Lisa Harris
A student of yoga since 1997, with a masters degree in education, Lisa naturally evolved into an instructor of yoga. Studying regularly with the world’s top teachers, Lisa has acquired over 400 hours of professional training from teachers including Erich Schiffman, John Friend, Desiree Rumbaugh, and Martin Kirk among others.

While becoming an Anusara-inspired teacher, Lisa has learned techniques to free her own body from chronic back pain and delights in sharing her knowledge with others. Lisa's classes are known for providing easily understood details for aligning the body for optimal safety, stretch, and therapeutic benefit. By offering a choice of gentle, moderate or intense stretch in each class, students are able to work with compassion and respect for their individual needs. Lisa encourages each student to make the practice their own. Emphasis is placed on deep breathing, postural alignment, opening to internal awareness and having fun!

Heather Stevning
In 1978, Heather left home for a 30-day yoga teacher training, although to hear her youngest daughter Jenny tell it, her mom was gone the entire year of Jenny’s first grade in elementary school. Since that time, yoga became a way of life for Heather! What began as a weekly yoga class at the local YWCA in the eighties, evolved into BLUE MUD YOGA Studio in 1995, which became as they say, “a safe place to stretch your spirit.” Heather has been guiding others in the expansion of the human spirit for many decades now, but don’t be fooled by Heather’s evolving consciousness. She is still like everyone else: she forgets to turn off the garden hose, backs out of the garage before it opens completely, and loves quiet Sunday afternoons at home with her dogs, Honey Girl and Bobby Joe Jack.

Jenny Stevning
At age six, Jenny experienced her first yoga class. Remember – her mother, Heather had just returned from yoga teacher training and Jenny and her older siblings were obvious guinea pigs! Jenny loved yoga class and dreamed of levitating as the great yogis of India, but what she really loved were the Oreos served after class. Today, Jenny stays busy teaching yoga and sitting the front desk at BLUE MUD, raising her sarcastic, but spirited teenage daughter, Chloe and launching her own new business, ARTBURN. After all this time, Jenny still loves Oreos best and and has not yet learned to levitate.
