Meet Your Teacher Training Team
Lindsey r
Lindsey is the Owner and Founder of LIGHT HOUSE Yoga + Fitness with a passion for Yoga Sculpt and helping others live their best lives.
She completed Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training in 2015 and immediately embarked on a teaching career at multiple studios across the Twin Cities. She finished her 200-hour Power Yoga Teacher Training soon after, further deepening her expertise.
Driven by her mission to uplift, her dedication to spreading the benefits of yoga and igniting the “light” in others led her to open her own studio. LIGHT HOUSE opened in 2019 and quickly became a beacon of positivity, offering a sanctuary where movement, music, and community serve as medicine for the body, mind, and spirit.
Lindsey is thrilled to introduce the very first Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training at LIGHT HOUSE. With an all-star team and a meticulously planned program, she is excited to deliver a transformative and premier experience that will enhance your life and leave you feeling confident and stronger than ever before.
Lindsey’s biggest piece of advice:
If you’ve ever felt even the slightest nudge inside to do teacher training, DO. IT. Whether you hope to teach, are just looking to deepen your knowledge, or aren’t totally sure, I can’t express how positive and life-changing this experience is. It won’t necessarily be easy, but I can assure you, it will be worth it.
Vanessa
Vanessa began her teaching journey at the of 16 when she first embarked on Yoga Sculpt teacher training through CorePower Yoga in 2012.
Upon certification, Vanessa began teaching right away and furthered her knowledge in the next couple of years with 200-hour Power Yoga teacher training, where she deepened her understanding of anatomy and sequencing effective and safe yoga classes.
Vanessa has continued to teach Yoga Sculpt and Power Yoga classes through the years, and previously assisted in leading Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training at CorePower Yoga.
Vanessa can’t wait for the new opportunity to help lead the first-ever Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training at LIGHT HOUSE Yoga + Fitness. She particularly looks forward to sharing her accumulated knowledge of safe and effective workouts, and helping you to find your unique voice as you step onto your teaching mat!
Vanessa’s biggest piece of advice:
We’ll learn the basics of teaching a great yoga sculpt class together, but the secret sauce to any class is…. YOU! There is no one perfect teacher, but instead – great teachers who all maximize their strengths, and feel free to giggle through their weaknesses. We’re all human.
Jaime
Jaime is delighted to be a part of the esteemed LIGHT HOUSE Yoga + Fitness’ Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training program. Her teaching journey started in 2019 at the beautiful age of 37, demonstrating that it’s never too late to pursue one’s passion.
Upon obtaining her Yoga Sculpt certification, Jaime discovered her home at LIGHT HOUSE. In the transformative year of 2020, she seized the opportunity to further enrich her skills by completing her 200-Hour Power Yoga Teacher Training certification online. Since then, she has adeptly led various yoga formats, including Yoga Sculpt and Power Yoga at LIGHT HOUSE, revealing her enthusiasm for yoga instruction. She is eager to apply her passion and expertise, imparting the wisdom she has gained to others, in alignment with the adage, “To teach is to learn twice,” by Joseph Joubert.
Jaime’s biggest piece of advice:
Always remember what initially drew you to yoga. Every individual is a unique gift, brimming with talents meant to be shared. She encourages others to recognize the strength, both mental and physical, that lies within and to trust the transformative process. Yes, You Can.

Sam
In 2014, Sam rekindled her passion for yoga and her dedication quickly transformed into a desire to share yoga’s magic with others.
She completed her 200-hr Power Yoga Teacher certification with CorePower Yoga in 2015, followed by a Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training in 2016. Her journey included a second 200-hr training in Hot Yoga, continuous education courses, and meditation retreats across the country. Sam is so grateful and appreciative of all her experiences + training with CorePower and throughout the country, but she has never been happier teaching than she is at LIGHT HOUSE Yoga + Fitness. In her own words, “This place is just… so special.” Sam teaches a range of different yoga classes, but her heart is in the world of restorative yoga.
Samantha’s biggest piece of advice:
Please let go of the idea of perfection to make room for having FUN. Especially with Yoga Sculpt, if the teacher is having fun, the students are too! Refining your words and sequences will only come with time and practice, and there will be little bumps along the way but that’s part of it, so don’t be hard on yourself! Finally, you are meant to be here. Don’t give imposter syndrome a moment of energy. Exactly where you are right now, is exactly where we all started and you have everything you need to share the gift of yoga with the world, already within you.
