Meet Your Teachers
Tiffany Langdon:
My passion lies in studying Hindu Mythology and Yoga Philosophy. I tend to teach yoga classes that weave asana and mythology together including fluid movement and carefully chosen postures to strengthen the body and to prepare the body for meditation. I urge students to practice yoga to develop a deeper understanding of their 'true self'. My classes are challenging but fun, safe, light-hearted and accessible to all levels and I invite every student to be satisfied with their yoga practice as it is today and to enjoy their own journey

What Students Are Saying
“I fell in love with Lee's teaching style during my first class with her. Shortly after, I found out she would be leading a YTT and knew that I was meant to learn from her on a deeper level. Her heartfelt practice and devotion cultivate an undeniable authenticity. In addition, her detailed attention to the physical aspect of yoga helped me to build vastly on my own experience of asana and guide others with confidence. I highly recommend studying with Lee, even you only can for one session. If you are able to take on the role of her long-term student, please do it. It will change your life.”
— Hunter Greene, teacher trainee
“She is just an amazing human, inside and out, and she radiates positive energy and enthusiasm. Any amount of time spent with Lee is time well spent, and I knew from the moment we met that we would become lifelong friends. I also knew that our teaching styles would really compliment one another, and it’s been a joy to share the teaching stage with her on many occasions.
I really admire Lee’s devotion to her practice, and her dedication to her work as a counselor. She continues to inspire me with her generous spirit.
I attend Lee’s classes because they are beautiful works of art, and I admire her ability to skillfully able to weave together her knowledge of energy and alignment, through movement and breath. I asked her if she would lead portions of my yoga teacher training because I know that above all she is a dedicated student. I know that her practice and teaching come from a deep well of experience. I would highly recommend her as a teacher of yoga.”
-J Miles, co-teacher and mentor
“Lee is a dedicated and knowledgeable instructor and teacher. She is empowering, and passionate, punctual, organized, and sets clear expectations for her students and herself. She provides functional instruction full of meaning and history that sets you up for success. Her yoga teacher training is well rounded, fun, creative and I felt confident about my ability to safely and accurately share the gift of yoga with beginners to intermediate level yogis. Choosing Lee as my mentor is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made..”
— Mary Lawson, teacher trainee
