This class is taught by:

Joyce Murlless

Joyce's enthusiasm and passion are evident in every class. She creates an uplifting and empowering atmosphere that leaves her students feeling energized and motivated.

Joyce has always valued curiosity, as that is how she learns. The “bring list” for the wilderness expeditions she used to lead ended with “Bring all 5 senses, plus the sixth — your sense of curiosity.” Fifteen years ago she got curious enough about yoga to attend her first class; that was one of the luckiest days of her life. Yoga at Savannah Power Yoga had renewed and refocused her curiosity, improved her balance (body and mind), and stretched and strengthened her muscles, mind, and spirit. So she finally retired (again), completed the yoga instructor training, and is certified RYT-200 by Yoga Alliance. Now she can inspire others and help spread the joy that yoga has brought to her.

What our students are saying:
“Great pace, great cues with uplifting voice!” - Dagmar F
“Joyce is an outstanding teacher. She has a sense of effort and ease and paces her classes with that in mind.” - Paula S

Emily Spencer

Emily started practicing yoga as a teenager to recover from swimming and cross country. She fell in love with the practice and has been exploring the teachings of yoga ever since. She obtained her RYT200 in 2012 and has taught in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Indiana before putting roots down in Savannah, teaching primarily vinyasa flow and yin.

She just completed her RYT 500 training with Jason Crandell in 2023. She is passionate about making the benefits of yoga accessible and more approachable, helping people of all ages move and breathe with more freedom. She also teaches teens tools for athletic recovery and self regulation, and chair yoga to improve mobility.

Outside of the studio she stays busy felt crafting, jewelry making and watercolor painting. Her son is her greatest teacher and you can find them kayaking and adventuring through the marshes.

What our studnets are saying:

"Thanks, Emily. Great class." - Liz M.
