Lily Engebrecht

Lily was first drawn to Baptiste yoga for its dynamic physical challenge and as a welcome, heated reprieve from Buffalo winters. What began as a way to build strength and flexibility soon evolved into something much deeper. Through her practice at Reach, she has learned that finding stillness in discomfort opens the door to deeper self-awareness. It has given her the space to truly listen and discover more about herself from within.

In both her personal practice and her teaching, Lily encourages students to find ease within challenge, to tune into the body's inner wisdom, and to cultivate stillness through a powerful, connective breath, something that can be hard to access elsewhere. Her intention is to guide students toward a sense of inner balance, resilience, and grounded stillness, wherever they are on their journey.
