Esteffany Smith-ChavezDelgado

At the invitation of her father, Esteff first stepped on a mat in 2004 and felt  she arrived home. For the next couple of years, they kept a weekly yoga date.  Yoga has remained a central part of her life. Esteff believes that in our modern world, we live in our minds and forget about our breath and body. Yoga helps ground us by reconnecting our body, mind, emotions and spirit during and after practice. She was born and raised in Lima, Peru, and draws on her cross-cultural sensitivity and her knowledge of alignment and anatomy to guide her when adjusting yoga poses. Esteff is a certified yoga teacher and is working on her advanced certification at Thrive. Esteff’s classes aim to challenge students physically, while encouraging them to become more aware of their whole being.
