Whitney Lacey was born in England and raised in North Carolina. Her love for Yoga began in college, where she found peace from the daily stresses in her practice. Discovering that Yoga was the connector of body and mind that she had been looking for, she decided to cultivate this love into a larger part of her life.  After college graduation she decided to take the next step and completed her teacher training with YogaWorks in 2009 under the direction of Jody Rufty. She continued studying with Andrea Dyer in North Carolina.

Life has since brought her to Austin where she is experiencing each day inspired by the words of T.K.V. Desikachar, “We begin where we are and how we are, and whatever happens, happens.” Whitney enjoys integrating philosophy, alignment, and laughter into her classes. When not on the mat she can be found exploring the Greenbelt, spending time with friends, or in the company of a good book.
