Our Mission

About What You Need Yoga

At What You Need Yoga, our mission is to cultivate a welcoming and adaptive space where every individual can honor their own journey. Guided by the principle “Take what you need, leave what you don’t,” we empower people to embrace a practice rooted in mindfulness, self-awareness, and compassion. We recognize that yoga is not a one-size-fits-all experience; it is a deeply personal path that evolves with each breath. By encouraging practitioners to listen to their bodies, release expectations, and honor imperfection, we support growth that is sustainable, healing, and authentic. Our commitment is to foster a community that celebrates diversity, individuality, and the power of showing up exactly as you are.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Every time I step into the yoga room with Stephanie, a sense a peace washes over me. Her energy calms the room before class even starts. She always begins class by grounding us all and bringing us to the present moment. The words she says and the poses she gets us into perfectly mesh together to give you a sense of zen. I take Stephanie’s classes absolutely any time I can. Her yin classes and sound bowl series are my favorite ways to start or end the day. You can never go wrong with a class from Stephanie!"

- Danielle V

"I always look forward to yoga classes with Stephanie. I'm not very experienced in yoga, but Stephanie offers a number of modifications so her classes are great for any skill level. She creates a very welcoming atmosphere, and I love her varied playlists and gentle flows. When offered, the sound baths are an additional treat. I leave every class feeling more refreshed and relaxed. Would highly recommend Stephanie's classes to anyone looking to learn more about yoga or continue their on-going practice."

- Emmie G

"I can’t recommend what you need yoga enough. Stephanie is full of knowledge and takes the time to get to know her students, and what they need from her and her classes. Being a beginner I was very nervous to start yoga, but every class has been a wonderful experience getting to know my body and how it flows- and Stephanie couldn’t be a better teacher!! Every class I learn something new about my body and a new technique for loving and caring for it, and I have Stephanie to thank for that!!"

- Chelsea G

“I have been practicing with Stephanie for over a year. She is an incredible yoga instructor who brings warmth, wisdom, and genuine care to every class. Her sessions always leave me feeling stronger, calmer and more centered. Stephanie creates a space that feels both supportive and empowering, offering just the right mix of movement, mindfulness, and rest. Each time I attend one of her sessions, I’ve notice an improvement in both my physical and mental well-being. Each class feels like a reset for the body and mind. I truly recommend her to anyone wanting to grow in their yoga journey.”
