Meg Stevenson
Meg has been a dedicated yoga practitioner for over 20 years, since her first experience on the mat transformed her outlook on life. Yoga quickly became her sanctuary—a space for profound self-connection and discovery. This journey instilled a deep sense of peace and gratitude, leading her to transition from a background in psychology to a calling as a yoga instructor.
Her training spans the globe, having studied under some of the most respected leaders in the industry. This diverse and well-rounded education allows Meg to make yoga accessible to practitioners of all levels, with a focus on both physical and mental well-being.
Over her 18 years of teaching, Meg noticed a disconnect between the industry’s push for intensity. Meg shares her unique approach: a blend of stability, strength, and precise, intentional cuing that invites students to explore how each posture feels in their unique bodies, rather than focusing solely on appearance. Her sessions empower students to realize their physical potential while delving into the deeper aspects of yoga, encouraging them to carry these teachings into daily life and live from the heart.
Melissa Stewart

Melissa received her Registered Yoga Teacher with over 500 hours of training and she has enhanced her skill set with a Chakra and Asana Certification so that she can infuse her teachings with chakra energy.
Melissa has a passion for food and is certified in Raw Food & Alkaline Nutrition as well as Vegan Nutrition.

CASA Mental Health
Peace In The Park, an annual event orchestrated by Strength and Grace Yoga founder Meg Stevenson, was born out of her commitment to fundraise for the Africa Yoga Project.

As we eagerly anticipate the 10th edition in 2024, the event remains a testament to our unwavering dedication to fostering well-being and making a positive impact in the community.
