About Stacey Bell:
Stacey Bell is an alignment-based yoga instructor, Alexander technique facilitator and Biodynamic Craniosacral therapist with more than 25 years of experience in the wellness field. She is the director of the 200-hour vinyasa and 35-hour yin yoga teacher trainings at Powerflow Yoga and is the founder of Yogabell Wellness.
Whether in group classes or private classes, Stacey’s students learn to inhabit their bodies with functionality and grace.

She offers customized tools including therapeutic yoga, breathing techniques, meditation and Craniosacral therapy to help students mitigate the impact of stress on their nervous system. Her warmth, knowledge and authenticity ease clients into a place of inner calm and wholeness.
Stacey’s love of mind-body modalities began with a 600-hour training of the Alexander Technique. She then completed her foundation yoga teacher training at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health with subsequent study and exploration in Raja Yoga with teachers Yoganand Michael Carroll and Stephen Cope. Stacey has since expanded these principles with studies in the methodology of vinyasa, yin and restorative yoga. Her teaching is greatly influenced by the devout study of the Iyengar method with her primary teachers, Mary Sinclair and Lisa Rotell. Stacey also did a deep dive into a 900-hour Craniosacral Therapy training through Franklyn Sills’ Karuna Institute. She did a post-certification study of Energetic Stillness with Mike Boxhall; Embryological study with Jaap Van de Waal, MD; and Embryological applications with Katherine Ukleja, DO.
Along the way, Stacey has been influenced by renowned teachers including Alan Finger, Dharma Mittra, Sarah Powers, Sharon Salzberg, Irene Dowd, Erich Schiffman, Maty Ezraty and more.
Stacey owned and operated two successful yoga studios: Mindful Movement in Manhattan and Yoga Samadhi in Greenwich, CT. She is featured in Time Out and Nickelodeon magazines and the Greenwich Times.
About Judith Hengeveld:
Judith Hengeveld is E-RYT 200 teacher working on her 300-hour certificate to become a Registered Yoga Medicine Therapeutic Specialist. Judith’s own yoga journey began after college in the late 1990s. She was drawn to the elegance of movement that led to strength and flexibility for both mind and body. As an asthmatic, the focus on breathwork also helped strengthen and rejuvenate her lungs. A true passion developed after the birth of her children when she discovered hot power vinyasa and yin yoga. The physical and mental challenge of both the yin and the yang was life-affirming and therapeutic.
Judith has dual degrees in art history and anthropology from Montclair State University. She completed her initial 200-hour training and certification in November 2015. She has also completed two 35-hour yin yoga trainings and several modules with Yoga Medicine Online in anatomy and physiology and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Judith strives to share this knowledge with her students in classes that are challenging but accessible. She teaches students to be curious about the inner working of their bodies, using creative sequencing, relatable philosophy and the power of pranayama. Her goal is for students to take the lessons of each practice, pose and breath off the mat and out into the world.
