for you.
✨ Amanda’s calming presence that softens the space the moment she walks in.
✨ Emily radiating kindness so sincerely it shifts your whole day.
✨ Sara showing up for Sunrise Flow like it’s her favorite part of the week (because it is) and chatting books with the team between classes.
✨ Jackie offering fierce support and dry humor, both in birth work and on the mat.
Rooted in Care, Built on Connection
Our teachers bring skill, heart, and authenticity to every class. They create spaces where students feel welcome, supported, and free to be themselves whether that means building strength, slowing down, trying something new, or simply breathing in peace.
At Yoga Baum, we believe relationships are central to the practice. That’s why we put so much care into the people who lead it.
