Sophia Phillips

Sophia (she/her) first went to a yoga class out of curiosity, and immediately felt the powerful healing effects of practicing. Since then, she has continued to use yoga as a way to regulate the nervous system and find stillness.

Sophia believes that everyone starts practicing yoga for a reason, and there is no wrong reason to start. What keeps us coming back are the other benefits that we perhaps didn’t anticipate: physical and mental strength, less stress, more confidence, finding community, and more. After years of practicing she knew the next best step was to become a yoga teacher and she has been teaching since 2016. Knowing how much yoga changed her life, she is honored to share this practice with others. In addition to teaching yoga, Sophia is also a certified birth and postpartum doula, nanny, and proud cat mom, with a Bachelor’s degree in Health and Wellness + Women, Gender & Sexuality studies from UNCA. As a queer wellness professional who is informed in HAES (Health At Every Size), she is passionate about creating a space for every body to explore movement and mindfulness, and she is dedicated to making her yoga classes intentional, unique and fun for all!
