One of the things Tracy loves about yoga is the way it grants access to the present moment. Quieting the mind while focusing on the breath creates space for reconnecting with our true nature. Observing ourselves in yoga practice allows awareness to grow, transcend, and transform all aspects of life.

Alicia is a meditation teacher, mentor and holistic coach. She has been teaching yoga and meditation for almost 20 years and was the owner of Ashtanga Yoga Richmond for 14 years. A seeker by nature, Alicia landed in her first yoga class in her late 20’s and has since been listening and following a wish to live more consciously and awake. Her background is rooted in ashtanga yoga which eventually led her to meditation where she continues to be in an inner work with her teacher Pat Buxton. Learning to sit, peeling back the layers of her humanness, and using the material of her life - the ordinary moments to the most challenging conditions - has been most influential in creating real change and given Alicia the opportunity to experience herself differently.

Hailey officially joined Humble Haven as a student and member of the front desk crew in 2018, just before her final year at VCU, and quickly realized how special the teachers and community of HHY were, along with the extensive benefits of a sustained yoga practice.Hailey completed her 200 HR YTT with Humble Haven in 2020 and continued her part time role at the studio while pursuing a career in Marketing. After a few years of working for local Marketing agencies, Hailey kicked off 2023 by taking on the role of Marketing Manager for Humble Haven, allowing her to combine her personal and professional interests (and skills), as well as her passion for wellness.
