Stacey Brass is a Registered Yoga Teacher with the Yoga Alliance, and is a senior teacher and manager of New York City’s Laughing Lotus Yoga Center. Coming from a strong dance background, her teaching style is defined by creative sequencing with strong attention to alignment and how the physical practice of yoga can ultimately lead to freedom in both the body and the mind. Her popular group classes are infused with spirited philosophy, a sense of humor, and eclectic and inspiring music. Stacey specializes in one on one instruction, with students ranging from total beginners, to advanced practitioners looking to deepen their experience through individual attention. In addition, she is highly qualified to teach therapeutic and restorative yoga, working with people who are recovering from injury or illness, as well as expecting moms.

Currently Stacey teaches one of the two 200-hour teacher trainings offered at the Lotus College of Yoga each year that certifies individuals to become yoga teachers in compliance with the Yoga Alliance National standards. This program is one of the most well respected in the country, and its teachers are all considered to be experts in their fields. When she is not teaching teachers, she practices, plays and breathes with her most beloved teachers Dana Flynn and Jasmine Tarkeshi of Laughing Lotus. In addition she has completed three advanced teacher trainings with Rodney Yee, and has studied with Judith Lasater and Alison West.

Stacey is currently an Ambassador for Lululemon Athletica which will be opening stores in New York City soon!
