Instructors > Stefanie Simonetta
Stefanie, a recently retired high school French teacher, had the pleasure of taking students, family and friends to Europe with her. There they recognized the shared human experience with those of other cultures and realized that there are other ways in addition to the American Way. The exposure opened the eyes of many students as she witnessed a shift in attitude, a desire to explore more, and the possibilities of creating change.
Teaching and interacting with students of all ages has been her joy. Having spent 32 years in the classroom teaching French and 15+ years teaching body toning classes opened the door for Stefanie to find yoga.
When her mother was diagnosed with early on-set Alzheirmer's, she was devastated. She was a new mother faced with losing her own mother. Anxiety and depression became part of her world. She had tremendous support but finding personal strength and determination was very challenging. However, her teaching career and her two passions, an interest in healthy foods and daily exercise, provided the focus and the physical strength to continue. To this day, she has continued along these two avenues.
'Practicing Yoga as a way of life seems very natural to me. I see myself as connected to the philosophy of yoga and I am drawn to its guidance for living a joyful life.'
Certified as a 200-hour teacher, she looks forward to sharing her experiences with the students at Rising Sun Yoga.
