Stasha started practicing yoga in 2019 and quickly noticed a difference in all aspects of her life.

One of Statsha’s favorite quotes to live by: “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel”. - Maya Angelou
Stasha’s Favorite yoga pose: Downward-Facing Dog as it provides a great perspective change.
