All Yoga on the Beach programs are currently led by Amy Hubbell, a certified yoga teacher since 2010. Inspired by a love of water and the expansive beaches of Leelanau County, she co-founded Yoga on the Beach that same summer, and has taught lakeside classes in northern Michigan ever since.

Amy also leads year-round yoga hikes at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and other local trails, combining her passion for yoga and fitness with her love of nature. She offers year-round private, studio and online classes and is a certified sound healing practitioner.

A former non-profit fundraiser, Amy believes in giving back and has held many classes benefiting various conservation, public health and social justice organizations. Among many other amazing mentors, she is especially grateful to have studied with Sandra Carden of Union/Yoga in Lake Leelanau, yoga therapist Susi Hately of Functional Synergy in Calgary, and the brilliant teachers of yoga, meditation and Ayurveda at the Himalayan Institute in Honesdale, PA.

By encouraging her students to connect with the present moment and their most authentic selves through the practice of yoga, Amy seeks to empower others to tap into their own capacity for healing and live up to their full potential.
