Schuyler Grant is a world-renowned yoga teacher, the founder and co-director of Kula Yoga Project and the co-creator of Wanderlust.

Schuyler grew up on a small communal property in Northern California. As soon as she was able, she fled the farm for the mean streets of NYC and Columbia University, where she pursued acting and filmmaking, and was pursued by Jeff Krasno, now her beloved partner of 30 plus years. Schuyler opened Kula Yoga Project just 2 blocks north of Ground Zero in 2002, in an effort to help bring some heart and community back to Lower Manhattan. (She never envisioned becoming a full-time teacher and studio owner - but sometimes life has its own logic.) In 2009, she co-created the Wanderlust Festival with Jeff and Sean Hoess, their best friend from college. The next decade was spent making babies, birthing festivals around the world, and holding down her beloved studio in NYC. In 2015, she moved back to the Left Coast to help open Wanderlust Hollywood, but Kula is still a haven for intelligent practitioners in SOHO and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, thanks to her brilliant partner in Kula crime, Nikki Vilella.

Schuyler's signature style of practice and her advanced Kula Flow trainings have influenced thousands of teachers and studio owners worldwide. Schuyler is known for being low key and approachable yet demanding and precise. She was a creator of the 200 and 300 hour trainings for both Kula and Wanderlust, and her trainings have been a destination for students and teachers for over twenty years. She continues to add to the dozens of on-line yoga courses and trainings hosted on the Commune platform and teaches ongoing online classes on Kula’s virtual platform. If you want to find her in person, she hosts many retreats throughout the year. (She’s hoping to someday find the perfect venue and partner for a Kula West. Don’t be shy to reach out if you have deep pockets and a line on a light filled, brick walled space in LA!) 

She is especially proud of a detour she took into Empowered Birth, a deeply impactful course on pregnancy, labor & delivery, and early post-partum, which she hosted and co-produced for Commune. She’s both happy and bemused to have come full circle: A healthy food cooking, composting, chicken-raising mother to three daughters, all of whom she birthed at home.
