Gina RainoneStarting with gymnastics as a young child, I choose to study dance in many forms. I began to see the fulfillment that movement brought to my life. As an adult I knew that there was a way to bring this same joy to others.
I have enjoyed working with children for the past ten years in various settings and now teaching children's yoga. Yoga school taught me that theres a rainbow of knowledge to discover beneath the practice. |

Ashley SporlederAshley first discovered yoga in 2016 at a time when she needed it most. As an athlete and Type A personality, she was no stranger to exercise but didn’t see the value in “stretching.” Within 30 days, that all changed. For the first time in a long time (maybe ever), she slowed down and felt at home on her mat. While the physical changes were great, it was the spiritual transformation that kept her coming back for more. Through yoga, she was able to get out of her head and into her body and in turn, find balance, compassion, and acceptance. In 2018, she completed her 200 hour teacher training under Cindy Boulter at Revolution Community Yoga in Acton, MA. She has now dedicated herself to being a life-long student and wants to share with others exactly what yoga has given her: confidence, self-love and gratitude. She teaches vinyasa, restorative and yin yoga. As a teacher, her goal is to facilitate a space where her students can experience all of the above and breathe. Her classes focus on alignment, self-awareness and breath work and are accessible to all levels and all bodies.

Scott J SmithScott has lived the majority of his life listening to his thoughts instead of observing them. He found himself wandering from place to place, East Coast to West coast, feeling like life’s most difficult questions had no answers. The day he found his mat, he was able to start utilizing his keen sense of awareness and apply that to focus inward. With this focus and self-connection he works on bringing yoga practice to all aspects of his life, so he can continue creating space in his heart and be present. He is grateful for his family, friends, and all those who have and continue to support him along his journey. Without all of those people and experiences in life; the good, the bad, the difficult, he would not be the person he is today. And for that he is grateful!

Scott completed his 200 hour training under Kelly and Ted Stiglich at Peoples Yoga in Traverse City, Michigan. Since then he has also completed specific trainings in yin yoga, yoga nidra, and Reiki 1 under Stephanie Lynn at Yen Yoga & Fitness. While he continues to increase his own practice and knowledge through study and trainings; his real passion is sharing his perspective with others, as to how they can connect what they learn on their mat to their everyday life, with the intention that they can live a more fulfilling life.

Stephanie PappasStephanie is a RYT 200 and a certified Reiki Master. She found herself on a path led her to yoga through a series of events that left her feeling like there was nowhere else to turn. One day, unsure of what to do, she asked for a sign from the universe. She then followed a flock of birds into a parking lot that led her directly to a yoga studio. From there, the path led to many breakthroughs and healing, as well as a love for teaching and sharing yoga and reiki with as many people as possible. Stephanie enjoys teaching in a style that is gentle and compassionate, and is open to teaching a variety of populations. Being highly sensitive and intuitive, she follows an inner call or "knowing" and applies this spiritual aspect into her classes.
