Amy Hogan

Amy began practicing yoga in 2001 in Charleston, SC, initially seeking relief from corporate stress. Over time, yoga became more than just a practice—it inspired a deep commitment to a healthy, conscious lifestyle. After relocating to Austin in 2011, Amy left the corporate world to pursue a passion for wellness, earning an E-RYT 200 certification at Yoga Yoga in Austin and founding Total Balance Yoga, which brought yoga to local businesses.

Amy’s teaching journey deepened through advanced training with international teachers Sadie Nardini and Amy Ippoliti, accumulating over 500 hours of study focused on alignment, core strength, and heart-centered practice. Amy Ippoliti’s mentorship continues to inspire and shape Amy’s approach.

In 2015, Amy opened Studio Mantra Yoga and Massage Studio, serving Northwest Austin for five years before evolving into Mantra Yoga Collective in 2020, offering livestream and outdoor classes to keep the community connected through the pandemic and beyond. In 2024, the Mantra  community evolved into Retreat Yoga + Soulful Fitness in Northwest Austin…where it continues to thrive today, led by Amy and her business partner/yoga sister, Tracy Liberman

Amy’s classes are challenging yet playful, motivating yet mindful, and always theme-based to help students understand and apply ancient yoga wisdom to modern life. Amy enjoys curating diverse music playlists, from DJ Drez to Willie Nelson, as music inspires her practice and her life! Her goal is to create a welcoming space for students of all levels and abilities, fostering growth and connection. And Amy LOVES hosting women’s retreats with Tracy in beautiful destinations worldwide, sharing the transformative power of yoga beyond the studio!

Tracy Liberman

Mountain girl at heart turned proud Texan, Tracy began her journey in the fitness world in 1997 as the director of a children’s gymnastics center. In 2001, she moved into a program directing role at a local Pilates studio. What started as a few daily yoga classes quickly turned into a life-changing passion. Tracy promptly shifted her focus and began formal yoga teacher training. Shortly thereafter, she earned her Hatha certification through Yoga Yoga Teacher Training in Austin, Texas, and became a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) through the Yoga Alliance.

After teaching for a time and becoming a mother, Tracy naturally gravitated toward prenatal and postnatal yoga. She completed both trainings with Leslie Lytle in 2005, deepening her understanding of how yoga can support women through every stage of motherhood.

As her teaching evolved, Tracy fell in love with the expressive, dynamic nature of vinyasa flow. She began integrating this fluid style into all her classes—from power flow to slow flow, and especially in her prenatal and postnatal offerings. Vinyasa became her signature method, combining breath, movement, and rhythm in a way that inspires strength and ease.

A lifelong student at heart, Tracy continues to attend workshops and trainings whenever she can. She believes the most beautiful part of yoga is that “there is no perfecting it—there is always something new to discover in every breath.”

Her teaching style is fun-loving and intuitive, with a strong emphasis on rhythm and flow. She draws inspiration from luminaries such as B.K.S. Iyengar, Shiva Rea, Ana Forrest, and Kathryn Budig. Each class is thoughtfully crafted and adapted to meet the energy and needs of her students—who inspire her every time she steps on her mat.

You’ll often find Tracy’s classes set to an eclectic playlist—think Yaz, Krishna Das, Toto, and the Dixie Chicks all in one class. Tracy is beyond excited to reunite with her dear friend and colleague, Amy Hogan, for this unforgettable retreat in paradise. She can’t wait to share her mat and her heart with you all.
