Our Teachers

Brittany is a registered yoga teacher (E-RYT 200, YACEP) through Yoga Alliance. She earned a B.S. in Kinesiology from Texas A&M University, and trained at Sunstone Yoga Academy. Brittany also trained in Pilates with Balanced Body. She has studied anatomy, yoga philosophy, yoga traditions, as well as acro-yoga. Brittany teaches classes in vinyasa flow style, from beginner level to advanced. Certified by miniyogis, she also teaches yoga for kids.

 As an avid runner and soccer player, Brittany began yoga as a way to prevent injuries and become more flexible. After trying a variety of yoga classes, she began to view yoga not only as a form of exercise but as an outlet. Brittany strongly believes that yoga is designed for all. She encourages each individual to come as they are, use what they have, and do what they can. Yoga has taught her to challenge herself and that the benefits will quickly follow. With a background in physical therapy, Brittany teaches an alignment based class focused on combining breath and movement. She strives to teach each of her students the balance between effort and ease as well as the benefits of the asanas both physically and mentally.

Monique is a registered yoga teacher (RYT) with 200 hours of yoga training in Integrative Yoga Therapy from Sundara Yoga  in Austin, Texas. Hello! My name is Monique and I was born and raised here in Bryan/College Station. I had done yoga on my own off and on with DVDs for about 10 years but then came back to it in earnest in 2012 as a way to get some stress relief. So I enrolled in a class here at Studio Yoga! But what I found and experienced went much beyond stress relief. Do you remember a time, perhaps when you were a child, when just moving was more fun than you could possibly imagine?  Exploring all the different ways our bodies could move with curiosity and wonder with absolutely no judgement? Each movement, no matter what it was, big or small, intricate or jumbled (and sometimes tumbled!) was a celebration. This is what yoga has brought me to remember. Any age, any body, has the opportunity to move, breathe and experience wonderful things. This was all too good not to share so in the fall of 2012, I did a 200 hour yoga training in Integrative Yoga Therapy with Sundara Yoga Therapy in Austin, TX so I could be certified to teach. And here I am.

Oh, and the lovely little redhead sitting next to me.... that's my "niece", Kara, a very exuberant Brittany. I consider her to be the poster child for "joy through movement" which is what I try to bring to each practice.... minus the barking and digging.

I’ve always enjoyed an active lifestyle! As a wife, mother of two, and a proud member of the Texas A&M Class of 2005 (WHOOP), I understand how important it is to find balance in the middle of life’s many demands. These days, I enjoy the intensity of CrossFit, and I use yoga to balance my more active pursuits. Yoga has become an essential part of my routine, helping me improve mobility and flexibility, recover well, and create space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect.

My passion for yoga inspired me to earn my 200-hour RYT certification in 2023. I believe yoga complements every lifestyle, whether you’re an athlete, just beginning your wellness journey, or simply looking for a little more peace and movement in your day.

My goal is to create a welcoming space where students of all levels feel supported, challenged, and encouraged to move in a way that feels right for their bodies. I hope you’ll leave each class feeling stronger, more balanced, and more connected than when you arrived.

I look forward to practicing with you!

Howdy! I am Lexie Allgower and my yoga journey began in 2002 when I took a yoga kinesiology class during my undergrad at Texas A&M University. I fell in love with yoga that semester and that love has only grown. My yoga journey continued and I was introduced to multiple styles and instructors as my life moved me to Austin, Southern California and Houston before settling back in BCS. I’ve also made a goal in taking a yoga class when visiting new cities and countries.

In 2014, I decided to further my own practice and received my 200-hour RYT certification from Lex Gillian at The Yoga Institute in Houston. I’ve continued to add additional hours toward my 500-hour certification with focus on meditation, breath work, and yoga for chronic pain. Additionally, I’ve dabbled in Pilates, Barre and Aerial Yoga as well. Although, I originally had no plans for teaching, I fell into it and fell in love all over again.

As an instructor, my goal is to teach students how to listen to their body and encourage them to form a personal connection with their practice. What’s so amazing about yoga is that every time you come to the mat, you can see and feel progression and improvement, even after years and decades of practice. I look forward to sharing my passion with you!
