Free and Easy

Hi!  I’m Stacey Shea, a Northern California native and a former professional dancer.  My yoga practice began 25 years ago, as I searched for a way to remain sane while managing the incredible pain I suffered from a severe spinal injury as a result of an 11mm. herniated disk between vertebrate L4-L5.  Healing myself non-surgically, I am grateful to admit that I now live in a pain-free body.  The healing magic of yoga inspires me to continue my studies in yoga and meditation. My strong passion to share yoga led to the creation of Bikram Yoga Green Valley in Henderson, Nevada. I lovingly owned and operated BYGV from 2008-2015, which gave me the opportunity to facilitate healing and improved lives for thousands of students.

I look forward to practicing with you!
