Announcing A New Chapter for Satya Life Yoga

& a continued commitment to our beloved community


Lana Tatom Headley, RYT 500, PhD

will be our new studio owner, starting October 1st, 2026



A Personal Note from Frankie:


Dear friends,


Yes, it is true that my husband and I are moving to Rogersville, Tennessee to live close to our “family” there. My heart is very full in sharing this - full of the joy of this new adventure and full of gratitude for all of the tremendous years that we have shared together. It has been a privilege to create this sanctuary for us in Lakeland and to know each one of you. This new chapter for the studio and for myself is about expansion, not retirement. Our studio will continue to thrive under the leadership of Lana and our experienced teachers and will foster new generations of teachers and students on the path of yoga. It is a time for all of us to soar. I know that our team is ready for this transition and I will be there to support them along the way. Lana and I have plans for me to return to Satya Life Yoga multiple times throughout the year to teach both classes and private sessions. And for those of you who wish to continue to study with me more frequently, in person or online, in classes or privately, there will be plenty of opportunities. I will be here full time teaching until October 1st, 2026 and we will share many classes, conversations, hugs, and plans for the future. As always, I am here to support you in anyway I can...


About Lana Tatom Headley, RYT500, PhD

Being a part of the Satya Life community and family has been an extraordinary life-changing experience!


I came to the studio for the first time on my birthday, 18 years ago. That was my beginning of being a part of this beautiful yoga community and family that I cherish, especially with Frankie one of my soul sisters. She has been my sister, friend, teacher, & mentor along with everyone here at Satya Life. Our Satya Life community & family has supported each other through the best and hardest moments of our lives.


I always wanted to become a yoga teacher and thanks to Frankie, she made that dream a reality. I have completed my 200 hour yoga teacher training in 2012 and have been teaching yoga in the Carillon Lakes community along with teachers and students in Polk County Schools periodically since then (including a few yoga classes with our goats!). I completed my 300 hour yoga teacher training in 2025, and have taught a few Friday night restorative classes at the studio which I’m looking forward to doing more throughout the summer and in the upcoming year along with some intermediate yoga classes on Saturdays. I also plan on continuing our holiday yoga classes followed by our traditional lunches. 


I have really enjoyed hosting Sunday yoga teacher training at my home over the past couple years with two amazing and inspirational groups.


One of my greatest passions in life is growing the next generation of teachers and leaders which I have been doing for over 30 years now.


I have a Doctor of Education Degree from Florida Southern College; a Specialist Degree from Nova Southeastern University in Curriculum, Instruction, Management, and Administration; a Bachelors Degree of Science; and a Masters of Arts Degree from Eastern Michigan University.


As Frankie and Pete will be starting a new chapter of their lives in Tennessee, I am looking forward to helping foster our new teachers along with our master yoga teachers to follow in Frankie’s footsteps as we continue keeping our Satya Life community and family thriving to help everyone live their best lives! Everything in life happens for a reason, everything we have accomplished on our journeys through life has prepared us for this moment in time. In my heart I know that the training that Frankie has provided all of us with will keep our yoga community & family thriving along with her ongoing support.


We have been brainstorming ideas as we start a new chapter of our lives. This is the beginning of something magical and meant to be for all of us. I know that together we are going to continue to make Satya Life an extraordinary experience for everyone. Thank you for your support, love, and the continuation of our Satya Life yoga community and family.


Namaste, Lana

Lana's positive spirit will be contagious for our team of teachers & all our students. I treasure this about her & want to let you know how much you will enjoy her presence and leadership. Love & Namaste, Frankie
