Recent Classes by Steven Espinosa
Following a fifteen year career as a professional dancer, Steven eventually discovered yoga and immediately fell in love.
After participating in the first Anusara teacher training in Los Angeles, Steven began teaching in 2001. During this time he has taught both nationally and internationally. In 2004, Steven was invited to Berlin, Germany where he helped open two successful studios.
With his heart-oriented approach to yoga, combined with a deep understanding of alignment, therapeutics and philosophy, Steven's highest hope is to inspire and empower students to remember the true teacher within their own heart.
Steven is grateful to all of his teachers and is excited and honored to be a part of the yogaglo experience.
