Stephanie Eggert

The development of the course, “Work-life Balance – Blueprint for Vitality,” (MDA 300) gives students practical tools using quantum energy practices to experience their optimum health, creativity, clarity and overall energy. 

She introduced the Kundalini Yoga and Meditation curriculum at USC in 2016. This course is part of the Mind-Body Minor. Students consistently re-take this class for the vast transformational experience. 

She also teaches the courses Principles of Athletic Coaching and Stress Management for Healthy Living. Her teaching style and class content gives students an opportunity to step into a deeper, more right-brained way of achieving energetic outcomes while still in an academic setting. Applied creative and energetic techniques for increased positive mental and physical health are the cornerstone of her classes. 

Students have found tremendous life-improvement with various meditations that break addictions, improve energy, and help with mental clarity and focus. 

In 2015, female participants from her classes began the practice of deeply understanding the yogic teachings of how 11 specific Moon Centers influence mood, emotions, and energy of women. The exploration and constant discovery of these energies through the semesters has lead to great empowerment and development of several women-run organizations on campus that assist other students to organize and deeply understand their energy better. 

Eggert received her B.S. in Psychology at Loyola University in Baltimore, MD where she captained the Top-10 Nationally ranked Women’s Lacrosse team. After college, she played for the United States National Team, was a nationally ranked triathlete, and began her coaching career at Duke University, another college lacrosse powerhouse. After several years of coaching and teaching at Duke, she later received her M.S. in Kinesiology & Sport Psychology, where her research focused the mental benefits of practicing yoga, mental attitudes of female athletes, and Flow States.

She continues to coach elite athletes in physical and meditative training in addition to holistic nutrition methods to support peak performance. 

She has co-published research on female athletes and frequently contributes to news and information publications on health and wellness. Her travels have extended to Nepal, Tibet, Scotland, India, Egypt, and other power-points throughout the world.
