E-RYT 500 Yoga Actions

A longtime student of yoga and meditation, Stacy has studied with a variety of teachers. She completed the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program in 2000. She has completed over 1000 hours of yoga and meditation teacher training. In 2008, she founded Serene Yoga Studio (SYS).

Stacy’s yoga classes, Yoga Actions teacher training program and workshops hold a unique philosophy which allows ANYbody to practice yoga. This approach will help you THRIVE on and off the mat on all levels of being. She had the honour of facilitating mindfulness meditation and yoga classes for Team Canada Women’s volleyball team for four years from 2008 until the team relocated.

Stacy, along with Helen Maupin and Candace Propp, co-designed the Yoga Actions Teacher Training program. In addition they co-authored a regular yoga column in the Winnipeg Free Press from 2015-2019. One of Stacy’s greatest joys is facilitating the Yoga Actions teacher training program at Serene Yoga Studio and she is deeply grateful for the SYS sangha (yoga community). Her aim is to share how yoga can help the individual cultivate a deep felt sense of ease and serenity.

Kat Binding - Studio Director

RYT 200-hr

Kat has been on a journey of healing her body, mind & spirit through many different modalities for the past 25 years. She began her yoga journey in 1996 and she eventually found her way to a more focused and dedicated yoga practice at Serene Yoga Studio in 2013. Kat completed her 200-hr Yoga Actions Teacher Training at Serene Yoga Studio in 2019.

Kat moves through her own personal yoga practice with the understanding that the more space & ease one can create in the physical body, the more space & ease there will be in the nervous system (including the brain), and therefore also in one's overall emotional state. As more comfort & capacity is found in the body, the more peaceful & quiet mind will become.

Kat assists with the 200-hrTeacher Training program and is currently working towards her 500-hr certification.

Co-facilitators & guest instructors will be announced as upcoming events are planned.
