Erica Stanzione
Yoga and Meditation Educator
Growing up as an athlete, Erica always felt a strong connection to physical movement. It wasn’t until her early-twenties that she desired a stronger connection to her emotional self and a deeper sense of fulfillment within that movement. Since 2003, she has been a devoted yoga student practicing and studying all over the world which led her to completing extensive certifications, and truly learning the depth of work that she was meant to share in this lifetime. Erica guides public classes and a private clientele in Manhattan and New Jersey as well as hosts wellness retreats both domestically and internationally with offerings that have included Mexico, France, Spain, Iceland, Ecuador, Morocco, and Italy. She has also taken her passion for fostering community and created a transformative Yoga Alliance certified 200-Hour Teacher Training program that she leads each year, and has graduated ninety-five trainees as of 2025.
Erica’s unique style of classes, workshops, getaways, and trainings are strongly driven by the emotional and spiritual aspects of the practice, but will also invite in empowering levels of strength both mentally and physically. The intention behind everything that she creates is to serve as a sacred container where her students feel safe to step further into their power, confidence, emotional intelligence, spiritual connection, and evolution. Erica’s breathwork, meditation, yoga, and journaling practices have radically shifted, healed, and elevated every single aspect of her life, and she is eternally grateful to be able to share these life-changing tools with every yogi that she is blessed to cross paths with!
