Stacy Seresun (director of 300 hour teacher training I retreat host)
Stacy is a light hearted human that passionately believes in the benefits of yoga and wants to share it. She enjoys eating chocolate, watching Harry Potter movies and roller coaster Youtube videos.
Yoga has helped her overcome many obstacles in her life. She suffered a car accident 20 years ago and needed an exercise that would heal and not harm her body further which led her to Yoga, which has been an integral part of her life. She spent many years practicing at home but yoga became life changing for her when she took her first studio class. Feeling the energy and connection flowing in one place first hand is where she truly understood and felt the mind-body connection. From this experience and continued practice she was inspired to become a yoga instructor. She is currently the director of the 300 hour Teacher Training. She received her RYT® 500, RYT® 200 and Pretzel kids certification through Hot Yoga of Mill Creek.
She has 20 years of experience with a corporate high stress job which she left after having her 3rd child. She is also a homeschooling champion to her kids. Through her experiences, challenges and blessings of raising a neurodiverse child on the spectrum she has learned to lead with empathy and meet people where they are.
She loves to develop creative flows that will help deepen your practice. She enjoys sprinkling in her witty humor that allows you to laugh at yourself and have fun. She wants her yoga classes to help you find your inner peace, power and strength in a welcoming safe environment providing inspiration for self growth. Remember, it’s yoga practice not yoga perfect.
Livv Fleming
Livv is currently a college student at the University of Washington, working towards her bachelor’s in biochemistry, while working part time as a medical assistant at a naturopathic pediatricians office. She has always been an advocate for health and wellness and developed a deep connection to natural medicine and healing, at a very young age. She first found yoga in the 8th grade. Her mom invited Livv to a 90 minute Bikram class and she fell in love with the practice immediately. Within the past two years, she made a daily yoga practice a priority in her life and saw so many positive changes to her mind, body, and spirit. Livv has been strongly influenced by her yoga teachers and found a desire and passion to teach and share this lifestyle with other people and become a part of their unique yoga journey. In 2021, she went through Hot Yoga of Mill Creek’s 200 Hour Teacher training. Practicing yoga has added so much light into her life and she feels so privileged to be able to teach and guide others towards this light.
Lindsay Custer
Lindsay was drawn to the physicality of yoga when she took her first hatha class over thirty years ago. A former gymnast, she found yoga to be a natural fit. Since then, her practice has evolved and been shaped by pivotal life experiences, deepening her appreciation for the mental and spiritual benefits of yoga.
After being treated for cancer in 2017, Lindsay found her physical capabilities significantly limited, and her once active lifestyle came to a screeching halt, leading to anxiety and depression. She turned to yin yoga; the only physical practice accessible to her at the time. Its emphasis on breath work, meditation, and gentle, but deep movements helped her to slowly heal.
Lindsay's lifelong passion for social justice work has also shaped her yoga practice. She is involved with Yoga Behind Bars and believes in the power of yoga to help heal trauma as well as to promote peace, community, and social justice. Lindsay loves the outdoors and is an avid hiker, snowshoer, and sailor. You will frequently find her mini–Australian Shepherd by her side. She has been an educator for over thirty years and has a deep passion for learning and development. The limitless opportunity to grow, practice, and evolve is one of her favorite things about yoga!
Quill Fennessy
Quill moved to Olympia from Northern Indiana in her early twenties, where she studied music and psychology at The Evergreen State College. After college, she went on to attain certifications in teaching yoga and also practicing hypnotherapy, while continuing to follow her passion for music and performance. She moved to Seattle from Olympia to live and work as a performing musician, until the pandemic put a halt to live music and changed the course of her life again. She then moved to a horse farm in Snohomish and began to dive back into her first love - movement, and spent most of her time in quarantine learning aerial arts, horseback riding, yoga, and dance.
In her over twenty years of practicing yoga, she has found it to be a powerful tool for remaining in touch with her self, her creativity, and her overall ability to navigate life with passion, intention, and grace. She believes in the power of yoga to create a better life for herself and is very excited and honored to accompany others on their journeys to self empowerment through yoga.
